AgentBuddy answers your phone, writes your quotes and chases your invoices, so you can stay on the tools.
●Starting at NZ$29 a month plus usage. No card to start.
Movers lose bookings to whoever answers first, and moving enquiries always come with a fixed date. AgentBuddy answers, takes the addresses, the house size and the date, quotes inside your range and books the truck.
A caller is moving across town. AgentBuddy takes both addresses, the house size, stairs and access, then quotes inside your range and books the date.
A customer has a fixed settlement date. AgentBuddy checks the truck calendar and only offers dates you can actually do.
Someone wants packing as well as the move. AgentBuddy explains what you offer and prices the extras from your list.
For standard household moves, yes, inside the range you set. Pianos, heavy items and difficult access get flagged for you.
No. It books against your real calendar, one truck at a time, so a settlement date it promises is one you can keep.
It prices packing, boxes and materials from the list you give it, so the quote is complete rather than a starting point.
AgentBuddy introduces itself as your assistant and never pretends to be you. Most callers care that someone picked up and booked them in. If a caller asks for you directly it takes a message or puts them through, depending on the rule you set.
It says so rather than guessing, takes the details and passes the question to you. You give it a pricing range it is not allowed to quote outside, so it cannot commit you to a number you would not have given yourself.
No. You keep your number and forward it to AgentBuddy, either all the time or only when you do not pick up. You can turn forwarding off whenever you want, and calls come straight back to your phone.
AgentBuddy starts at NZ$29 a month plus 25 cents for each customer conversation it handles. You pay for conversations that actually happen, so a quiet week costs less than a flat-out one.
Most movers working on their own land between NZ$45 and NZ$130 a month once usage is counted.
Several vans and a steady stream of callers usually sits between NZ$150 and NZ$400 a month.
You choose a monthly ceiling. AgentBuddy stops taking new conversations once it is reached, so the bill cannot run away on you.
No setup fee, and no card needed to start.
Every mover deals with the phone somehow. This is how the usual options stack up.
| Letting it ring out | Free | Most callers do not leave a message. The ones who do have usually rung the next mover on the list first. |
|---|---|---|
| A phone answering service | Per call | Takes a message and passes it on. It cannot quote your work, book into your calendar or chase an unpaid invoice. |
| A part-time receptionist | Wages, plus holidays | Covers office hours. The 9pm call still reaches nobody, and you carry the cost in a quiet month. |
| AgentBuddy | From NZ$29 a month | Answers day or night, books the job, sends the quote and follows up on the money, in your name and your rules. |
We book them late afternoon or after five, because you are on a job all day.
The jobs you take, the ones you turn down, roughly what you charge, and what should happen when someone rings after hours.
It answers as your business, in the name you chose, working to the rules you gave it. Live by the end of this call.
A fortnight later we go through calls it actually handled and tighten anything that reads wrong.
One more round on whatever the first month turned up. After that it just runs.
Leave your details and we will get you set up with founding pricing.
