Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about missed calls and their impact on your business.

Lockouts are one of the most common after-hours emergencies. People get locked out of their homes, cars, and businesses in the evening, at night, and on weekends. These calls are urgent because the person literally cannot get inside. Over 50% of locksmith calls come outside business hours.
After-hours lockout calls typically command premium pricing of $150 to $350, compared to $75 to $150 during business hours. The urgency means higher conversion rates too, with most callers booking service immediately if someone answers.
They call the next locksmith immediately. A person locked out of their car at midnight is not going to leave a voicemail and wait for a callback. They will search for another locksmith and call until someone answers. Every missed call goes directly to a competitor.
An AI phone agent can collect the caller's location, the type of lockout (car, home, business), and contact information. It can dispatch the on-call locksmith with full details, provide an estimated arrival time, and send the caller a confirmation text.
A locksmith missing just 3 after-hours calls per week at an average of $250 each loses $3,000 per month. Since after-hours calls have the highest conversion rate of any locksmith lead source, this is pure lost revenue that goes directly to competitors.
