You are on a roof. The phone rings. You miss it.
Enquiries come in while you work
You are on a job site. A customer fills out your website form at 10:00. You do not see it until 18:00. By then they have already called your competitor.
Follow-up takes forever
Every enquiry needs a reply, qualification questions, a quote, and a booking. That is 15–20 minutes per lead. Multiply by 10 enquiries a week and your evenings are gone.
You forget to follow up
The customer who said "let me think about it" three weeks ago? You meant to call back. You did not. They went somewhere else.
Hiring a receptionist costs more than you can afford
A part-time receptionist or VA costs $1,500–$3,000/month. You need someone who answers every enquiry immediately — but you cannot justify the cost yet.
This is exactly what an OpenClaw Sales agent automates — and Lobsterpod makes it effortless to run.
Your OpenClaw Sales agent handles every enquiry from first contact to booking.
Picks up every enquiry instantly
The moment a customer fills out your website form, sends an email, or messages on social media, the Sales agent picks it up. No delay. No missed leads.
Qualifies the lead
The agent checks if the enquiry matches your service area, job type, and availability. It filters out time-wasters before they reach you.
Asks the right questions
The agent replies to the customer with follow-up questions — property type, budget, timeline, access details. Whatever you need to prepare a quote.
Books the next step with your team
Once qualified, the agent schedules a site visit, a phone call, or sends a quote — depending on your workflow. It notifies your team on Slack or Telegram with a full brief.
Follows up on cold leads
Leads that went quiet get a polite follow-up after 3, 7, and 14 days. No lead falls through the cracks.
