30–40%
of inbound calls go unanswered
Missed calls
Home-service businesses miss a third of their calls. At a few hundred dollars per job, that's thousands in revenue going to voicemail — and then to a competitor — every single week.
AI websites & automation for local businesses
Dunn Consulting builds high-converting websites and AI systems — chatbots, missed-call text-back, 24/7 voice receptionists — that capture every lead your business generates, around the clock.
Industries we serve: Dental Practices, HVAC & Home Services, Law Firms, Real Estate, Financial Services, Med Spas, Plumbing & Electrical, Chiropractors, Accounting Firms, Veterinary Clinics
The problem
You're not losing leads because your marketing is bad. You're losing the leads you already paid for — at the phone, after hours, and in the follow-up.

5pm
is when your website goes quiet — your customers don't
Emergencies, new-patient inquiries, and hot leads don't keep business hours. If nothing answers at 9pm, the customer you spent money acquiring books with whoever does.
60%
of front-desk time spent on repetitive calls & scheduling
No-show reminders, review requests, lead follow-up — work that's critical but never urgent, so it slips. Every slip is money: a no-show, a lost review, a cold lead.
What we build
Each service works on its own. Together, they connect your phone, website, calendar, and CRM into a machine that never sleeps and never forgets to follow up.
Fast, modern websites engineered to convert visitors into booked appointments — with an AI layer built in from day one, not bolted on later.
Best for Every local business
When a call goes unanswered, the caller gets a text within 60 seconds and can book on the spot — before they dial your competitor.
Best for HVAC, dental, law firms
A natural-sounding AI answers your phone 24/7, handles common questions, qualifies callers, and books appointments straight into your calendar.
Best for HVAC, dental, med spas
Answers the same questions your staff fields all day — hours, insurance, pricing, availability — instantly, at any hour, and captures the lead.
Best for Every local business
Automated scheduling, reminders, and no-show recovery sequences that keep your calendar full without anyone lifting a finger.
Best for Dental, HVAC, med spas
Turns happy customers into a steady stream of 5-star Google reviews on autopilot — the single biggest driver of local search ranking.
Best for Every local business
Every inquiry scored, routed, and followed up automatically. Your pipeline stays organized and nothing falls through the cracks.
Best for Law, real estate, finance
Who we serve
We specialize in local service businesses with real, quantifiable pain — where one recovered call or booking visibly pays for the system.
Front desks spend 60% of their time answering the same calls and juggling the schedule.
One recovered no-show sequence typically pays for 2–3 months of service.
30–40% of inbound calls go unanswered — most of them during peak season.
A single recovered after-hours emergency call covers 1–2 months of service.
40–50% of staff time is admin overhead, and slow intake loses clients to faster firms.
One reclaimed admin hour per day is worth $3K–7.5K/month in billable time.
Leads that don't hear back within minutes move on — especially after hours.
One recovered lead easily covers 3–6 months of service.
Client onboarding, document collection, and compliance paperwork eat entire days.
Onboarding automated end to end — the highest-leverage niche we serve.

How it works
No big upfront commitment, no leap of faith. You see recovered revenue in writing before you spend a dollar on the full system.
We record a short video walkthrough of your website and phone setup, showing exactly where leads are leaking out — and what each gap is costing you.
We deploy missed-call text-back on your line, free. After two weeks you see the recovered leads in writing. No commitment, no risk.
We build your full package and connect it to your phone, calendar, and CRM. Most systems are live within 2–4 weeks of kickoff.
As the ROI shows up, we add capabilities one at a time — voice receptionist, review engine, onboarding flows — each proving itself before the next.
Who you're hiring
Founder, Dunn Consulting · United States
“I build the systems myself — every chatbot, every text-back flow, every voice receptionist that ships under the Dunn Consulting name.”
I started Dunn Consulting after watching local businesses lose the customers they'd already earned — calls ringing out at 5:30pm, web leads sitting unanswered overnight, no-shows nobody followed up on. Not a marketing problem. A plumbing problem.
So that's what I fix. I connect your phone, website, calendar, and CRM into one system that answers instantly, follows up automatically, and books work while you're on a job. You'll work with me directly — no account managers, no offshore support desk.

FAQ
Most chatbots just answer FAQs. What we build is a connected system: when someone calls after hours and you miss it, they get a text back within 60 seconds. Appointments book directly into your calendar without anyone touching them. Your phone, text, chat, calendar, and CRM all talk to each other so nothing falls through the cracks. The chatbot is one piece of a revenue machine.
Missed-call text-back can be live on your phone line within days. A full Growth package — voice receptionist, booking, CRM automation — typically launches within 2–4 weeks of kickoff.
No. You pay a one-time setup fee that covers the build, then a month-to-month retainer for hosting, monitoring, and improvements. If the system isn't paying for itself, you can walk away — though in practice, that's not what happens.
No. We connect to the phone system, calendar, and CRM you already use, and we manage the automation stack entirely on our side. Your team keeps working the way they always have — just with fewer dropped balls.
We set up missed-call text-back on your business line and run it for two weeks at no charge. At the end you get a plain-English report: how many calls were missed, how many leads were recovered, and what they were worth. Then you decide.
We do. Every package is fully managed — monitoring, tuning, content updates, and a monthly report showing calls answered, leads captured, and appointments booked. You focus on the work; we keep the machine running.
Book a free 20-minute audit call. We'll walk through your website and phone setup, show you exactly where leads are leaking, and tell you what we'd build first — whether you hire us or not.
