What are missed calls costing your business?
Three numbers from your own business: missed calls a week, how many would have become paid jobs, and your average job value. No email needed, and the formula is right there.
Your numbers
The boxes start with round example numbers, not industry averages. Replace them with yours.
- Missed calls a month
- 21.7
- …that would have been paid jobs
- 4.3
- Towntide Founding 25
- $109/month
That's about 11.9× the Founding 25 price. Less than one saved job a month would cover it.
An estimate from the numbers you type, not a prediction or a Towntide result. Some missed callers call back, and not every answered call becomes a job. Nothing you type is saved or sent; the share link only puts your numbers in the address.
How the estimate works
Missed calls per week × 52 ÷ 12 × % that would have become paid jobs × your average job value = lost revenue per month (× 12 for a year).
A month is 52 ÷ 12 ≈ 4.33 weeks. That's the whole calculation: your numbers, your estimate.
What Towntide Voice does with those calls
An AI receptionist for plumbing, HVAC, electrical and roofing businesses. When you can't pick up, it answers in your business's name, says it's an AI, books routine jobs into your calendar and texts you emergencies straight away. You keep your number.

Questions
How is the estimate worked out?
Missed calls per week × 52 ÷ 12 × % that would have become paid jobs × your average job value = lost revenue per month (× 12 for a year). Nothing else is added: no industry multipliers, no hidden assumptions.
Where do the starting numbers come from?
On this page they're round example numbers, not averages: 5 missed calls a week, 20% becoming paid jobs and a 300 job value. Replace them with your own. The trade pages start the job value at a published US average, with the source linked.
How do I find how many calls I miss?
Your phone's recent-calls list or your carrier's call log shows missed and declined calls. Count a normal week, and leave out spam and calls you returned in time.
Will an AI receptionist win all of these jobs back?
No tool can promise that. Some callers will already have booked someone else, and not every answered call becomes a job. Answering every call gives you the chance at the work instead of losing it to voicemail.
Is anything I type saved or sent?
No. The calculator runs in your browser. The share link just puts your numbers in the address, so only people you send it to see them.
