Why taxi firms miss so many calls
Nobody waits on hold for a taxi. They hang up and ring the next firm or open an app.
When the phone rings out
- Friday and Saturday nights, when every call comes at once
- early morning airport runs
- any time more than two people ring together
What they are ringing about
- a car needed now
- an airport run booked in advance
- a fare quote for a longer journey
What that costs a single site
£7,700
a month, on conservative assumptions
About 120 missed calls a week. Assume only a third would have become customers, that is roughly 40 a week, and one customer is worth £45 to a taxi firm. Change any of those to your own figures and the answer stays uncomfortable.
Built around how a taxi firm actually works
Answers unlimited calls at the same time
Takes the pickup, destination and time
Quotes fares from your price list
Handles the Friday night peak without a queue
It tells callers what it is
It says it is an assistant when it picks up. It gives no advice it is not qualified to give, and anything on your escalation list stops the conversation and reaches you straight away. For a taxi firm that matters more than the clever bits, because the calls you cannot afford to get wrong are the ones you most need answered.
What taxi firms ask us
Our problem is everyone ringing at once. Does it help?
It is the one thing that does. It answers any number of calls simultaneously, so a Saturday night rush does not produce an engaged tone.
Can it quote a fare?
From your price list or your zones, yes, which is what most callers want before booking.
What about advance airport bookings?
It takes the flight, the time and the address, and those are your most profitable jobs and the easiest to lose.
