What Slow Follow-Up Is Costing Your Business

Plug in your real numbers. See exactly how much revenue you're losing every month — and what catching every lead would put back in your pocket.

Why this matters

Speed Kills Leads. Slow Kills Businesses.

The data on lead response time is brutal. And it explains why the leads you're already paying for keep slipping away.

The difference

What "Following Up" Actually Looks Like

Most service businesses have no real system. A person tries their best. Then leads die.

Human follow-up (what you have now)

  • 30 min to 2 hours before first callback. Sometimes never.
  • Generic SMS template: "Hey, got your inquiry. Call us back."
  • 1–3 attempts. If they don't answer, the lead's dead.
  • Nothing nights, weekends, holidays.
  • No memory. Lead forgets who you are by tomorrow.

Stakd Systems (what you get)

  • Under 60 seconds from lead submit to first contact. Every time.
  • Custom AI trained on YOUR business — your services, pricing, hours, tone.
  • Multi-channel: call, text, email. Keeps working until booked or opted out.
  • 24/7. Always. 2 AM Sunday on a holiday weekend = same response.
  • Books the appointment in their calendar 30 seconds after they reach out.

Extra Jobs/Month

Right now you're closing 27% of your leads because slow follow-up means prospects book with whoever responded first. With Stakd answering and booking every lead in 60 seconds, you close +6.9 more jobs/month from the same ad spend. That's $24,840 in extra gross profit every month — $298,080/year — without spending another dollar on marketing.

Pricing

Every quote is custom. Here's why.

A solo plumber with 50 calls/month needs a different setup than a 12-truck HVAC with 500. We don't pretend otherwise.

Call volume

More calls = bigger build.

Channels

Voice, chat, SMS, Instagram — pick what fits.

Integrations

Your CRM, calendar, dispatch — we wire it in.

Build complexity

Industry-specific scripts, multi-location, etc.
