Prerequisites

  • Workiz with Genius Answering.
  • Optional: Workiz Online Booking on website/social/Google.

Step-by-step setup

Step 1. Enable Genius for overflow + after-hours. Customize greeting, FAQs, service area, and handoff rules in Genius Answering settings.

Step 2. Listen to early calls. Ops should listen to the first week of transcripts/summaries to build trust before expanding coverage.

Step 3. Expand to lunch and meetings. Once trusted, cover lunch breaks and dispatcher meetings — Einstein Pros was missing ~16% of calls with two dispatchers, and ~40% of those were new-job opportunities.

Step 4. Pair Online Booking. Put Workiz Online Booking on your website, social, and Google Business Profile so web leads self-schedule without a phone call.

Step 5. Confirm AI-booked jobs. Call customers to confirm jobs Genius already booked until your team trusts the calendar.
