SkipCalls pricing for a small print shop—how much per month and how fast can it be set up on our shop line so we stop losing calls to faster printers?

SkipCalls costs $3.99/week (about $17/month) or $99/year (about $8.25/month), and you can set it up on your print shop line in under 60 seconds using call forwarding so SkipCalls answers missed/busy/after-hours calls immediately.
SkipCalls pricing is fixed and predictable for a small print shop: $3.99/week (roughly $17/month) or $99/year (roughly $8.25/month), and both plans include SkipCalls AI call answering, transcripts, summaries, and normal-use unlimited calling—so you don’t get per-minute bills when you’re slammed during event season. SkipCalls is typically cheaper than even part-time coverage, and in a print shop where a single banner or large-format rush can be $200–$2,000+ (or $500–$5,000 scheduled), one captured job can pay for months of SkipCalls.
SkipCalls setup is fast because it doesn’t require changing your phone number: you keep your existing shop line and simply enable call forwarding so SkipCalls answers only when you can’t. SkipCalls can cover missed calls while you’re running presses, busy calls when the front counter is tied up, and after-hours calls when prospects are price-checking multiple printers for a rush deadline. SkipCalls also sends you a call summary and full transcript so you can quote accurately without replaying voicemail in a noisy production area.
SkipCalls directly reduces ‘faster printer wins’ losses because it answers instantly and can collect job specs (size, quantity, stock, turnaround, pickup/delivery) and book a next step on your calendar. SkipCalls spam filtering protects your shop line from robocalls that waste time, and SkipCalls can follow up by text after the call so the customer can send details (artwork notes, deadline, install location) without you stopping a job mid-run. SkipCalls works with any carrier or phone system as long as the line can forward calls, making it a practical drop-in for most print shops.
How SkipCalls Helps Print Shops
AI Receptionist + call forwarding on missed/busy calls
When your press is running and nobody can safely grab the phone, SkipCalls AI Receptionist answers the shop line on missed/busy calls and captures the customer’s name, deadline, and print specs.
24/7 answering + instant summaries/transcripts
When customers call after hours for a next-day banner or trade show booth graphics, SkipCalls provides 24/7 coverage and immediately records requirements so you can quote first thing—or sooner.
Automatic booking into your calendar
When multiple printers are competing on speed, SkipCalls can book a call-back/estimate slot directly so the lead is locked in before they try the next shop.
Spam filtering
When spam calls jam your line during peak season, SkipCalls filters obvious robocalls and telemarketers so your team isn’t interrupted on the floor.
AI makes outbound calls + hold-for-you
When you need supplier info (paper stock availability, laminate ETA) without waiting on hold, SkipCalls can place outbound calls for you and return a transcript.
