You're on a job site when high-ticket lighting estimate requests come in. Anchor Co AI's AI receptionist answers the calls you miss so landscape lighting and holiday install leads stay warm until you can respond — never cold.
Holiday lighting season books up fast — homeowners call around to several companies and go with whoever responds first. A missed call in October is a booked competitor in November.
Why outdoor lighting companies lose high-ticket installs
Homeowners call about outdoor lighting installs during the day — exactly when you're running wire or mounting fixtures. A missed call on a high-ticket landscape lighting job is a real revenue loss.
From mid-October to Thanksgiving, homeowners call around to several companies and book the first one that responds. Miss a call during that window and you've lost a seasonal install.
A homeowner who calls on Tuesday and doesn't hear back until Friday has already mentally moved on. An AI receptionist that answers and takes their number keeps the lead alive until you can call back with a real estimate.
Someone drives past your finished install at 9pm and Googles your company. They call, get voicemail, and forget by morning. An AI receptionist that picks up at 9pm keeps that warm referral from going cold overnight.
How it works
Can't answer. The homeowner requesting a landscape lighting estimate is about to call the next company on Google.
On the Front Office plan, you forward your calls to the AI receptionist and keep your number. It says it is an AI, takes the caller's name, number and what they need, and emails you a summary after the call.
Their property type, project scope, and timeline create a ready-to-quote lead. Holiday lighting inquiries are flagged by season. You see it when you wrap the current install.
Front Office plans
Every plan is $297 to set up, then monthly. Month-to-month, cancel any time. Buy online, fill out one form, and see your preview within 5 business days. No sales call.
What the receptionist doesn't do: it doesn't book appointments, quote prices or connect to calendars or CRMs. It takes the caller's details so you can call back.
Cancelling and refunds:cancel any time and you aren't billed again; there are no partial-month refunds. The setup fee is returned only if you cancel before you submit the intake form. If we don't deliver what the terms describe, tell us within 30 days of the charge and we fix it, or refund the affected charge if we can't. Read the refund policy and plan terms before you buy.

Yes. We train the chatbot on your full service menu — low-voltage landscape lighting, permanent holiday lighting, tree uplighting, pathway lighting, security lighting, and any seasonal packages you offer. It can answer questions and collect estimate details for any of them.
Yes. We configure seasonal flows so the chatbot leads with holiday lighting urgency from October through December, then shifts to permanent landscape installs the rest of the year. We handle setup as part of onboarding.
The chatbot can share your typical price ranges (e.g., 'Landscape lighting installs typically start around $2,500 depending on property size') and then collect their details to schedule a free estimate. This pre-qualifies the lead so your estimate appointments are with serious buyers.

No slideshow, no actor. A screen recording of our own assistant handling the two questions every owner asks: what happens to the 9pm call I miss, and will it invent things about my business.
Real answers from our live demo bot — unscripted, recorded on this site.
Visitor: I run an HVAC company. A customer calls at 9pm and I can't pick up — what happens?
Anchor Co AI: Right now? They hit voicemail and you've lost them to whoever picks up first. With our chatbot, they hit your website at 9pm, ask “Do you do emergency service?” or “Are you licensed in my county?” — and get an instant answer. The bot captures their name, number, and address. You wake up to a lead instead of a missed call. That's the whole thing: your customers get answers 24/7, you only deal with the calls that actually need you, and you're not losing jobs to competitors who answer faster. Since you're in HVAC, the bot can handle all the common questions — licensing by county, service area, whether you do emergency calls, minimum job size, how long estimates take. You train it on your website in about 10 minutes, and it goes live in an afternoon. Want to try it? You can start free at anchorcoai.com/signup — no credit card required. Test it on your actual website for 14 days and see if it captures leads you would've missed.
Visitor: Will it make stuff up about my business?
Anchor Co AI: No. The bot only answers from what you've given it — your website content, your FAQs, pricing, service areas, whatever you add. If a question falls outside that (something the bot doesn't know), it's honest about it. Instead of guessing, it says “I don't have that info” and asks for their name and contact details so you can follow up personally. It won't make up licensing claims, pricing, or service details. That's the safeguard. Your bot is only as smart as the information you feed it — which means you stay in control of what it says about your business. Honestly the easiest way to see if it works for your business is to just try it. Free plan, no card. anchorcoai.com/signup
