Never Miss a Customer · Chicagoland home service shops

The customer who hit your voicemail is booking your competitor.

Nova catches the calls you miss and the estimates that go quiet, then follows up until the customer picks a time. HVAC, plumbing, and electrical shops across Chicagoland.

You already paid for this work.

Ads, trucks, and a good reputation created the demand. Three gaps decide whether it becomes a job.

The call that hit voicemail

A tech is on a roof, under a sink, or gone for the day. Most callers do not leave a message. They call the next shop on the list.

The callback that waited

Someone wrote the number down. The day filled up. By morning the customer has a date with another company.

The estimate nobody followed up on

The price went out and no one asked what they decided. A quiet estimate is an unfinished conversation, not a no.

See what it's costing you.

Pick your trade for a typical starting point, then replace every number with your own. Change the rates too. They are planning assumptions, not promises.

Assumption rates (edit these)

Still recoverable
$0
a year, at these rates. About $0 a month and 0 jobs.
  • Missed calls$0
  • Quiet estimates$0
  • No-shows kept$0

A planning figure, not a quote. On the call we replace these rates with your real close rate. Starting points are typical examples, not your shop.

No obligation. No pressure.

Capture. Follow up. Book.

Nova does not create new demand. It finishes the demand you already have.

  1. Capture

    Missed calls, after-hours voicemails, and website forms land in one place within a minute.

  2. Follow up

    A short, plain message asks for a decision. It stops when they book, decline, or ask for a person.

  3. Book

    A yes goes onto the calendar you already use. No-shows get a reminder early enough to refill the slot.

What the customer sees (sample thread)
4:41 pm · Your shopStill need someone for the no-cool today or tomorrow? Reply YES and we'll hold a morning slot.
4:52 pm · CallerYes. Tomorrow works.
4:53 pm · Your shopHolding Friday at 8:00. The office will confirm the address by phone.

Plain language. One question. It stops when they decide, and anyone in your office can take over the thread at any line.

Same leak, different trade.

TradeWhere it leaksWhat recovery looks like
HVACNo-cool and no-heat calls bunch up around 5 pm and after the office closes. The first shop to answer usually wins.A same-evening text. A morning slot held only if they say yes. The office confirms the address.
PlumbingEmergency calls arrive while a tech is already under a house. Someone with water on the floor will not wait.Instant capture. If it is active water, a person calls back within the hour. Everything else gets a same-day text.
ElectricalPanel and service upgrades get quoted, then go quiet. The follow-up is the job.A direct question on day two and day five. Then it stops. No long drip.

A fix for one leak, not a bundle.

Missed calls and quiet estimates are the fastest leaks to plug. If your website, your reviews, or how customers find you is the bigger leak, we will say so on the call.

What it is

  • A follow-up system for demand you already created
  • Plain messages that ask for a decision
  • Booked jobs and a weekly scorecard of what was recovered
  • Something your office can take over on any thread

What it is not

  • A chatbot that greets people and then stalls
  • A replacement for your office staff
  • A long drip campaign that pesters customers
  • A seat license you have to figure out on your own

Before the call.

Do we have to spend more on ads?

No. If the phone and your estimates are already producing demand, that is the inventory. New ads only make sense once those leaks are plugged.

Will this talk over my office?

No. It covers the call nobody answered and the follow-up nobody had time for. Anyone in your office can step in on any thread.

What does the customer receive?

A short text from your shop, identified as your shop, with one question and an easy way to stop messages by replying STOP.

How is this different from the text-back in our software?

Many field-service tools can send a first text. Nova's job does not end there. It ends when the customer has a time on your calendar or a clear no, and you see the result on a weekly scorecard.

What happens on the 15-minute call?

We look at your missed-call pattern, how old your open estimates are, and your average ticket. If it looks like a fit, we walk you through the next step, the Nova Checkup, and the cost range right there on the call. If the numbers are too small to matter, we say so.

Who is this for?

Owner-operated HVAC, plumbing, and electrical shops in Chicagoland, from a single truck to a full fleet.

Fifteen minutes. Your numbers.

We look at your missed calls, your open estimates, and your no-shows. You leave knowing what is slipping away and what it takes to fix. No pitch deck. No pressure.

No obligation. No pressure.

Get. Better. Every. Day.
