Question 1

How is the missed call cost calculated?

Accepted Answer

We multiply your estimated missed calls per month by your average job value and close rate. For example, if you miss 40 calls/month, your average job is $350, and you close 40% of answered calls, each missed call costs you $140 in expected revenue.

Question 2

Where do the default values come from?

Accepted Answer

Default values are based on industry research and averages for each trade. Missed call rates range from 27–62% depending on the trade. Average job values and close rates are based on published industry data. You can adjust all values to match your business.

Question 3

What does "revenue recovered with Ringwell" mean?

Accepted Answer

This assumes Ringwell answers every call that currently goes to voicemail, applying your same close rate. The "recovered" amount is the difference between your current missed revenue and zero missed calls.

Is this calculator accurate for my business?
