Representative call—not a customer recording

Caller: I am calling about new solar inquiry.

Reece: I can collect the details your solar installers team uses for the next step.

Boundary: Reece records the request and applies the approved rule; the business confirms professional judgments and commitments.

Separate solar installers calls before asking a long questionnaire

New solar inquiry, Existing project update, Service or monitoring call, Ownership or utility question are different caller jobs. A useful receptionist identifies the job first, then asks only the questions that change the callback or routing decision. That keeps a routine inquiry from following the same path as a time-sensitive or existing-customer request.

• New solar inquiry
• Existing project update
• Service or monitoring call
• Ownership or utility question

Create a concise, reviewable intake record

The approved field set should cover property and utility area, new or existing system, caller-observed issue or project stage, ownership and preferred next step. Each answer belongs in a call record that a team member can review alongside the recording, transcript, summary, caller details, and outcome. Avoid collecting sensitive or speculative information that the team will not use.

• property and utility area
• new or existing system
• caller-observed issue or project stage
• ownership and preferred next step

Use the solar project and service call router

The central planning tool on this page is a solar project and service call router. Write the allowed questions, stop conditions, destination, fallback, and owner of the next action in plain language. Then test the map with a straightforward request, an incomplete answer, a changed detail, an unsupported question, and a destination that does not answer.

Keep promises with the people who can authorize them

No savings, tax-credit, utility approval, production, or installation claim. Reece may repeat a current, business-approved fact when the caller and request fit the rule. When the facts do not fit, the truthful action is to acknowledge the limit, capture the request, and send it to the configured destination rather than infer an answer.

Product boundary: No savings, tax-credit, utility approval, production, or installation claim.

Define the next step and its evidence

Route sales, project, and service calls separately so authorized staff can verify incentives, production, approvals, and work. A request, captured preference, fallback link, or transfer attempt is not the same as a completed appointment or accepted job. Name the outcome accurately in the call record so the receiving employee knows what happened and what remains open.

Design after-hours and no-answer behavior

Outside normal hours, decide which solar installers requests should be recorded for the next work period, which should attempt an approved destination, and when automation must stop. If a transfer destination or provider does not complete the action, use a documented fallback; never imply that a person, crew, appointment, or response has been secured when it has not.

Run evidence-led acceptance calls

Test at least six calls: a common new solar inquiry, a different service path, a caller who corrects an answer, an unsupported request, an after-hours call, and a failed next step. Review the recording, transcript, summary, captured fields, routing outcome, and staff follow-up. Revise the flow before relying on it.

Decide fit and non-fit explicitly

A strong fit has repeatable caller jobs, current approved facts, bounded actions, reviewable evidence, and employees who can maintain the flow. A weaker fit has constantly changing rules, frequent negotiation, complex identity or eligibility decisions, high-stakes professional judgment, or no reliable owner for exceptions. Write both lists before trial. Where only part of the workload fits, use Reece for a narrow after-hours, overflow, or routine-intake path and preserve a human route for the rest. The product-led trial is evidence-gathering time, not proof that every call type should be automated.

Create a decision record another employee can audit

At the end of evaluation, record the canonical query, intended audience, covered call types, excluded call types, knowledge sources, plan requirements, destinations, provider dependencies, acceptance results, open defects, owner approvals, analytics events, and next review date. Link the call samples used for the decision without placing caller personal data in marketing analytics. The record should explain why this page and workflow exist separately from adjacent topics and which page owns overlapping queries. That makes future consolidation, refresh, or retirement a controlled decision instead of a guess based on traffic alone.

How Reece handles the call

1. Forward the calls you choose. Keep the number customers already know, then use your phone provider's instructions to forward all calls or missed calls only to Reece.
2. Reece answers with approved knowledge. Reece answers the configured call and uses business knowledge the owner has reviewed before it becomes active.
3. The caller explains what they need. Reece answers approved FAQs and gathers the caller, request, and intake details needed for a clear next step.
4. A supported handoff happens. Eligible Scale and Growth setups can use configured direct or warm transfers. Otherwise, Reece records details or an appointment request for staff follow-up.
5. Your team reviews the result. The recording, transcript, summary, caller details, and outcome stay together in the responsive web dashboard.

Your team stays in control. Reece handles approved call intake and configured routing. Your team still owns diagnosis, safety decisions, pricing, dispatch, appointment confirmation, and any follow-up that needs a person.

Know the handoff before you forward a call

Can I keep my current number?

Plans include 1, 3, or 10 Reece phone numbers. Businesses can keep an existing number and forward selected calls to Reece.

Can Reece take missed calls only?

Yes. Choose missed-call forwarding when staff should have the first chance to answer, or forward all calls when Reece should answer first. Your provider controls forwarding behavior.

What if the caller needs a person?

Scale and Growth support owner-configured direct and warm transfers. Reece does not include a staffed human fallback, so the team must define the follow-up path for calls that are not transferred.

Does an appointment request mean booked?

Reece can capture appointment requests, preferred times, caller details, and approved intake answers for staff follow-up. The current production UI does not offer customer-configurable calendar connections or direct provider-backed booking, so Reece does not report an appointment as confirmed.

Setup is guided, but completion time varies with business rules, transfer routing, testing, and carrier forwarding. Call results are available in the web dashboard. Production email delivery and SMS notifications are not currently offered.
