The AC died at 2pm. They WhatsApped. You were on a roof. You replied at 7. They already booked the crew that asked address and slot at 2:04.
Night is the same leak. 10pm. You see it at 8am. Gone.
You did not lose the job to a bigger brand. You lost it because the chat sat while you worked.
What crews actually run
Personal phone. JustDial, the site, Instagram, the missed call. Four inboxes. No memory. Quote sent, never followed.
What to do instead
Answer on the channel they used. Same person. One memory.
Qualify: address, job type, when. Offer two slots. Book tomorrow's first if it is night. Do not invent a quote.
You finish the current job. The next one is already on the calendar.
Who this is for
Home-service crews that already get inbound and still answer when they park. Parking is too late.
How PROXe does this for home services. Same leak for wellness and clinics.

Questions people ask
Does it replace the technician?
No. It does the reply while you are on the job. You do the work.
Will it quote a price?
No. It books the visit and hands you the thread.
Do I need someone in the office at night?
No. The desk keeps working. You do not.
How long to go live?
48 hours.
You do the work. The inbox does not sit. Talk to PROXe on the site (goproxe.com).

You set a phone reminder to reply at 6. The lead needed a slot at 2. A reminder is a promise to yourself. The desk is a next line in their thread now.
