Third Ring

One person, one problem, no call centre.

Third Ring exists because a missed call is the cheapest job a tradesman ever loses, and because everything built to fix it was built for offices.

A missed call isn’t a missed call.

It’s somebody with a leak, standing in their kitchen with their phone in their hand, going down a list. You were the first name. By the time you climb down the ladder and ring back you’re the fourth, and they’ve already booked the second.

Hardly anyone leaves a voicemail. Six in a hundred, on the latest poll. The other ninety-four move on, and you never know they existed.

The window that matters is the first minute. Everything Third Ring does is built to land inside it.

The things it won’t do.

Most of what makes this trustworthy is what it refuses to be.

Sell your leads

Your customers’ details go to you and nowhere else. Not to a partner, not to a directory, not onto a mailing list.

Take your number

No porting, no new line, no routing your customers through somebody else’s switchboard. One code gives it all back.

Pretend to be human

The voice line names itself in the first sentence, every call, and there’s no setting to turn that off.

Tie you in

No contract, no notice period, no minimum term. Text me to stop, dial one code, and your phone is back how it was.

Charge you per lead

One price a month, whatever comes in. A good week costs you exactly what a quiet one does.

Sell it if it won’t pay

If you miss two calls a week and they’re mostly your mum, it isn’t worth £79. The calculator says so, and so will I.

Trades whose phone is the business.

Sole traders and small firms, where the person on the tools is also the person answering the phone. Urgent work first, because that’s where a missed call costs the most.

Plumbers

Leaks don’t wait for a callback.

Gas and heating

No heat means they ring the next name.

Electricians

Power’s off and the phone’s in their hand.

Roofers

Up a ladder all day, by definition.

Locksmiths

Locked out means right now.

Drainage

Nobody books a blocked drain for next week.

Croydon and south London, for now.

Deliberately local while it’s new, because I want to be able to drive to you if something goes wrong.

Right now

Within a drive of me, so I can be at your door the same day if something needs sorting in person.

Anywhere in the UK

The product doesn’t care where you are. It runs on your existing mobile network, Penzance to Peterhead.

Why the limit

Setup is done with you on the phone and tested properly, and one person can only do so many of those a week without cutting corners.

Outside the patch? Ring me anyway.

The product works anywhere. If you’re half an hour up the road I’d still rather set it up properly than turn the work away.
