Never Miss a Lead Again: Connect Google Voice to LeadTruffle

Picture this: You're up on a roof inspecting storm damage when your phone rings. By the time you climb down, the call goes to voicemail - and the lead moves on to your competitor. With LeadTruffle and Google Voice, those days are over.

Why This Combo Works

  1. 24/7 lead capture: AI texts leads instantly, even at 9PM
  2. Zero tech skills required: Set up in 5 minutes
  3. Compliance handled: Opt-in messages automatically included

Step-by-Step Setup

1. Get Your LeadTruffle Forwarding Number

  1. Log into LeadTruffle
  2. Go to Missed Calls → Settings
  3. Copy your dedicated phone number (we'll use this in Google Voice)

2. Configure Google Voice Call Forwarding

  1. Open Google Voice
  2. Click ⚙️ Settings → Calls
  3. Under Call forwarding, toggle Forward calls to linked numbers
  4. Click Add another phone → paste your LeadTruffle number
  5. Set forwarding to When this device rings: Never

3. Record Your Voicemail Greeting (2 Minutes)

  1. In LeadTruffle's Missed Calls section:
    • Click Record Greeting
    • Use a simple message: "You've reached [Your Company]. Leave a message and we'll text you right back."

How It Works in Real Life

Scenario: A homeowner calls about emergency water heater repair at 6:45AM

  1. Google Voice forwards to LeadTruffle
  2. Lead hears your voicemail greeting
  3. Lead leaves message: "Need replacement ASAP!"
  4. LeadTruffle AI texts them:Hi [Name], this is [Your Company] - thanks for calling! We'll have someone call shortly. Can you share:
    • Your home address
    • Water heater type (gas/electric)
    • Any visible leaks? (Photos help!)
  5. Qualified lead details sync to your CRM automatically

Pro Tips

  • Test your setup: Call your own Google Voice number after hours
  • Customize AI questions: Update prompts in AI settings
  • Add Zapier integration: Auto-create service tickets in tools like Jobber

Bottom Line

Missed calls cost the average HVAC company $18,000/year in lost revenue (Frost & Sullivan). With LeadTruffle handling Google Voice call forwarding:

  • Respond to leads 24/7 without hiring staff
  • Qualify leads while they're still hot
  • Focus on your craft - let AI handle the paperwork
