Benefit: AI answers every call and books into the calendar. Automations handle estimate follow-ups, reminders, invoice chasing and review requests.
Step-by-step setup
Step 1. Set up Genius Answering. Follow Workiz's "Customizing your Genius Answering settings" article to set the greeting, services, service area and when to hand off to a human.
Step 2. Follow up after AI calls. Use Automations to send a text or email after Genius Answering calls (Workiz has a help article for this).
Step 3. Ask for reviews automatically. Turn on the Automations add-on, then go to Automations → Marketing → "Collect reviews / 1 day after". Choose SMS or email, set the timing, and paste your Google review link into the message. It applies to future completed jobs.
Step 4. Add the money automations. Set up estimate follow-up, a reminder before each job, invoice chasing and receipts. ADM built about 50, but start with these 5.
Step 5. Watch handoffs. Only about 1.7% of ADM's callers insisted on a human. Check your own call logs weekly.
