For UK tradespeople
Homeowners are told to get three quotes, so the caller you miss is already ringing the next trade on the list, and whoever answers wins the job. Vocalenda answers your number 24/7, books jobs and site visits straight into your calendar, and texts the customer a confirmation, from your own business number.

What it handles
Customers get an answer on the first try, the diary fills itself, and anything it can't handle is waiting on your dashboard, details taken down, before the call ends. Most answering services stop at taking a message. This one books the job.
“Can someone service our boiler this week?”

The maths is short
A new boiler is worth £2,000 or more. A bathroom refit starts around £3,500. Even a standard callout runs about £110, and the homeowner who reaches your voicemail is already ringing the next trade on their list of three quotes. Vocalenda is £49 a month, flat, no per-minute meter. Less than half a callout.
Pricing
No tiers to compare, no per-minute meter running while your caller decides between Tuesday and Thursday. £49 a month on the founding rate, locked for the first ten businesses, and you can leave whenever you like.

An honest note
We won’t invent testimonials. Instead: the first three businesses willing to share their real numbers get 60 days free in total, the usual 30-day trial doubled. And every founding business (the first ten) keeps the £49 rate for as long as they stay subscribed.
