How Speed to Lead Works
Four automated triggers that capture every lead — even when you're busy, closed, or in the field.
Missed Call → Instant Text Back
Customer calls and no one answers? Within 60 seconds, they receive a personalized text: "Hi! Sorry we missed your call. You can book an appointment here or reply to this text." Missed call text back marketing captures leads that would otherwise call a competitor.
Form Fill → Instant Response
The moment someone submits a contact form, they get an immediate text and email confirming receipt and offering a booking link. No more waiting hours for a callback while their intent fades.
AI Chat → After-Hours Lead Capture
When your office is closed, AI-powered chat engages website visitors, answers common questions, and captures contact information. 24/7 lead capture for small business means you never miss an after-hours opportunity.
Automated Follow-Up Sequences
Leads that don't book immediately enter smart nurture sequences — a series of texts and emails over days and weeks that keep your business top of mind until they're ready. How to automate lead follow up without lifting a finger.
