SwoopdStop letting painting leads go cold on a missed call
Up a ladder with a brush in your hand, you cannot grab the phone. Swoopd texts every missed call back in seconds, qualifies the job and books the quote so you keep the work.
You cannot answer mid roller stroke
Painting is a hands full, brush down then phone job. You are up a ladder cutting in, halfway through a roller wall, or taping up edges when the phone goes. You are not climbing down to answer it, and by the time you do the caller has moved on.
Most painting enquiries are people getting two or three quotes. The painter who replies first and looks switched on usually wins. If you go quiet for hours, you have already lost the job before you even saw it.
Swoopd fixes that. The moment you miss a call, it texts the caller back from your number, asks about the job and books a time to quote. It works alongside your existing mobile, so you come across as the painter who is on to it, even while you are halfway up a wall.
The painting jobs worth catching
Most painting enquiries are ready to book a quote on the spot:
- Interior repaints and feature walls
- Full exterior repaints
- New build and renovation painting
- Roof painting and treatments
- Fences, decks and weatherboards
- Plaster, prep and small touch up jobs
A full exterior repaint can run into the thousands. Even an interior job is a solid few days of work. Miss the call and you hand that straight to the next painter who picked up. Swoopd makes sure you stay in the running.
How Swoopd works for painters
A call comes in while you are on the tools, and within seconds the caller gets a text from your number. Swoopd asks what they want painted, the address and rough timing, then books a time for you to come and quote. The lead is captured and warm, ready for you when you climb down.
You see the whole conversation on your phone and can jump in any time. No new handset, no answering service, no scripts. Just a fast, friendly reply that keeps the customer keen.
Made for the way painters work
Swoopd runs quietly in the background while you paint. Whether you are up a ladder, masking up or loading the van, the lead is captured and waiting. You read it on a break or at the end of the day, not mid stroke.
It is easy to set up and uses the number you already have. Most painters are running it the same day.

Frequently asked questions
Most of my callers want a quote, can Swoopd book those?
Yes. Swoopd asks what the caller wants painted and the rough timing, then books a time for you to come and quote. The lead is warm and ready when you get to it, instead of going cold while you are up a ladder.
Does it use my current number?
Yes. Swoopd works alongside the mobile number you already use. Customers ring as normal, and when you miss the call it texts them back. To them it looks like you replied fast.
I am the painter who usually replies last, will this help?
That is exactly the problem it solves. Most painting jobs go to whoever replies first and looks switched on. Swoopd replies in seconds for you, so you are in the running before your competitors even call back.
