Step-by-step setup guide + copy-paste prompt

Benefit: AI answers phone/text/email, books jobs and writes notes inside Workiz — no third-party answering service that only emails you a message.

Prerequisites

  • Workiz account with Genius Answering enabled (paid add-on).
  • Services, service area, and booking windows set up in Workiz.

Step-by-step setup

Step 1. Customize Genius Answering. In Workiz, open Genius Answering settings (Help Center: "Customizing your Genius Answering settings"). Set greeting, services offered, service area, and when to hand off to a human.

Step 2. Turn it on for phone (and text/email if offered on your plan). Confirm Genius can schedule, add notes, and cancel jobs in the same system your dispatchers use.

Step 3. Automate follow-ups after AI calls. With the Automations add-on, send a text or email after Genius Answering calls (Workiz has a dedicated help article for this) so warm leads get a second touch.

Step 4. Skip external answering services. Route your main business line so Genius picks up when the office is busy or closed — Gold Eagle's point was that third-party services only emailed messages and lost emergency AC callers.

Step 5. Review weekly. Check reply-to-lead time and how often callers ask for a human (their case: 87% never did). Tighten FAQs when Genius misses a question.
