ST-01 · THE TERMS

Installation

We install it. It costs nothing.

Emergency first, everything else second. Installation is free. You get 15 hours of dedicated installation support with it, to be used within 8 days of purchase. It is an allowance of hours, not 8 days of open-ended help, so book the time in and spend it. When the 15 hours are spent, or the 8 days are up, anything further is quoted before it is started and billed as work. Nothing lands on an invoice unannounced.

Installing the snapshot into the sub-account, with the QA pass and the walkthrough
Rebranding the website: your client’s name, colours, logo, domain and booking links
A2P 10DLC registration and setup, opt-in wording checked before it is filed
Email service setup: domain email integrated in HighLevel and the sending domain authenticated
Creating a few more automations where the build needs them, and retuning the ones in it

Never in the hours, on any build: third-party integrations, third-party api work, custom software development. Those are commissioned separately and quoted before a spark is struck.

ST-02 · THE NINE

What lands in the sub-account

Nine pieces, forged for plumbing business.

One list, not two. Every build carries the same nine pieces, and every part we deliver is stamped into the piece it belongs to and described once. Open a part to see what it fixes for a plumbing business, what changes, and how it pays back. There are no quantities on it: what is in the build is stated, not counted.

  1. CATCHThe lead arrives and is answered
  2. HEATCold and quiet contacts brought back up
  3. STRIKEThe booking held and protected
  4. QUENCHThe finished job set as public proof
  5. TEMPERThe client kept, for years not weeks

Professional Website

Emergency landing pages per town with a call bar that never scrolls away, plus service pages for repipes and water heaters with the calendar on each.

  • Emergency pages per town
  • Persistent call bar
  • Service calendar embedded

STAMPED FROM

AI Studio websiteSewer, heaters, repipes, town by town
The gap
Nobody searches for plumbing services. They search for a blocked sewer line in their own suburb, and your client's single services page never ranks for it.
After the strike
The shop front arrives written: sewer lines, blocked drains, cylinders, repipes, gas safety and leak detection, each crossed with the towns served, a call bar pinned, calendar underneath.
What it pays back
Say you would quote a client $6,000 and ten weeks for a site like that. Here it ships with the install, so the hand-off happens in week one instead of week ten.
FunnelsBurst pipe page, live in minutes
The gap
Emergency search traffic is the most expensive click your client buys, and it lands on a page about the family history instead of a button that books.
After the strike
One page per offer, stamped and ready: emergency call-out, service booking, water heater replacement, whole house repipe, maintenance plan signup and the referral page.
What it pays back
If emergency clicks run $26 and the call-out page converts twice as well as the home page, your client's cost per booked job halves on the same daily budget.
Forms and surveysOne question sorts the flood
The gap
Intake that treats a flooded kitchen and a dripping washer as the same submission puts both in the same inbox, waiting for whoever opens email next.
After the strike
The first question is whether water is running now, and everything after it hangs off that answer — access, property type, photographs, preferred window, opt-in wording.
What it pays back
At say $26 an emergency click, a form that flags urgency itself means your client's most expensive leads never sit behind three enquiries about a leaking washer.
02CATCH

AI Receptionist

Takes the midnight burst-pipe call, asks whether the stopcock is off, gives the one instruction that saves a floor, then wakes the on-call tech.

  • Stopcock instruction first
  • Wakes the on-call tech
  • English and Spanish

STAMPED FROM

1 AI ReceptionistCeiling coming down at 1am
The gap
Water is running through a light fitting. Your client is asleep. The homeowner is already dialling the second number on the search results page.
After the strike
The voice picks up on the first ring, tells them where the stop tap usually sits, takes the address and the damage, and wakes the duty engineer.
What it pays back
If night call-outs bill at $420 and your client currently loses two a week to a full voicemail box, the recovered ones fund the retainer before anything else does.
03CATCH

AI Chatbot

Soaks up the “can you fit a new tap on Thursday” traffic on the site and Facebook so the phone line stays clear for the water that is actually coming in.

  • Keeps the phone line clear
  • Books routine work
  • Web, SMS, FB, Instagram

STAMPED FROM

1 AI ChatbotTaps and toilets, handled in chat
The gap
Every quote request for a new mixer tap eats the same line an emergency needs. Your client's office spends its morning pricing washers.
After the strike
Chat takes the small stuff across web, SMS, email, Facebook and Instagram. It books drain clears and fixture swaps straight to the diary and keeps the phone free.
What it pays back
Say chat absorbs fifteen routine enquiries a week. At a $90 drain clear that is real booked work, and the emergency line is clear for the $420 job behind it.
04HEAT

AI Outbound Caller

Rings the quotes nobody approved and the customers carrying deferred work a tech wrote down and never mentioned again.

