Personalise Your Greeting

We send you a setup link via SMS. Tap it to customise the auto-reply text your customers receive when you miss their call.

  • Set your display name (e.g. "Mick" instead of "Michael Johnson")
  • Write your SMS greeting in your own words
  • Set your work hours for after-hours messages
  • Choose your trade type and service area
Tip: Keep your greeting casual and ask for the job details + suburb. Something like: "Hey! Sorry I missed your call. Shoot me a text with what you need and your suburb and I'll get back to you ASAP. — Mick"

Step 3

Turn On Call Forwarding

We send you an activation link. Tap two buttons and your phone will automatically forward missed calls to TradieLead. Takes about 10 seconds.

  • Step 1: Tap to disable voicemail (so we catch the call first)
  • Step 2: Tap to activate call forwarding to your TradieLead number
  • Works on all Australian carriers (Telstra, Optus, Vodafone)
  • Your phone still rings normally — we only pick up if you don't
Tip: Calls ring your phone for 30 seconds first. If you don't answer, TradieLead kicks in automatically. You'll never miss a call you could have taken.

Miss a Call, Catch the Lead

That's it — you're done. Next time you miss a call, TradieLead takes over automatically:

  • Caller hears your personalised voicemail greeting
  • They press 1 (filters out spam and robocalls)
  • They receive your auto-reply SMS within seconds
  • They text back with the job details
  • AI classifies the lead (trade type, urgency, location)
  • You see it all in your lead dashboard
Pro tip: Try it out! Call your own number from another phone and let it ring out. You'll hear the voicemail and get the auto-text — exactly like your customers will.
