Questions from construction & trades businesses
- Do I need technical skills to use Lobsterpod?
- No. You describe what the agent should do in plain language. No code, no configuration, no servers to manage.
- How does the agent know about my services?
- During setup, you tell the agent what services you offer, your service area, pricing ranges, and how you want to be contacted. It uses this to qualify and respond to enquiries.
- Can the agent book appointments into my calendar?
- Yes. The agent can integrate with Google Calendar to suggest and book site visits or calls, and notify you on Slack or WhatsApp.
- What happens if the agent makes a mistake?
- The agent notifies you before taking any action that needs your approval. For qualifying and scheduling, you approve in Slack. Nothing happens without your sign-off.
