A business phone for landscaping and lawn care
Spring calls come in faster than a lawn crew can answer them. Onyx Phone gives your business one number the office and the crew all answer, with texting for visit reminders, and hours you can change with the seasons.
Answered by whoever's free
The office answers in the browser; the crew answers on the iPhone and Android apps. Everyone on the line rings at once, and customers only see the business number. When nobody can pick up, missed-call text-back texts them so the estimate request doesn't go to the next company on the list.
Texting customers about visits
Unlimited two-way texting is included on every plan: "We're on the way", "Rain moved your mow to Thursday", or "Your estimate is ready." Texts are shared by everyone on the line, so the office sees what the crew told a customer.
Seasonal hours
Change business hours when the season turns, and let the after-hours message point customers to your website or the next opening. Add and remove teammates as the crew grows and shrinks, and the bill follows.
More than one business on one account
Run lawn care and snow removal, or landscaping and paving, as separate lines on one account, each with its own number, history, and team. People only see the lines they're assigned to.
Getting started
- Create a login and pick a plan. Checkout saves a card for the 7-day free trial, and nothing is charged until it ends.
- Confirm your business and its 911 address, and get a local number on the spot. Bringing your own number? You answer on a temporary one while it moves over, for free.
- Choose where calls ring, write what callers hear, invite your team, and register for texting. Then answer in the browser, the iPhone and Android apps, or a desk phone. How it works has the details.
Included on every plan
Starter is $17, Business is $29, Scale is $42 per user a month, or less billed yearly. The plan includes a business number for each user and unlimited calling and texting in the US and Canada. Every plan starts with a 7-day free trial, and moving your current number over is free.
Questions
Can we text customers from the business number?
Yes, unlimited on every plan, after US carriers approve your business for texting, which usually takes one to two weeks.
Can I run two companies on one account?
Yes. Each business gets its own lines, verification, and texting registration, on one bill.
