Sound familiar?
• Nobody picks up after 5 / on Saturday
• They’re on the next Google result before you see the voicemail
• Blank voicemails — you need name, phone, address, what’s broken
• You’re on a job; the inbox can wait — the lead won’t
Built for owners who still run trucks
Local service shops — especially HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and roofing — with roughly 1–20 trucks and a live website. If Google or LSA already sends you calls, Dusktender covers the after-hours site path those ads don’t.
Not for: No website and won’t get one · medical/legal advice bots · full CRM rebuilds · DIY chatbot logins.
