The problem
You can't answer the phone when you are on a job
When you are up a ladder, under a house, driving the ute between jobs, or running a circular saw, you cannot pick up the phone. But the homeowner who needs an emergency repair or wants a quote for a new deck is not going to wait. They will call the next tradie on hipages.
- 85% of people calling a tradie won't leave a voicemail
- Homeowners call 3-4 tradies and hire whoever answers first
- That adds up to 5-10 lost jobs per month
- The average job is worth A$800+ to your business

How Tradies Use Jodie
Emergency Repair Call
The situation: A homeowner has water pouring through her ceiling from a burst pipe upstairs. She needs a tradie out today before the plasterboard caves in.
Jodie handles it: Jodie picks up immediately, takes the address, assesses the urgency, and gets the details. You get a text flagged as urgent so you can prioritise it between jobs.
Quote Request While On-Site
The situation: A couple wants quotes for a new alfresco area and outdoor deck. They call three tradies from hipages. You are up a ladder at another job and your phone goes to voicemail.
Jodie handles it: Jodie answers, takes the project details: what they want, their address, and timeline. You get the full brief by text and can call them back with a quote that evening.
Driving Between Jobs
The situation: You are in the ute heading to your next job. Your phone rings but you are driving and cannot safely answer it. By the time you arrive and check, the caller has already booked someone else.
Jodie handles it: Jodie picks up the call while you drive. She takes the details, lets the caller know you will be in touch, and texts you the summary. You call them back from your next site.
Evening Call From Landlord
The situation: A property landlord calls at 7pm. His tenant has reported a broken hot water system and he needs a tradie to sort it as soon as possible. Your phone is off for the evening.
Jodie handles it: Jodie answers, takes the property address, the tenant issue, and the landlord's contact details. She flags it as urgent and you get the message first thing in the morning, or straight away if you prefer.
That job enquiry is calling. Who is picking up?
Set up Jodie in under 2 minutes. She handles your calls while you handle the job.
