Where does the 38% recovery rate come from?

It is the same industry-benchmark figure published on our missed-call text-back page, not a number invented for this calculator. It is explicitly illustrative: your own recovery rate depends on how you currently follow up on missed calls.

Does this calculator send my numbers anywhere?

No. Everything on this page runs in your browser. Nothing you type into the calculator is stored, submitted, or sent to us unless you separately choose to book a call.

Is this an exact quote?

No, it is an estimate built from two inputs you control and one published benchmark rate. Actual results vary by trade, call volume, and how qualified the callers already are.

What are your missed calls actually costing you?

Every missed call from a real customer is a job that went to whoever picked up next. Enter your own numbers below for a rough monthly estimate, no email required to see it.

Missed-call text-back runs a flat $99/mo. At these numbers that leaves roughly $4,837 a month in recovered revenue after the cost of the automation itself.

Illustrative, based on the same industry-benchmark recovery rate (~38%) published on our missed-call text-back page, not a guarantee. It assumes every missed call is a real, unbooked lead, which will not be true for every business. Your actual recovery rate will vary with how you currently follow up.

How this is calculated

Missed calls per week × 4.33 gives a monthly missed-call count. That figure × ~38% (the industry-benchmark text-back recovery rate we publish on our missed-call text-back page, not a number specific to this calculator) gives an estimated count of recovered jobs. That × your average job value gives an estimated recovered-revenue figure, which is then compared against the $99/mo flat cost of the automation itself.

It is a simple, transparent model on purpose: three real numbers, one published rate, no hidden multiplier.
