The situation

A strong business with a serious revenue leak

Martin runs a 3-van plumbing and heating business in Dublin South. He has strong Google reviews, consistent referrals, and a fully booked schedule for most of the year. By any measure, a successful operation.

But Martin noticed something troubling in January: his call log showed 34 missed calls over the month. Some were junk. Most weren't. He estimated he followed up on fewer than half — and those that did get a callback often got a voicemail in return, because the customer had already booked someone else.

Eight missed calls a week, at a 30% close rate, with an average job value of €380, represented over €3,600 in lost monthly revenue. That number is what brought Martin to TraidScale.

The solution

What changed — and how fast

TraidScale was live within 4 days of the initial call. Here's what Martin's team saw immediately.

Every missed call now gets a response

The call forwarding was configured to activate after Martin's phone rang twice unanswered. TraidScale answered in his business name, collected the job details, and sent a lead alert to Martin's inbox within 60 seconds of the call ending.

In the first week, 11 previously-missed calls were captured. Six were qualified leads. Martin called back four within the hour and booked three site visits. That week alone covered more than the monthly plan cost.

The timeline

Week by week from sign-up to scale

Week 1

Live and capturing

Script approved, forwarding live. 11 calls captured. 6 qualified leads. 3 site visits booked. First week ROI positive.

Week 2

Script refined

Based on call outcomes, we tightened the urgency detection and added a filter for out-of-area callers. Lead quality improved.

Week 4

Consistent pipeline

Martin's team noticed a consistent flow of qualified leads arriving by 10am each morning — from calls captured the previous evening and weekend.

Week 6

Revenue confirmed

38 leads captured, 24 converted to booked jobs, €3,200 in additional monthly revenue. Martin upgraded to the Growth plan.

"I was losing eight to ten calls a week while I was on jobs. TraidScale picked all of them up. In the first month we had seven new booked jobs from calls I would never have answered. It paid for itself in week one."
