The planer is running. The customer can wait — or leave.
Workshop, dust, machines running: the phone isn't a priority when the piece must ship Friday. And bespoke work sells on the relationship — an unanswered call sends the customer to the big-box store's catalog furniture.

The problem
Where it leaks
Workshop, dust, machines running: the phone isn't a priority when the piece must ship Friday. And bespoke work sells on the relationship — an unanswered call sends the customer to the big-box store's catalog furniture.
The fix
What Signal does

FAQ
Cabinetmakers: your questions
A customer wants a custom bookcase: what do they get?
A text within 10 seconds, then AI gathers the project: room, approximate dimensions, wood species considered, timeline. A workshop visit slot is offered in your calendar — that's where bespoke gets sold, not on the phone.
How much does a missed call cost a cabinetmaker?
With a $2,500 average order and 6–10 missed calls a month, losses run $3,000–5,000 a month. One recovered bookcase pays for the year.
I answer when the machine is off. Conflict?
No: Signal only activates on genuinely missed calls — no answer, busy line, closed hours. You answer, the workshop stays the workshop.
Do cabinetmaking customers call in the evening?
Yes, after their day, often between 6 and 8 p.m. — bespoke projects get discussed as a couple. The text goes out in under 10 seconds at any hour and AI qualifies 24/7.
How long does setup take?
48 hours: forwarding code dialed once, script in your brand — bespoke, restoration, fit-out — and a live test call. No tools to add to the workshop.
