Who it is for / Handymen

A business phone number for handymen

Neuron answers every call that you can't and turns leads to sales.

Neuron gives your handyman business its own local number, and an agent that picks up on it. Most of your calls are somebody describing a small job and asking whether you do it and roughly what it costs, and your agent can have that conversation while you are up a ladder with your hands full.

When a new customer texts

Your text agent

Do you mount TVs? 65 inch on drywall, and I would like the cables hidden.
We do. Mounting a 65 inch TV on drywall is $150, and hiding the cables in the wall adds $90. You supply the mount.
Works for me. I am in Pleasant Hill, free Thursday or Friday.
I'll pass that to Dan now, and he'll text you to pick a time.

Sent by your agent

It answers with your prices for the jobs you see every week, and passes the customer to you when they want a day.

When the phone rings and your hands are full

Your voice agent

Answered in your business name

Your agent

Thanks for calling Dan Fixes It. How can I help?

Caller

Hi, I have a fence gate that sags and will not latch, and a couple of doors that stick.

Your agent

We can help with both. Is the gate wood or metal, and how many doors are sticking?

Caller

Wood gate, and three doors.

It gets the list of jobs, the address and when they are free, and texts you the whole thing the moment the call ends.

What it takes off your plate

Whether you do it, and roughly what it costs

Tell your agent the jobs you take, your hourly rate and your minimum, and it answers the question most callers open with.

The details you need before a quote

It asks what the job is, what it is made of and where it is, so your first reply to the customer is a number and a day.

Every address and photo in one place

The picture of the broken hinge and the address it belongs to are in the same thread, and search finds either one.

What comes with the number

  • Your own local number, free, and it is yours rather than shared
  • An agent that answers texts in your tone and takes calls while you are working
  • Caller ID for texts and calls, so an unknown number arrives with a name
  • Voicemail written out in the thread, under your own greeting in your own voice
  • Every language, both ways: a customer texts in Spanish, you read it in English, and your reply arrives in Spanish
  • Search across everything anyone has ever sent you

Every plan comes with a number and an agent, and the free plan has no card to enter. The plans are side by side on the pricing page.

Frequently asked questions

Can the agent quote my hourly rate and minimum?

Yes. It quotes what you quote, from your website or from what you tell it, and hands you anything it should not answer on its own.

Can customers text photos of the job?

Yes. Your business number receives ordinary text and picture messages, and they land in the same thread as the conversation.

Do I have to give up my personal number?

No. Neuron gives you a second number that lives in its own app, so your personal number stays personal. Your customers reach the business line and your family reaches you.

Does my customer need to download anything?

No. Your business number sends and receives ordinary text messages and ordinary phone calls, so anyone with a phone can reach you.
