The Problem

The job is done. The customer is happy. And then you never hear from them again.

Most HVAC companies do excellent work — and then vanish. The customer feels good about the job, means to use you again, and forgets your name by the time their system needs attention next spring. A satisfied customer who doesn't hear from you after a job is 4x more likely to use a competitor next time. Not because they were unhappy — because you weren't top of mind. The post-job window (24–72 hours) is the highest-engagement moment in your customer relationship. It's when reviews are easiest to get, referrals are freshest, and maintenance agreements are most persuasive. Almost no HVAC companies have a system to capture it.

How It Works

STEP BY STEP

01
Job is marked complete in your system

When a job closes, the follow-up sequence is automatically triggered.

We integrate with your dispatch or CRM workflow. When a job status changes to complete, the clock starts. No manual input required from your team.

02
Day 1 — Check-in message

A genuine, personal-feeling check-in arrives the next day.

"Hey [Name] — just checking in. How's everything running since [Tech Name] was there yesterday? Let us know if anything feels off." This opens a conversation and signals that you care about the outcome, not just the payment.

03
Day 2–3 — Review request

Happy customers are guided directly to your Google review page.

The request is timed after the check-in — so it feels like a natural continuation of a conversation, not a cold ask. Direct link, no friction. Converts at 3x the rate of in-person requests.

04
Day 5 — Referral ask + maintenance offer

The sequence ends with your highest-value conversion opportunities.

A referral credit offer and a brief maintenance plan pitch, both timed after the customer relationship has been warmed by the previous touches. This is where the compounding revenue comes from.

What You Get

EVERY BENEFIT, SPELLED OUT

🔁
Turns One-Time Jobs Into Recurring Revenue

The follow-up sequence systematically introduces your maintenance plan to every customer, at the moment they're most receptive. Enrollment rates of 20–30% are common.

Generates Reviews Without Awkward Asks

Your tech finishes the job. The system sends the review request at the perfect moment — after a check-in, when the customer is warm and satisfied. No conversation required.

👥
Built-In Referral System

Every sequence includes a referral ask with a credit incentive. Customers who just had a great experience are the most likely to refer — you just need to ask at the right time.

🛡️
Catches Issues Before They Become Complaints

The check-in message catches problems early. A customer who mentions something isn't right gets a service call. A customer who posts a 1-star review gets a reputation problem.

📅
Maintenance Agreement Upsells

The sequence is designed to introduce your maintenance plan naturally — after the customer has experienced your quality and is in a receptive mindset. No pressure, just a well-timed offer.

🤝
Builds Real Customer Relationships

Customers who receive consistent post-job communication stay loyal significantly longer. They choose you by default next season instead of shopping around.

Questions

ABOUT THIS SYSTEM

How does the system know when a job is complete?

We integrate with your dispatch or job management workflow. When a job is marked complete — whether in Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan, or a simpler system — the sequence triggers automatically.

Can I customize the messages?

Yes. During onboarding, we configure the messages to match your company voice, use your branding, and reflect how you actually communicate with customers. Nothing goes out that you haven't approved.

What if a customer had a bad experience?

The check-in message is designed to surface dissatisfaction early. If a customer indicates a problem, the sequence pauses and your team is notified. The review request never goes to a customer who expressed dissatisfaction.

Does this replace my CRM?

No — we integrate with your existing CRM. We're not replacing your tools, we're adding the automated communication layer on top of them.
