Twenty minutes of notes after every call.

01 Case studies

Twenty minutes of notes after every call.

AI implementation at a seed-stage home services company
Result
Post-call work, 20 minutes to under 5. Two more appointments a day on each rep's calendar.
Situation
A concierge business where responsiveness is the product, and reps spent the time after every call typing instead of dialing.
Blocker
Nobody had written down what a good call log contained. I graded a hundred real calls to write the spec, then let the model do the typing.

One in four signed deals bounced.

Deal desk at a public residential solar company
Result
Deal rejections, 25% to 5%. Cancellations down 11%, and the gate still processes tens of thousands of deals a quarter, ten years on.
Situation
Reps sent incomplete deal packages, ops kicked them back, and customers cancelled in the gap.
Blocker
Nothing in the workflow depended on the paperwork being right. Commission paid on signature, so the package was an afterthought.

Two days per quote, in a sale decided this week.

Proposal generation at a private roofing and solar manufacturer
Result
Proposal turnaround, 48 hours to 20 minutes. Pitch rate up 20% on a $48M partner channel.
Situation
Two hundred roofing partners sold the product, and every proposal round-tripped through an internal team.
Blocker
The pricing and product data already existed. The handoff between the partner's CRM and ours did not.

The best closers weren't getting the volume.

Appointment routing at a public residential solar company
Result
Appointment-to-sit conversion, up 50% across 800 retail reps.
Situation
Thousands of retail appointments a month, and conversion looked like a rep skill problem.
Blocker
Appointments went out with no allocation logic, so the wrong rep got the wrong appointment at the wrong time.

Three thousand tickets a month, nobody triaging.

Shared inbox at a seed-stage home services company
Result
SLA compliance, none to the low 90s. The urgent tickets surface the day they arrive.
Situation
A shared inbox took 3,000 tickets a month with no categories and no SLAs, so the urgent ones waited behind the rest.
Blocker
Most tickets were sortable by rules and the rest needed judgment, and nobody had separated the two. Rules for the obvious ones, a model for the ambiguous ones, a priority score on every ticket.

Referring a contractor took hours and several hand-offs.

Contractor referrals at a seed-stage home services company
Result
Speed-to-referral, up 50%. Reps match and book a contractor while the homeowner is still on the call.
Situation
Matching a homeowner to a vetted contractor was the product, and it happened after the call, by hand, across several people.
Blocker
The matching data was in the CRM the whole time. Nothing put it in front of the rep during the call, so I prototyped the widget in a day and handed the dev team a working version.
