Phil Risher explains why AI answering services beat voicemail for service businesses. An AI system captures caller info and schedules appointments directly in your CRM, while voicemail leads to slow follow-up and lost revenue. Jobber includes native AI answering built in.
AI agent is better than your voicemail. If you get calls and you miss them after hours, on a job site, on the weekends, all those things, and it's going to your voicemail, you are losing revenue. I'm not saying AI is the best thing to answer phone calls. What I am saying is that it's better than your voicemail because if you have an AI answering service that links up with your CRM, you can capture all the customer's information and even schedule them. If you do not have an AI answering service and it's going to voicemail, then you're fumbling around trying to call this person back. Hey, can you text me your phone number over here to do the da da da? Don't do that. Use AI answering service that connects with your CRM, and the best one is Jobber. Jobber has this already built in natively. You to do anything. If you want to try it out, I'll put a link in the comments.
