Sample business and customer

  • 01

    Seconds, not hours.

    A missed call gets a text back before the caller dials the next name.

  • 02

    Qualified by text.

    It asks what you would ask: the job, the address, how urgent.

  • 03

    Booked onto your calendar.

    When the lead picks a time, the visit lands on your calendar with the thread.

How does Textback work?

Three steps. When a call goes unanswered, the caller has already heard your greeting, then gets one text from your Textback number in words you approved. It asks what you would ask, offers times from your calendar and books the visit. The booking lands with the thread, and a reply of stop ends it.

  1. 01

    A call goes unanswered

    Your line forwards through Textback to your phone. If you cannot pick up, the caller has already heard your greeting, so they know one text is coming.

  2. 02

    The text goes out

    One text from your Textback number, in words you approved. The lead replies, and Textback asks the next question.

  3. 03

    The visit gets booked

    The lead picks a time from your calendar. The booking lands with the thread's details, and anything it cannot answer comes to you by email.

What is in the box?

Everything below comes with every Textback number at $197 a month. Your greeting and questions are drafted from your answers and sent only after you approve them, texts go out inside business hours in the lead's own time zone, bookings come from your real calendar, and a reply of STOP ends the thread for good.

  • Your greeting, your questions

    Drafted from your answers. Nothing sends until you approve the words.

  • A text within seconds

    After a missed call, or in reply to anyone who texts your number first.

  • Form leads too

    A lead who ticks the text box on your website form gets the same conversation, with up to three follow-ups if they go quiet.

  • Times from your real calendar

    It offers open slots from your booking calendar and books the one the lead picks.

  • Business hours only

    Texts go out 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. on weekdays in the lead's own time zone. A late call gets its text the next morning.

  • Stop means stop

    A reply of STOP ends the thread. The number is never texted again, by Textback or by any other Davos product.

What does Textback do when I miss a call?

The caller hears your greeting, your phone rings, and if nobody picks up they get one text back within seconds from your Textback number. It asks what they need, where they are and how urgent it is, offers open times from your calendar, and books the visit. The booking lands with the thread's details.

How much does Textback cost?

Textback is $197 a month per business number, billed monthly. Carrier registration for your business is included, and there is no contract: email us to cancel, and texting runs to the end of the month you paid for. You do not need a website from us to use it.

Who does Textback text, and when?

Only people who called or texted your business number, or ticked the text box on your website form. Never a bought list. Texts go out between 9 a.m. and 7 p.m. on weekdays in the lead's own time zone, and a call after hours gets its text the next morning. A reply of STOP ends it for good.

What does Textback not do, and how long is setup?

It does not quote prices or promise a date; those come from you. It never texts anyone who has not called, texted or agreed to hear from you, and it never sends words you have not approved. Setup takes about a week, most of it the carrier registration every texting business needs.

What else should you know?

Short answers on who gets texted, what the first text says, when texts go out and how setup works. Textback texts only people who called, texted or ticked the box, inside business hours, from a number you forward your line to. If your question is not answered here, book a twenty-minute call and a person gets back to you.

Who gets texted?

Only people who called or texted your business number, or ticked the text box on your website form. Never a bought list, and never anyone who said stop.

What does the first text say?

It opens with your business name, says sorry for the missed call and asks what the caller needs. It carries opt-out wording, and you approve the words before anything sends.

Does it quote prices?

No. It qualifies and books. Prices come from you, on the visit or the call.

When do texts go out?

Inside business hours in the lead's own time zone, 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. on weekdays. A call after hours gets its text the next morning.

Do I have to change my number?

No. You keep your number and forward it through Textback. Calls still ring your phone; only the missed ones get a text, from your Textback number.

Why does setup take a week?

US carriers require every business that texts customers to be registered first. We file it for you with the sign-up details, and the carriers usually answer within a week. Nothing sends before they approve.

Is there a contract?

No. Textback runs month to month. Email us to cancel, and texting runs to the end of the month you paid for.

Still losing calls to voicemail?

Tell us how your phone runs today, or book a twenty-minute call. We register your business with the carriers, set up your number, and draft your greeting and questions for you to approve. Setup takes about a week, and nothing sends until you have approved the words.
