Stop Losing Customers When Your Line Is Busy
67% of callers never call back after hitting voicemail or a busy signal. SkipCalls AI catches every overflow call - answering instantly when you can not, booking appointments, and texting you the details. Handle unlimited peak-hour calls for $99/year.
The Problem: Peak Hours Cost You Customers
Your best opportunities come when you are busiest. A storm hits and 50 homeowners need repairs. Monday morning and every patient wants to schedule. Tax season and clients are calling non-stop. You can only handle one call at a time - and every caller who gets voicemail calls your competitor next.
- Your best customers call during your busiest times - and get a busy signal or voicemail.
- You can only take one call at a time, but 3 people need you right now.
- By the time you call back, they already booked with your competitor.
- Traditional overflow services charge $1-3 per minute - a 10-minute call costs $30.
- You hired staff to help, but they can not handle the volume during seasonal rushes.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I set up overflow forwarding?
Most phone systems support "busy/no-answer" forwarding. On your cell phone, dial *71 + your SkipCalls number. For landlines and VoIP, check your provider settings for "conditional forwarding." Setup takes about 2 minutes.
Will callers know they reached overflow?
No. The AI answers with your business name and handles the call exactly as you would. Callers experience seamless service - they just know someone helpful answered instead of voicemail.
Can the AI book appointments during overflow?
Yes. SkipCalls syncs with Google Calendar, Calendly, and other scheduling tools. The AI can check your availability and book appointments in real-time, even during your busiest hours.
What if I get 50 overflow calls at once?
No problem. Unlike human-based overflow services that have limited staff, SkipCalls AI handles unlimited simultaneous calls. Every caller gets immediate service.
How fast does the AI pick up?
Instantly. When the call forwards to SkipCalls, the AI answers within the first ring. No hold music, no "please wait" - immediate response.
What about urgent calls during overflow?
You configure what counts as urgent. The AI can immediately text or call you for emergencies (burst pipes, medical issues, security concerns) while handling routine inquiries on its own.
