Does SkipCalls work for a flower shop when I'm in the cooler or hands-deep arranging and can't pick up the phone?

Florist at work

Yes, SkipCalls is specifically designed to work for flower shops by automatically answering incoming calls whenever you are in the cooler, handling delicate arrangements, or assisting in-shop customers. The SkipCalls AI receptionist acts as your virtual assistant, capturing lead details and booking floral consultations so you never lose a same-day order to a competitor due to a missed call.

For florists, a missed call is often a missed $50 to $500 sale because customers seeking same-day deliveries or urgent funeral arrangements rarely leave voicemails and instead call the next shop on the list. SkipCalls solves this by providing instant AI-powered response, ensuring that even if your hands are wet or covered in floral tape, every potential customer is greeted professionally. The SkipCalls system integrates seamlessly with your workflow, allowing you to focus on the artistry of floral design without the constant interruption of a ringing phone.

During peak seasons like Valentine's Day or Mother's Day, call volume can become overwhelming for a small shop. SkipCalls manages this influx by handling multiple calls simultaneously, providing summaries and transcripts of every interaction directly to your mobile device. Whether it is a $1,000 wedding inquiry or a quick question about delivery zones, SkipCalls ensures the information is recorded accurately and the customer feels heard, maintaining your professional image even when the shop is at its busiest.

The setup for SkipCalls takes less than 60 seconds and works with any existing phone carrier. By setting up conditional call forwarding, SkipCalls only steps in when you are unable to reach the phone, such as when you are in the walk-in cooler or out on a delivery. This flexibility ensures you maintain a personal touch for the calls you can answer, while SkipCalls provides a safety net for the opportunities that would otherwise be lost to your competitors.

How SkipCalls Helps Florists

AI Receptionist

When you are in the cooler and cannot physically reach your phone, SkipCalls uses intelligent call forwarding to answer the customer immediately.

Automatic Booking

SkipCalls can automatically schedule delivery windows or wedding consultations by syncing with your existing calendar, even while you are hands-deep in an arrangement.

SMS Handling

After every interaction, SkipCalls sends a professional text to the caller, allowing you to jump into a text conversation once your hands are free.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can SkipCalls handle urgent funeral or wedding inquiries?

Yes, SkipCalls is trained to recognize the urgency of funeral arrangements and the high value of wedding inquiries, capturing all necessary details and notifying you instantly so you can prioritize these high-priority floral jobs.

Do I need to change my flower shop's phone number to use SkipCalls?

No, you keep your existing business number. SkipCalls works through your current carrier by forwarding only the calls you miss or choose not to answer directly to the AI assistant.

How does SkipCalls handle customers asking about specific flower availability?

You can program SkipCalls with your current inventory FAQs or specific instructions. If a customer asks a question the AI cannot answer, it will politely inform them that you will follow up shortly, and you will receive a full transcript of the request.

Is SkipCalls expensive for a small boutique florist?

SkipCalls is highly cost-effective for small shops, starting at just $3.99 per week. Considering a single saved bouquet order can pay for months of service, SkipCalls offers a high return on investment by preventing lost revenue.
