I drive forklift and I help people who've never posted get started.
Short, simple videos: filming on the phone you already have, captions, what to post, and the free tools that make it easier. No gear to buy, nothing to pay for.
Start with your first video
Every video is one small thing you can do tonight with the phone in your pocket.
Start here →Stop losing the calls you miss
When you're on a job and the phone goes to voicemail, that caller tries the next shop. That's fixable.
See how →Never posted? Start with these three.
Twenty to thirty seconds each. One idea, one thing to go do. Most people start with the first one.
Run a local shop? Stop losing the calls you miss.
You're up on a roof or under a house, the phone rings, and it goes to voicemail. Plenty of callers never leave one. They just call the next shop. The fix is simple: every missed call gets a text back from your business number right away, and you pick it up from there.
Missed call → a text back
"Sorry we missed you, how can we help?" goes out from your number, and you get notified the moment they reply.
You approve every message
Nothing goes out that you haven't read first. Every text names your business and includes "Reply STOP." Texting only, never robocalls.
Already on Jobber or Housecall Pro?
You may already be paying for text-back and never switched it on. I'll set it up and tune the messages so it sounds like you.
- A ten-minute callHow you handle calls today, and what a booked job is worth to you.
- You approve the textsPlain words, in your voice. Nothing goes live until you say so.
- Fourteen days, freeI'm taking two free pilots with local service shops, like HVAC, plumbing, and duct cleaning. No card, no contract.
- I show you every call it caughtWhat came in, what got answered, what turned into work. Then you decide whether to keep it.
Who's behind this
I've driven a forklift in a big warehouse for nineteen years, and I still do. After shifts I learn AI and building tools, and I film what actually works, so someone starting from zero can skip the parts I got wrong.
I build in public, including the failures. I've published the time my trading bot's stop losses turned out not to exist, and the test that proved a system I'd spent a month on had no real edge. I posted that one even though it wasn't the answer I wanted.
That's the thing I'd want from anyone helping me: tell me when it isn't working.
