Miss the call.
Keep the lead.
You can't answer every call from up a ladder or under a sink. So when you miss one, Instant Lead Reply texts the caller back in 8 seconds — with your name and a personal message — so the lead stays warm and stays with you, instead of ringing the next tradie on Google. Built into every Upflare plan for $349/month, no lock-in.
62% of callers won't leave
a voicemail.
They call, it rings out, they hang up and dial the next name on the list. You never even knew the job existed. For a tradie who's flat out on the tools, missed calls aren't the exception — they're most of the day. Every one is a customer with money to spend and a problem to fix, handing themselves to whoever answers first. Instant Lead Reply makes sure that's you, even when you physically can't pick up.
Faster than they can redial
The caller gets a text back before they've had time to scroll to the next tradie. A fast, personal reply is often the entire reason they choose you over the bloke who never called back.
Personal, not a robot
Your name, your wording: "Hi, it's Dave, sorry I missed you — I'll call you straight back." It reads like a real person who's just busy, because you are, and that's exactly why it works.
Works on your number
No new phone, no hardware, nothing to switch on each morning — we set it all up on the number you already use, and it only fires when you miss a call.
See who you saved
Every missed call and auto-reply shows up in the client app, so you can ring people back at the end of the day and see exactly how many jobs the text-back kept warm.
Getting found is wasted if the call rings out
Think about the full journey. Your website and local SEO get you found on Google. Your reviews convince the customer to pick you. They tap call — and you're 12 metres up a roof. Without Instant Lead Reply, everything the rest of the system earned walks straight to a competitor in that moment.
That's the whole reason Upflare bundles these together instead of selling them as three separate products. Being found, being trusted and being reachable are one problem, not three. Miss any one of them and the other two leak. One tradie auto-replied to 34 missed calls in a single month and converted 9 of them into jobs — nine jobs that would otherwise have been someone else's.

What exactly happens when I miss a call?
Within about 8 seconds, the caller gets a text from your number — something like "Hi, it's Dave from Dave's Plumbing, sorry I missed your call, I'm on the tools right now and I'll ring you back shortly." The lead knows they've reached a real business that will call back, so they wait for you instead of dialling the next name on Google.
Do I need a new phone or any hardware?
No. Instant Lead Reply works on your existing mobile number — there's no new phone and no hardware, and nothing for you to set up, because we configure it all for you. You keep taking calls exactly as you do now — the automatic text only fires when you can't pick up.
Can I change the message?
Yes. The text-back message is fully customisable — your name, your wording, your tone. You set it once in the client app and can update it any time.
Why does replying fast matter so much?
Because 62% of callers won't leave a voicemail — they just call the next tradie on the list. A caller who gets an instant, personal text back is far more likely to hold out for you. Being the one who responds first is often the whole reason you win the job.
