An AI receptionist for landscapers

You can't hear your phone over a blower, and most calls come in while you're mid-job or after dinner when someone's looking at their overgrown yard. CallerIQ answers when you don't, finds out what the caller needs, and gets you the details so you can call back and book the work. It runs through your existing number with call forwarding, so there's nothing new to give out.

A REAL CALL

A homeowner calls at seven in the evening after staring at her backyard all through dinner, wanting someone to start mowing regularly.

Caller: Hi, is this the landscaping company? My yard's gotten out of control. CallerIQ: It is. I can get your info to the owner right now. Can I grab your address and a bit about the yard? Caller: Sure, it's a corner lot, mostly flat, maybe a quarter acre. I'd want it done every other week. CallerIQ: Got it, every other week for a quarter acre lot. What's the best number to reach you at for a quote? Caller: This one's fine. CallerIQ: Perfect, you'll hear back soon.

The owner's summary shows the address, yard size, that it's a recurring every-other-week job, and the callback number, ready before the next job wraps up.

The calls you're losing

Why landscapers miss calls

You're behind the mower

Between the mower, the blower, and the trimmer, you can't hear a ringtone from six feet away. By the time you check your phone, the caller has already tried the next name on their list.

Evening is prime time to call

Homeowners look at their yard after work and call that night, when you're off the clock and not checking your phone. Those calls go to voicemail and often stay there.

A missed sign-up is recurring revenue lost

A mowing sign-up isn't a one-time job, it's a season of visits. Miss that first call and you don't just lose a cleanup, you lose the whole account.

Voicemail slows down design and cleanup leads

Design consults and one-off cleanup quotes are time-sensitive. Callers asking for quotes want an answer, and a full voicemail box makes them assume you're too busy to bother.

How it works

Three steps, one dial code.

01

Forward your missed calls

One dial code sets up conditional call forwarding with your carrier. Your number stays your number; only the calls you don’t answer route to CallerIQ.

02

CallerIQ answers

It greets the caller in the voice and greeting you chose, finds out who they are and what they need, and captures the details, using only the business information you gave it.

03

You get the summary

Who called, why, and what to do next, in a clean report you can read in seconds. Real callers get through; spam doesn’t.

What your callers hearA caller hears a clear greeting in the voice and words you set, then gets asked what they need and where the property is. CallerIQ says plainly that it's an AI receptionist. It's not pretending to be a person, but it's patient, it doesn't rush anyone off the phone, and it gets the same details you'd ask for yourself: address, yard size and scope, whether it's a one-time job or recurring, and a callback number.
And the spam?Equipment financing pitches and fuel card telemarketers call landscapers constantly, usually right when you're mid-mow and can't screen them. CallerIQ recognizes robocalls and spam patterns, turns them away, and can happily waste a live scammer's time instead of yours. Real customers get through and land in your summary. The junk doesn't.
Questions

What landscapers ask us

Do I need a new phone number for my crew or trucks?+
No. CallerIQ works through call forwarding on the number you already use. Nothing changes on your business cards or your truck door.
Can it tell the difference between a mowing sign-up and a design consult request?+
Yes. It asks what the caller needs and captures the scope, whether that's a recurring mow, a one-off cleanup quote, or a design consult, so you know how to prioritize the callback.
What happens if a current customer calls to change their schedule?+
CallerIQ takes down the request and the callback number, and it shows up clearly in your summary so you can confirm the change without playing phone tag.
Will it try to sound like a real person answering my business?+
No. It tells callers it's an AI receptionist. You set the greeting and the voice, but it never pretends to be a human on your team.
Can I turn it off during busy season if I want to answer calls myself?+
Yes. You can turn it off anytime with one dial code, and switch it back on whenever you head back out to a job site.
