AgentBuddy / Canterbury / Waimate / Painters
A painter on a job site can't stop cutting in to take a phone call or write a quote. AgentBuddy answers your calls day or night, sends quotes in minutes, and books your next interior repaint while you're still finishing the prep work.
Whether the job is in Waimate itself or out across Canterbury, the office work still lands on you at the end of the day. AgentBuddy takes it off you. Waimate is a tight market where reputation travels, so the call you miss on Tuesday is the job someone else does on Wednesday.
A homeowner calls about a full exterior repaint. AgentBuddy asks about house size, number of bedrooms, type of surface, and sends a detailed quote for prep, two coats, and clean up - while you're on scaffolding.
A storm is coming and you need to reschedule an exterior job. AgentBuddy automatically texts customers affected, offers new dates, and updates your calendar - no calls needed.
A commercial client hasn't paid for the office repaint. AgentBuddy sends polite payment reminders with invoice details and follows up until it's settled - so you don't have to.
Yes, just tell it your standard rates for each service. It'll ask the right questions for interior (e.g., ceiling, walls, trims) or exterior (e.g., weatherboard, prep needed, number of coats).
AgentBuddy can suggest popular NZ colours or offer to schedule a colour consultation with you. It books a call back or a site visit at your convenience.
It sends appointment reminders to customers and can estimate paint quantities based on house size and number of coats. It'll even order the paint from your supplier if you set it up.
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.
Yes. AgentBuddy works anywhere in New Zealand with a phone signal, Waimate included. It is set up with you over four short calls, all booked late afternoon or after five so we are not pulling you off a job.
NZ$29 a month plus GST for the agent, then 25 cents each time it handles a customer for you. A one-person outfit usually lands between NZ$45 and NZ$130 a month. You can set a monthly cap.
Leave your details and we will ring you to book your first setup call. Two minutes now, and you stop quoting at 9pm.
