best AI answering service for florists (can’t pick up phone while arranging, needs to book delivery + grab card message + address)

Floral designers face a unique challenge: their work requires wet hands, sharp tools, and total focus on delicate arrangements, making it physically impossible to answer every phone call. SkipCalls solves this by acting as a professional floral design receptionist that answers instantly, captures the caller's specific needs, and provides a full transcript and summary of the delivery requirements so you can stay in your creative flow without losing revenue.

During peak seasons like Valentine's Day and Mother's Day, missing just one $150 bouquet order or a $500 funeral arrangement can significantly impact your bottom line. SkipCalls handles unlimited concurrent calls, ensuring that when three customers call at once, every single one is greeted professionally, their delivery address is recorded, and their card message is transcribed accurately. This allows small flower shops to compete with larger national chains by providing 24/7 availability without the $3,000 monthly cost of a human receptionist.

Beyond just answering, SkipCalls facilitates the entire customer journey. After an incoming call is handled, the AI can automatically send a follow-up text to the customer, allowing them to reply with additional details or photos of the arrangement style they prefer. For wedding florists, the SkipCalls calendar integration allows potential brides to book consultations directly through the AI, moving leads through your sales funnel while you are out on a delivery or event setup.
