The True Cost of Missed Calls
Every unanswered call is a potential customer choosing your competitor instead. For service businesses, the math is brutal: a single missed call can represent hundreds or thousands of dollars in lost revenue.
The problem compounds fast. Invoca's platform data puts the unanswered rate for home services businesses at 27%, and older mystery-call studies measured 62% across small businesses, while 82% of consumers say an unanswered call sends them straight to a competitor (CallRail, 2025). Over a month, that adds up to tens of thousands in lost revenue for most businesses.