  • Unapproved quote chase
  • Deferred work at 90 days
  • Voicemail with a booking link

Runs on Workflows and Nurture campaign, described once where they are stamped rather than twice here.

05STRIKE

Smart Appointment System

Gives the window, texts from the van when the engineer sets off, and rings within the hour if nobody comes to the door.

  • 24h, 1h and 15min ladder
  • On-the-way from the road
  • Recovery call inside 60 min

STAMPED FROM

Appointment reminders, confirmations and no-show recoveryArrival windows people actually believe
The gap
The homeowner waited in all morning for a survey. Nobody came before two. That is the review your client gets, and it is about timekeeping.
After the strike
Booked, confirmed, reminded a day out and again on the morning, then texted from the road when the engineer sets off. Missed slots are worked against a 70% rebook target.
What it pays back
At a two person crew costing say $140 an hour, one wasted survey morning a week is more than a technician's wage. The reminder ladder is not admin, it is margin.
06QUENCH

Review Automation

The engine asks per job rather than per contact, so a landlord with six properties leaves six honest reviews and is never messaged twice about one.

  • Asked per job, not contact
  • Two follow-ups, then stop
  • Callback jobs suppressed

STAMPED FROM

Review automationSkipped when the crew went back
The gap
A plumbing review left after a callback job is a one star review. Asking blind means your client's worst days get the loudest microphone.
After the strike
The ask waits for sign-off and skips any job that needed a return visit. Each property counts as its own, so a landlord is asked per address, not per name.
What it pays back
If your client completes eighty jobs a month and only the clean ones are asked, the profile grows on the work they are proud of. That is triage, not volume.
07QUENCH

Review Harvesting

Waits until the stopcock is back on and the job is signed off. If the crew had to return a second time, nothing goes out at all.

  • Trigger: job signed off
  • Suppressed after a callback
  • Google and Facebook links

Runs on Review automation, described once where they are stamped rather than twice here.

08TEMPER

Lifetime Nurture Campaigns

Drains and the cylinder on a yearly clock, lagging flagged before the first hard frost, and a cover plan that is actually worth the money.

  • Annual check prompts
  • Pre-freeze reminders
  • Maintenance plan offers

STAMPED FROM

Nurture campaignThe repipe quote that went quiet
The gap
A whole house repipe is a kitchen-renovation-sized decision. The homeowner takes the quote, says nothing for six weeks, then rings whoever was last in front of them.
After the strike
The sequence stays in front of them: disruption explained, timeline explained, finance options, photographs of a finished job on a similar house, and the guarantee in writing.
What it pays back
At a repipe value of say $5,200, one recovered quote a quarter covers your client's whole subscription and leaves your agency fee looking like the best line they buy.
Seasonal automationBefore the first hard frost
The gap
The freeze week is the one your client cannot staff. Everything breaks at once and the only work available is emergency work at antisocial hours.
After the strike
Winter prep is already on the clock: lagging and outside tap reminders before the frost, drain checks ahead of the holidays, hose bibs and irrigation in spring.
What it pays back
Say a winter check sells at $95 and your client's list holds nine hundred past customers. Booking even a slim slice of that turns November into a month worth trading in.
09TEMPER

Database Reactivation

Wakes the addresses not seen in six months against the work they deferred, which is the largest untouched number most plumbing firms own.

  • 6 month dormant trigger
  • Deferred work win-back
  • AI calling campaign

Runs on Nurture campaign and Custom fields, described once where they are stamped rather than twice here.

THE FRAME

Four parts belong to no single piece. They carry all nine, which is why they are listed once, here, rather than nine times above.

Pipelines

Emergency board beside quoted work

The gap
One list holding a live flood and a bathroom refit quote means the flood gets read third. Dispatch cannot work from a list sorted by arrival time.
After the strike
Boards land in the sub-account already split: emergencies moving new call to dispatched to complete, quoted work carrying repipes and heaters, and maintenance plan members tracked apart.
What it pays back
If your client is sitting on forty open quotes worth an average $2,100, a board that surfaces the oldest six each Monday turns a dead list into a call sheet.

Workflows

Ninety day deferred work recall

The gap
A technician notes a corroded stack on the job sheet and moves on. Ninety days later nobody remembers, and the stack fails on a Sunday.
After the strike
Urgent jobs bypass every sequence and hit the duty phone. Deferred items resurface at ninety days naming the actual part. Plan renewals and quote chases run on their own clocks.
What it pays back
Assume one job in three carries a deferred item and the average item is $850. A recall list that fires on its own is the cheapest revenue in the sub-account.

