AI Automation Setup — Miss Fewer Calls, Win More Jobs
You're a plumber, electrician, builder, or chippy. You're on the tools all day. You miss 10-15 calls a week. Each one is worth $200-2,000. AI automation catches them.
The 6 Automations Every Tradie Needs
These aren't "nice to have" features. These are the difference between a $80K year and a $120K year for most Adelaide tradies.
Missed-Call Text-Back
Catches 80%+ of missed callsYou're under a house, on a roof, or elbow-deep in a switchboard. You can't answer. AI texts the caller back in 20 seconds, qualifies the job, and books it into your calendar.
Quote Follow-Up That Actually Happens
30-40% more quotes acceptedYou sent the quote Tuesday. It's Friday. You forgot to follow up. AI sends the nudge for you — professionally, in your voice, at the right time.
Invoice Chasing Without the Awkwardness
25-40% faster paymentAI sends payment reminders at 3 days, 7 days, 14 days. Polite but persistent. You don't have to make the 'hey mate, about that invoice' call.
Review Collection on Autopilot
3-5x more reviews per monthJob done → AI sends Google review link 24 hours later. One gentle reminder at day 7. Your rating climbs while you're on the tools.
After-Hours Call Handling
Never miss a $2K emergency jobEmergency call at 9pm? AI answers, qualifies urgency, books the job or escalates to your mobile. You decide what counts as urgent.
Booking Confirmations & Reminders
50-70% fewer no-showsCustomer books Tuesday 9am. AI confirms Monday arvo, reminds Tuesday 8am. No-shows drop. Your schedule stays full.
Works With Your Existing Tools
We don't replace your software. We make it smarter. AI plugs into what you're already using:
Don't see your tool? Ask us — we probably integrate with it.
How It Works
We Map Your Workflow
30-60 min callWe look at how calls, quotes, and admin are currently handled. Where are you losing leads? What's the first automation that pays for itself?
We Build & Connect
2-5 business daysWe configure the AI, connect it to your ServiceM8/Tradify/Jobber, write your scripts, test everything, and train you on the walkthrough call.
You Stop Losing Leads
OngoingEvery missed call gets texted back. Every quote gets followed up. Every invoice gets chased. You focus on the tools, we keep the system running.
Real Example: Electrician in Morphett Vale
Before: Missing 12-15 calls a week. Most went to voicemail. Maybe 2 called back. Lost roughly $3,000-4,000/month in missed work.
After: AI texts back every missed call in 20 seconds. Books 6-8 extra jobs a month. Caught a $12,000 switchboard upgrade from a 6pm call he would have missed.
ROI: $350/month cost. $3,500+/month in recovered jobs. Paid for itself week one.
What It Costs
Every tradie's setup is different. A plumber with ServiceM8 and Google Calendar is different from a builder using Tradify and Xero.
Here's how pricing works:
- 1.Book a free audit. We map your workflow — calls, quotes, invoicing, calendar. 30-60 min.
- 2.We quote your specific setup. One-off setup + monthly subscription. No surprises, no hourly billing.
- 3.You decide. Proceed and we start building. Don't proceed, you keep the audit as a roadmap.
Why we don't list pricing here: A solo plumber and a 5-person electrical crew have completely different needs. Public pricing would either scare one of you off or underquote the other. A 30-minute audit means you get a real number based on your actual situation.

Common Questions
How much does AI automation setup cost for tradies?
Depends on your setup. Most tradies start with missed-call text-back and quote follow-up — that combo usually pays for itself in the first month if you're missing 2-3 calls a week. Book a free audit and we'll quote your specific workflow.
Do I need to change my phone number or software?
No. Your number stays the same. We connect to whatever you're already using — ServiceM8, Tradify, Jobber, Xero, Google Calendar. If you don't use job management software yet, we can recommend one that fits your trade.
What if the AI says something wrong to a customer?
It's trained on your scripts and your business info. It knows what it can answer (pricing, availability, booking) and what it should escalate (technical questions, complaints, quotes). If it's unsure, it takes a message and you call back. You set the rules.
Can it handle after-hours emergencies?
Yes. You define what counts as an emergency (burst pipe, no power, gas leak). AI qualifies the call, books it if it fits your criteria, or escalates straight to your mobile if it's urgent. You decide when you want to be woken up.
How long does setup take?
2-5 business days from our first call to going live. We do the work — you just need to be available for a 30-60 minute kickoff call and a 30-minute handover call.
Is the audit really free?
Yes — 30-60 minutes, no charge, no obligation. We'll map your workflows, identify what you're losing, and quote your setup. If you proceed, great. If you don't, you keep the audit as a roadmap. We ask that you only book if you're genuinely considering automation — we're busy building systems, not just selling them.
What if I want to cancel?
No lock-in. Cancel anytime. You keep any custom scripts or configurations we built. The AI platform stops working, but your business keeps running like it did before (just with more missed calls again).
