For any home service business
A sales rep who texts your customers.
Your customer list is sitting there. Sam texts the ones who went quiet, follows up on every estimate you send, and gets the yes. He sets his own follow-ups. You read every word.
$297 a month. No contract. Cancel any time.
Sam runs on Markate. Not on it? Get on the list.
A real conversation. Name, street and company changed.
From the first business running Sam. Your numbers depend on your list.
Real conversations.
Real texts from one business’s phone. Names, streets and the company changed, nothing else.
Sent Tuesday. Sam checked in the next Monday. Closed at $1,298.
Another quote came in 30% lower. Sam didn’t argue. Her deck is on his calendar for spring.
No sale today. A customer who likes us and a check-in next spring.
How it works
One afternoon to set up. Then Sam runs every day.
Give Sam your customers
Sam reads your customers and estimates straight from Markate, and sees every accept the moment it happens. That’s how he knows when to talk and when to stop.
Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan, QuickBooks, a spreadsheet. Sam runs on Markate today. Leave your cell and the system you run, and you get a text the day Sam works with it. Markate itself imports a spreadsheet of customers in about twenty minutes, if you’d rather not wait.
Put me on the list- 2
Teach Sam your business
Your services, your prices, how you talk to people. He never makes anything up. If he doesn’t know, he asks you.
- 3
Sam texts. He sets his own follow-ups.
Quiet customers, unanswered estimates, the seasonal push. Sam decides who, when, and what to say, and books his own callbacks. You read every conversation and jump in whenever you want.
- 4
The yes lands in your lap
When a customer says yes, the estimate is accepted in Markate and Sam texts you and the office: who, what, how much. You schedule it. Sam stops texting the moment it’s signed, because he saw it happen.
What Sam does all day
The follow-up work nobody on your crew has time for.
Brings back quiet customers
Everyone who used you once and never came back. Sam picks the right ones, at the right time of year, and texts them like he remembers them.
Follows up on every estimate
Sent an estimate and heard nothing? Sam follows up, answers questions, and gets the yes.
Books from a text
The customer says yes, picks what they want, and it’s done. No link chasing, no phone tag.
Works with your team
Your reps text Sam like a coworker. “Who’s on the Reyes job?” He answers, or gets the right person.
Knows when to stop
Never texts a landline, a dead number, or anyone who said no. One reply of “stop” and he stops for good.
Reports every morning
People texted, who replied, what booked, what needs a human. One short message, before your coffee.
Pricing
One number. Less than one job a month, for most businesses.

Invite-only for now. We bring on a few businesses at a time so every Sam is taught right.
Sam answers the line when you can’t. Takes the message, gets the yes, texts you the summary. Same voice, same manners.
Tell me when it’s readyQuestions people ask first
Does Sam sound like a robot?
No. Read the conversations above. Short, friendly, first names, no scripts. Customers reply to him like a person because he reads like one. You can read every conversation.
Will he ever quote a price or promise something wrong?
He only uses the services, prices, and rules you taught him. If a customer asks something he wasn’t taught, he says he’ll check and hands it to you. He does not make things up.
Do I need Markate?
Yes. Sam reads your customers and estimates from Markate and sees every accept the moment it happens, which is how he knows when to keep talking and when to stop. Not on Markate? Get on the list and you’ll hear the day Sam works with your system. Markate imports a spreadsheet of customers in about twenty minutes if you’d rather switch now.
Does Sam schedule jobs?
No. He gets the yes and hands it to you or your office with who, what, and how much. Scheduling stays in your hands and in your system. What he schedules is himself: every callback, every follow-up, on his own.
What if a customer says stop?
He stops, for good. He also never texts landlines, disconnected numbers, or anyone you’ve marked inactive.
Can my crew use it too?
Yes. Your reps text Sam from their own phones, ask about jobs, and get pulled in when a customer asks for a human. Commission on accepted estimates stays with the rep who sent them.
Give Sam a season with your list.
Every customer who went quiet, every estimate nobody answered. $297 a month. No contract. Cancel any time.
