The problem
The first heatwave hits and your phone rings off the hook. Who is answering it?
Summer is where you make your money, but it's also when every technician on your team is out on a breakdown. When you're troubleshooting a ducted system or fitting a new split unit, nobody is back at the office to pick up the phone. The homeowner whose AC died at 2pm on a 40-degree day is not going to try you twice.
- 85% of callers with an AC emergency won't wait to leave a voicemail
- During a heatwave you could be losing 3-5 AC jobs per day, not per week
- Summer call volumes spike but a full-time receptionist costs A$1,500+/month year-round
- Every call a competitor answers is revenue you will never see

How AC & HVAC Companies Use Jodie
AC Breakdown in Summer
The situation: It's 3pm on a 42-degree day and a homeowner's split system has stopped cooling. They have young kids at home and they call your number.
Jodie handles it: Jodie gets the address, asks what brand and type of system they have, checks whether the outdoor unit is running, and finds out if anyone vulnerable is in the home. You get a text straight away so you can prioritise the job.
Mid-Job Split System Install
The situation: You're halfway through fitting a new split system when your phone rings with a customer wanting a quote for ducted AC in their new build.
Jodie handles it: Jodie takes the call, asks about the property size, number of zones, and their timeline. You get the details by text so you can follow up once you're off the tools.
Ducted AC Service Quote
The situation: A homeowner calls wanting a quote for a full ducted air conditioning service. Their system is blowing warm air and they want someone out before summer.
Jodie handles it: Jodie asks about the ducted system brand, how old it is, when it was last serviced, and what symptoms they are noticing. You get the details by text so you can book the job or call them back with a price.
After-Hours Commercial AC
The situation: A restaurant manager calls at 8pm because their commercial AC unit has failed and the kitchen is too hot to operate in. They need someone first thing.
Jodie handles it: Jodie answers, gets the business address, system type, and the urgency. The message is waiting for your team so you can dispatch a technician first thing or send someone out that night if it's critical.
