Who's behind DeskJay
Hi, I'm [Your name].
DeskJay is a small company based in [Your town], Ontario. We build your website, set up your answering and job book, and test it with you before it takes a single customer call. When you need something, you talk to the person who set it up, not a call centre.
Questions
Things people ask us
Will my customers hate talking to an AI?
Most callers just want their problem handled. DeskJay picks up on the first ring, sounds natural, and puts them through to you whenever they ask for a person.
Will it make things up?
No. We decide together what it can answer, what it takes a message about, and what gets transferred to you. If it doesn't know, it says so and flags it for you.
What if it books the wrong job?
You set what it can book, when and for how long. Every booking lands in your job book with the call summary, so you can move or cancel it in seconds and the customer gets a text.
Is there a guarantee?
Every call answered, 24/7, or that month is free.
Do I keep my number?
Yes. DeskJay answers when you can't, on the number customers already know.
Does it sound natural?
It speaks clearly, uses your business's name and details, and handles the back-and-forth of a real call. Callers can interrupt it or change their mind.
What's the job book?
It's where DeskJay writes down everything for you: who called, where they live, what's wrong, when you're booked to go, and a recording of the call. Think of the notebook or calendar you keep now, except it fills itself in. It works on your phone.
Who decides what's urgent?
You do. You set the rules for what gets transferred right away.
What happens if I don't answer a transfer?
DeskJay follows your backup instructions, such as trying a second number or taking a detailed message and texting it to you.
Do I have to be available 24/7?
No. DeskJay is. Customers can call at 11:30 p.m. without you answering at 11:30 p.m.
How quickly can you set it up?
We give you a setup date before you sign up. Most of the work is ours: we learn your business, set your rules and test it with you.
Where are my call recordings stored?
Before you sign up, we tell you exactly where recordings and transcripts are kept and for how long.
I already use Jobber or Housecall Pro. Does it work with that?
Yes. DeskJay syncs customers and bookings to Jobber, Housecall Pro, Google Calendar or Outlook. No software yet? The DeskJay job book is included.
Does it speak French?
Yes. DeskJay answers in English or French, whichever the caller uses.
Is there a setup fee?
No. We set it up, connect it and test it with you at no charge. Then try it free for 14 days.
Do you build websites too?
Yes. We build websites for local businesses, made to compete in local search and connected to DeskJay, so every call, text and form they bring in gets answered.
Can I cancel?
Yes. No long-term contract, no credit card for the 14-day trial, and nothing to pay during it.
Never send another good lead to voicemail.