Custom values

Rates, licence, coverage, one screen

The gap
The second plumbing client wants their own after-hours rate, their own coverage radius and their own plan pricing. None of that should mean rebuilding the line.
After the strike
Placeholders sit at account level: trading name, coverage radius, call-out fee, out-of-hours rate, licence and insurance numbers, plan tiers, guarantee wording, dispatch number, booking links.
What it pays back
If you install for four plumbing clients a year and each would otherwise cost two days of find-and-replace, that is more than a working week of your team's time back.

Custom fields

Heater age, pipe material, access

The gap
The house has galvanised pipe and a cylinder from 2009. Nobody wrote it down, so it gets the same generic newsletter as a new build.
After the strike
Fields carry heater age and type, pipe material, stop tap location, parking and access notes, tenant or owner, deferred item and plan status. Every send reads them first.
What it pays back
Assume ninety addresses carry a heater past its tenth year. At a $2,000 replacement, that segment is worth more to your client than the rest of the database combined.

Nine pieces in every build, never eight and never ten. The 70% no-show recovery and the 5 to 10 reviews a month are what these pieces are tuned to produce. They are targets we build to, not measured results from a named client.

ST-04 · THE LINE

How the complete system works

Lead capture to lifetime client.

The nine above are what lands in the account. This is the run: five stages, three moving parts each, in the order they fire for a plumbing business build.

  1. 1CHARGE

    Everything that comes through the door

    Four ways in, one routed path, nothing left ringing.

    Water does not wait for office hours, so the line that answers it does not either, and everything non-urgent is pushed to chat to keep it clear.

    The line that never rings out

    • Picked up on the first ring, at any hour
    • Works out what the caller wants by asking, not by menu
    • Puts them in a slot before the call ends
    • Switches between English and Spanish mid-conversation
    • Passes a live one to your team while they are still on
    • 24/7 pickup
    • Books in-call
    • EN/ES

    Typed enquiries, wherever they are typed

    • SMS, email, Messenger and Instagram answered in seconds
    • The site widget runs the same qualifying questions
    • Writes job type and preference straight to the record
    • Hands over to a person the moment it should
    • Drops the contact into follow-up as the chat closes
    • Five inboxes
    • One script
    • Human handoff

    Form fills and paid traffic

    • Every submission starts the ten-day run
    • Email, SMS and AI calling work the lead together
    • Routed by job type to the right path
    • Source stamped on the record for attribution
    • Carried into the call-out without a manual step
    • Attribution
    • Three channels
    • Auto-route
  2. 2SOAK

    Bringing a cold lead up to temperature

    Ten days of heat on a customer who would otherwise cool to nothing.

    Ten days of nurture belongs to the quoted work, the repipe and the water heater, not to the emergencies, which convert on the call.

    Days one to three, in writing

    • Opens with the offer, not a greeting
    • What the work involves, written for the trade
    • Proof from people in the same position
    • One thing to do: pick a time

    Days four to seven, by text

    • A dated offer with a reason to move now
    • One short line of proof, not a paragraph
    • A booking link that takes a single tap
    • Pressure without the shouting

    Days eight to ten, on the phone

    • A call that reopens the conversation
    • Meets the objection that stalled them
    • Takes the call-out while they are still talking
    • Leaves something worth returning if not
  3. 3STRIKE

    Holding the booking once it is made

    A slot that stays filled, and a way back when it does not.

    A locked door wastes a van hour that cannot be resold. The window is confirmed, reminded three times, and the on-the-way text goes out from the road.

    Confirmed the moment it is set

    • Text with the details, sent immediately
    • Calendar file for Google and Outlook
    • Email copy written to the contact record
    • Pre-visit access notes sent ahead of the visit

    Three reminders, falling closer

    • A day out, by text and by email
    • An hour out, the on-the-way note
    • Fifteen minutes out, the last word
    • Moving the slot takes one tap, not a call

    When the slot is missed

    • Called back inside the hour, not the next morning
    • Finds out what happened in conversation
    • Puts them back in the diary on the same call
    • Inside 60 min
    • 70% recovery target
  4. 4QUENCH

    Setting the finished job as public proof

    Every completed job cooled into something a stranger can read.

    The ask waits until the work is signed off and the water is running, and it stays silent on any job that needed a second visit.

    Asking at the right moment

    • A satisfaction check two hours after the job
    • Happy: the Google and Facebook links follow
    • Unhappy: raised internally, never pushed public
    • Typically five to ten reviews a month, unattended

    Answering what comes back

    • Every positive review gets a reply
    • Written to the review, not from one template
    • Negative ones answered with care, not defence
    • Anything serious lands with a person

    Putting the proof back to work

    • Review text published back onto the site
    • Trust signals where the decision gets made
    • Lifts conversion on pages that already rank
    • Feeds what Google reads for local position
  5. 5TEMPER

    Keeping the client for years, not one job

    The customer stays on the books long after the invoice clears.

