AI receptionist and automation
Picking up every call to an Aloha service business
An AI receptionist answers every call to your business, day and night, qualifies the caller and books the job, and Lithium Marketing sets it up, manages it and builds custom automation for the office work that follows. Anyone calling about a leak or a dead outlet has other options: Washington County is home to 147 plumbing, heating and air-conditioning contractors and 130 electrical contractors, and a caller who gets no answer can move down the list.
Transfers keep a person on the calls that need one. You choose which callers ring straight through, such as a burst pipe or a customer asking for a technician by name, and the receptionist books, answers or texts back everyone else under your rules.
Where calls start
From an Aloha search to your phone line
“Water damage restoration aloha or” comes to about 10 searches a month in Google Ads data. If water damage or no-heat calls come in at night, you decide which of them ring the on-call phone at once and which are booked into the first open slot.
Calls from your map listing follow the same rules. When someone taps the number on your Google Business Profile, the receptionist answers their question from the knowledge base, then books the visit or texts them the next step.

Aloha households
What Aloha’s homes mean for the call script
Aloha has 18,616 occupied homes, and its median home was built in 1984. Put the questions your techs ask about houses that age into the receptionist’s knowledge base, such as the age of the water heater, panel or furnace, what the caller noticed and whether anyone will be home for the visit.
Some calls belong with emergency services first. In Aloha, fire protection and EMS come through Tualatin Valley Fire and Rescue and American Medical Response, and a rule can tell any caller who reports smoke, a gas smell or an injury to hang up and call for help before anything is booked.

Call rules by trade
Scripts for repair calls and for estimate calls
Repair calls need speed and a clear next step. The receptionist asks what failed, how urgent it is and the address, then books the visit, texts the details or rings your on-call phone, depending on the rule you set.
Estimate work asks different questions. Washington County has 197 painting contractors and 23 carpet and upholstery cleaners, and for trades like those the receptionist asks which rooms or surfaces, inside or out, and when the customer wants the work done, then puts the estimate or cleaning on your calendar.

Going live
Getting an Aloha receptionist ready for real calls
You hear and approve every rule before a customer does.
Sort the calls you get
Together we split your calls into emergencies, new jobs, price questions, existing customers and spam, and set what happens to each kind.
Put your business into words
The jobs you take and the ones you turn down, your hours, the places you cover and the answers you give on the phone go into the knowledge base in your own wording.
Link your calendar and CRM
We connect the receptionist to the scheduling and customer tools your office already uses, so bookings appear where your team already looks.
Test calls, then live calls
You ring the line yourself and try the hard questions before launch; after it, recordings and transcripts show where an answer needs work, and we fix it with you.
What the AI receptionist does on every call
The same eight parts go into every AI receptionist setup, wherever the business is.
- Answers every call, 24/7
- Qualifies the lead
- Books the appointment
- Answers common questions
- Sends follow-up texts
- Captures every detail
- Transfers to a real person when needed
- Connects to your CRM and calendar
On working phones
Two service businesses with Lithium AI on their phones
Two service businesses, two kinds of phone work. A plumbing company kept losing emergency calls after closing time to voicemail, so Lithium built it a custom AI phone system that sorts each call by urgency, texts the on-call tech and books routine jobs; the card shows what followed. Smart Doors LLC, a garage door company, has Lithium’s AI receptionist answering its phones, and its website is a Lithium build too.

FAQ
Questions about AI on your Aloha phone line
Still curious?
Call (503) 766-5964 or email [email protected].
Can it say no to jobs I don’t take?
Yes. The knowledge base lists the work you do and the places you go, and the receptionist checks each caller against it. Someone asking for work outside that list gets a polite, honest answer and no appointment, and anything that fits goes on your calendar.
Does it text customers after the call?
Yes. It handles SMS and MMS, so a caller can get the appointment details by text and reply with a photo or a question, and the receptionist answers those messages under the same rules you set for calls.
How can I hear it before signing up?
Call the demo line in the contact section below. Lithium’s own AI receptionist answers it, so you can ask the kinds of questions your customers ask and hear how it handles them. Setup for your business is usually live within days.
Is $179 a month the whole cost of the receptionist?
Yes. The receptionist is $179 a month, fully managed, with no setup fee and no contract, and you can cancel anytime. Custom AI automation, such as CRM updates or document processing, is priced on its own once we know the workflow.
What else can AI automate for an Aloha contractor?
Plenty of the paperwork. Common builds send a review request when a job closes, push call details into your CRM, read invoices or permits as they arrive, and keep a spreadsheet and your calendar in step. Each build is mapped with you first and typically takes one to two weeks.
Free action plan
Map out the call rules that book more Aloha jobs
Send a rough count of the calls that go unanswered in a week, the hours those calls arrive and the jobs you never want booked without you. Then you and a co-founder draft the call rules and knowledge base together, one call type at a time, over a short video call.
