Pickup Call (475) 270-6838

Never lose a job to voicemail again.

You can't answer the phone with clippers in your hand.

The phone always rings at the worst time. And when it goes to voicemail, lots of people won't leave a message. They just call the next shop.

How it works

Up and running in three steps.

  1. 01

    Free setup call

    Tell Mars your hours, services, prices and rules. He builds your Pickup line and gets it a number.

  2. 02

    Forward your missed calls

    Keep your number. Calls you don't pick up go to Pickup instead of voicemail. We'll walk you through it.

  3. 03

    It answers. You get the job.

    It answers questions, books the job, and shows you a summary of every call.

What it does

It handles the phone so you can handle the work.

  • Answers 24/7

    Nights, weekends, holidays. It sounds natural and tells callers it's a virtual assistant.

  • Books the job

    Puts jobs on your calendar and skips closed days and days off. Already use a booking app? It takes the request and you lock it in.

  • Only says what you tell it

    It never makes up prices. Change what it knows any time.

  • Your shop on your phone

    Add your Pickup page to your home screen and see every call as it comes in.

  • Every call, summed up

    See who called, what they wanted and what got booked.

  • Urgent calls go to you

    Tell it what counts as urgent and it can send those calls to your cell.

  • Your team gets a page

    Each worker sees their jobs and marks their own days off.

  • Safe by design

    It never takes card numbers and tells anyone in danger to call 911.

Is it worth it?

Do the math on your missed calls.

8 calls

Just one visit or job. Not what a customer is worth over a whole year.

Jobs you'd get back $480 a month

If Pickup books just 1 in 4 of the calls you miss, that's about how much comes back to you.

Pickup · $200 a month Pays for itself with 4 booked jobs a month

The math: calls you miss a week × 4 weeks × 1 in 4 booked × one job.

Done for you

Not another app to figure out.

Most AI phone apps hand you a login and wish you luck. With Pickup, a real person sets it up, tests it on a real call, and fixes anything that comes up. You just run your shop.

Your setup call is with Mars. He builds every Pickup line himself.

Questions

Good questions.

Will callers know it's AI?

Yes. It tells callers it's a virtual assistant. It sounds natural, but it never pretends to be a person.

Do I need a new phone number?

No. You keep your number. Only the calls you don't answer go to Pickup.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Your first month is free. After that it's $200 a month, and you can cancel any time.

Does it work with Booksy or my booking app?

It works alongside it. Pickup answers the calls you miss and takes the request, and you lock it in on your booking app. It also tells callers they can book themselves online.

What if it doesn't know something?

It only says what you've told it. If it doesn't know, it takes a message so you can call back.

Can it take payments?

No. It never takes card numbers.

What about emergencies?

It tells anyone in danger to call 911. For urgent jobs, it can send the call to your cell.

Is there a contract?

No. It's month to month, and you can cancel any time.

Does it work where I am?

It works anywhere in the US. If your phone can forward missed calls, it works with Pickup.

What counts as a minute?

The time Pickup spends on the phone with your callers. Your plan covers up to 2,000 minutes a month.

Stop losing jobs to voicemail.
