How Tree Service Companies Use Jodie
Storm Damage Emergency
The situation: A homeowner calls after an ice storm. A downed limb is blocking their driveway and they cannot get their car out. They need someone today.
Jodie handles it: Jodie picks up, takes the address, asks about the size of the limb, whether there is damage to the house or power lines, and how urgent the access issue is. You get a text with all the details so you can prioritize and respond fast.
Working at Height
The situation: You're in a harness 40 feet up removing a dead limb when your phone buzzes with a new inquiry.
Jodie handles it: Jodie answers, takes the caller's name, tree details, and what they need done. She lets them know you will call back once you are safely on the ground. The lead is in your inbox when you climb down.
Tree Removal Quote
The situation: A homeowner calls about a large oak in their backyard that is close to the power lines. They need it removed and think they might need a city permit.
Jodie handles it: Jodie asks about the tree species, approximate height, proximity to structures and power lines, and whether they are aware of any tree ordinances or HOA requirements. You get the full picture and can quote without a follow-up call.
After-Hours Dangerous Tree
The situation: A homeowner calls at 8pm worried about a hanging limb over their yard after high winds. It is near the property line and they are concerned about their neighbor.
