Never Miss a Lead on Your BigCommerce Store

Let’s face it – when someone’s ready to buy roofing services or book an HVAC repair, they’re not going to wait around for an email reply. With LeadTruffle’s texting widget, your BigCommerce store can turn website visitors into SMS conversations instantly. Here’s how to set it up in 5 minutes flat.

What You’ll Need

  1. A LeadTruffle account (14-day free trial)
  2. Admin access to your BigCommerce store

Step 1: Copy Your Widget Code

  1. Log into LeadTruffle
  2. Go to Website TextingStyles
  3. Customize colors/branding if needed
  4. Click “Copy Code” (looks like: <script src="...leadtruffle.com/widget.js"></script>)

Step 2: Add to BigCommerce

  1. In BigCommerce admin:
    • Go to StorefrontScript Manager
    • Click Create a Script
  2. Paste code:
    • Location on page: Footer
    • Script category: Essential
    • Script type: Script
    • Script content: Paste your LeadTruffle code
  3. Click Save

Step 3: Test Your Widget

  1. Visit your live store
  2. Look for the chat bubble in bottom-right corner
  3. Submit a test lead: “John Smith – 555-123-4567”
  4. Check your LeadTruffle dashboard – you should see the test lead

Pro Tip: Use AI Responder settings to customize automated questions like:

  • “What type of service do you need?”
  • “When’s your preferred appointment date?”
  • “Can you share a photo of the issue?”

Why This Works for Home Services

  • Compliance built-in: Widget includes required SMS opt-in language
  • Mobile-first: 85% of service requests come from phones
  • Zero typing: Customers just share name/number – AI handles the rest
