A first text that works for electricians

Hi, this is Your Business. Sorry we missed your call - we're probably on a job. What's going on? Reply here and we'll get back to you shortly. If you smell burning or see sparks, call 911 first. Reply STOP to opt out.

One text, your business name, a STOP option, no offers. You edit and approve your own wording during setup.

After hours

Late-night electrical calls are often outages. Pick "text right away" if you take emergency calls, otherwise 8 AM.

Reviews for electricians

Ask once the work passes inspection or the power is back on. Ask every customer, not just the happy ones (filtering is called "review gating" and Google prohibits it), and never offer a discount or gift for a review.
