Small pest control business owner needs an after-hours answering and job booking service to avoid missing or mishandling evening calls.
Current solutions either deliver messages too late (11pm emails) or rely on personal cell interception, which is unreliable when staff are busy. None provide real-time intake and direct calendar booking.
