1

Save Thousands Each Month

Answering services charge per call or per month and often add up to hundreds of dollars. AgentBuddy costs a flat $249 per month with unlimited calls for your entire plumbing business. That is a fraction of what you would pay a human receptionist or a per-call service.

2

Never Miss a Hot Water Cylinder Call Again

Plumbing emergencies happen at any time. Answering services may not have the specific knowledge to prioritise a burst pipe over a tap drip. AgentBuddy understands your trade and can book emergency jobs instantly, even after hours.

3

Get Accurate Quotes from a Photo

You send photos of the job and AgentBuddy writes a professional quote in seconds. No more back and forth with an answering service that has no clue about pipe sizes or fitting costs. Your client gets a quote fast.

4

Chase Down Unpaid Invoices on Autopilot

Answering services don't follow up on unpaid invoices. AgentBuddy sends reminders and chases payment on your behalf. That means you get paid faster without lifting a finger.

5

Book Jobs Without Double Handling

With an answering service you often have to call the client back to confirm details. AgentBuddy syncs with your calendar and books jobs directly. Your client gets a confirmed time slot instantly.
