A call in your business Illustrative conversation · responses depend on your setup **Caller** “Do you install luxury vinyl plank over existing tile?” **Rinzo AI Receptionist** “I can explain the installation services we offer and connect you with an estimator who can look at your floor.” Next step **Estimator** Why the first answer matters ## Installers cannot answer with adhesive on their hands. A homeowner comparing materials and a contractor checking your capacity both need a useful first conversation. Give them your service details and a clear route while the installation crew finishes the room in front of them. Use your own business facts, instructions, and documents to shape the conversation. When a caller asks for a person, Rinzo puts them through to a destination you configure. If that person can’t take the call, it takes a message for them. [How the AI Receptionist works →](https://rinzo.ai/ai-receptionist.md) The calls you know well ## What callers can get help with. ### Materials and services Explain the flooring types you supply or install and whether you take on removal, subfloor preparation, or stairs. Callers can tell whether you handle their project. ### Measuring appointments Describe how an in-home measure works and what happens afterward. Transfer requests for a measure to the person who arranges them. ### Showroom visits Share your showroom address, hours, and parking so callers can see samples in person. Staff answer questions about current stock and lead times. Your information. Your way of working. ## Give it the details your callers need. Describe each material you work with and the preparation work you include or charge separately. Set separate destinations for the showroom and the installation office if they are handled by different people. Test a question about a material you do not carry. Start from the general-trades template: rinzo receptionists template general-trades drafts the greeting, instructions, common questions and destinations for a trade business, with blanks for your own prices, hours and policies that you fill in and check before publishing. Upload PDF, Word, text, or Markdown documents, review their extracted text, and publish your updates when ready. ### Start with these details - Flooring types supplied and installed - Measuring and estimate process - Showroom hours and location - Removal and preparation policies Keep a route to a person or voicemail for questions that need more help. Beyond the first conversation ## The rest of your phone system is here, too. ### A showroom and an office on one system Give showroom and office staff their own extensions on one plan.

[See current availability](https://rinzo.ai/availability.md) and [how information is handled](https://rinzo.ai/privacy.md). ### Can it check whether a flooring product is in stock? It does not read your inventory. Route stock and lead-time questions to the showroom or the person who orders materials. ### Can it tell a caller which floor suits their basement? It can share general information you supply about each material. Recommendations for a particular space should come from your team after they see it. ### Can it book a measuring visit? With a Google Calendar connected, it offers free times and books the visit once the calendar has confirmed it. Otherwise it explains how measures are arranged and transfers the caller, and your team confirms the date and time. ## Explore related industries [Painters →](https://rinzo.ai/industries/painters.md) [General contractors →](https://rinzo.ai/industries/general-contractors.md) [Home inspectors →](https://rinzo.ai/industries/home-inspectors.md) [All industries →](https://rinzo.ai/industries.md) ### More in Trades & repairs [Plumbers](https://rinzo.ai/industries/plumbers.md) [HVAC companies](https://rinzo.ai/industries/hvac.md) [Electricians](https://rinzo.ai/industries/electricians.md) [Roofing companies](https://rinzo.ai/industries/roofers.md) [Garage door services](https://rinzo.ai/industries/garage-door-services.md) [Locksmiths](https://rinzo.ai/industries/locksmiths.md) [Appliance repair](https://rinzo.ai/industries/appliance-repair.md) Your business.