    The deferred work list is the asset. Annual checks, pre-freeze reminders and maintenance plans keep the address on the books for years.

    Staying in view

    • Prompts timed to the trade calendar
    • A check-in every quarter
    • Something on the birthday and the anniversary
    • A yearly prompt to review the arrangement

    Answering without you

    • Common questions handled at any hour
    • Moves an appointment without a phone call
    • Reports where things stand on request
    • Finds and sends a document when asked

    Going back to the quiet list

    • Six months of silence opens the trigger
    • A return offer with something real in it
    • A referral ask once a month
    • A VIP tier for the customers who keep returning

ST-05 · THE CASE

Why it is worth forging

What it costs you today.

Cold metal

  1. 01Midnight calls go to an answering serviceA service that takes a message is not the same as a service that books work. By the time the message is read the homeowner has already called somebody who picked up.
  2. 02The emergency line is clogged with routineSomebody wanting a tap fitted on Thursday is holding the line that the burst pipe needs, and the burst pipe rings out.
  3. 03Quotes for real money go coldA repipe or a water heater is quoted once, chased once, and then quietly forgotten by everyone except the customer, who buys from the next firm.
  4. 04Deferred work lives in a notebookThe tech writes down what the customer put off, the notebook goes in the van, and nobody ever calls about it again.

After the forge

  1. Triage before dispatchThe caller is told to shut the stopcock, the job is graded, and the on-call tech is woken only for the ones that need it.02 AI Receptionist
  2. The routine work moves off the phoneChat takes the Thursday tap job so the line stays open for the water that is coming through a ceiling.03 AI Chatbot
  3. Fewer wasted van hoursArrival window confirmed, on-the-way text sent from the road, and a call inside the hour when nobody is home.05 Smart Appointment System
  4. Deferred work gets a callNinety days after a customer says not yet, the system rings them with the item named rather than a generic offer.04 AI Outbound Caller
  5. Reviews from finished jobs onlyThe ask fires on sign-off and stays silent on any job that needed a return visit.07 Review Harvesting

Forged for

  • Three or more vans running genuine emergency work alongside booked jobs
  • Firms paying an answering service that takes messages rather than bookings
  • Anyone with a deferred work list nobody has ever called
  • Shops that quote repipes and water heaters and follow up once

Not forged for

  • New-build and contract plumbing, where the work arrives by schedule rather than by phone
  • A two-person firm already answering every call between jobs
  • Anyone expecting the AI to diagnose or price a job on the call, which it deliberately will not do

If that second list is you, say so on the build call. We would rather tell you a plumbing business build is the wrong shape for you than take the money and watch it sit in a sub-account.

ST-06 · THE RESULT

What changes for the client

Day one, this happens.

  • Emergency calls are triaged and on a tech calendar before the caller hangs up
  • The deferred work list is called on a schedule rather than left in a notebook
  • On-the-way messages go out from the road without a dispatcher typing them

ST-07 · THE SCOPE

Delivery and support

What the forge takes on.

Clear lines rather than small print. The build and everything it automates stay on our floor. Work that reaches outside HighLevel is commissioned separately and quoted first.

On the floor

  • Installing the snapshot into the sub-account, with the QA pass and the walkthrough
  • Rebranding the website: your client’s name, colours, logo, domain and booking links
  • A2P 10DLC registration and setup, opt-in wording checked before it is filed
  • Email service setup: domain email integrated in HighLevel and the sending domain authenticated
  • Creating a few more automations where the build needs them, and retuning the ones in it

Commissioned separately

Third-party integrations
Anything that has to talk to a system outside HighLevel: an EHR, a shop management system, a wash controller, a comparative rater.
Third-party API work
Keys, endpoints, retries and error handling. Two-way syncs, webhook relays and scheduled migrations.
Custom software development
Portals, calculators and internal tools. Real software, scoped and priced as software.

Anything in the second list is quoted before a spark is struck, or handed to a dedicated VA on a monthly retainer if you would rather have hands than a project. It is never billed to you as a surprise.

Delivery24 business hours
InstallationFree
Install support15 hours, within 8 days

Out of the fire and into the sub-account inside 24 business hours of purchase confirmation. The floor runs 9am to 5pm Central, Monday to Friday, and nothing ships at a weekend, so a Friday afternoon order is struck on Monday. Installation is free. You get 15 hours of dedicated installation support with it, to be used within 8 days of purchase. When the 15 hours are spent, or the 8 days are up, anything further is quoted before it is started and billed as work. Nothing lands on an invoice unannounced.
