Route callers with a press-one-for menu you build

Press-1 call routing.

Part of communications & voice in Gaffer, which replaces personal WhatsApp, a mobile number and a lot of interruptions.

Communications & Voice in Gaffer
The area it belongs to

Customers kept informed without anyone pressing send.

Two-way SMS and email from one inbox, automatic updates at every job milestone, and an optional VoIP line with an AI receptionist that answers when you are on a roof.

The “what time are you coming?” calls stop, because the customer already knows.

IVR menus is one of the 14 things in communications & voice. See the rest →

What you get
  • Build a press-one-for menu with your own prompts and your own options
  • Each option forwards to a number, rings an extension, or drops to voicemail
  • Submenus, so a second level of choices is a branch rather than a separate menu
  • One menu is live at a time, and switching over is a single change
  • Preview exactly what a caller will hear before you put it on the number
Where it fits

Step 06 of the job: paid

The customer pays by card, Apple Pay or Direct Debit. Xero or QuickBooks are updated. A review request goes out. And eleven months later, the annual service reminder books the next job.

Communications & Voice is where IVR menus sits, and that is the step it shows up in most. The rest of the job — quoting, scheduling, certificates, invoicing and payment — runs in the same system, on the same record. See the whole job →

What is IVR menus for?

Build a press-one-for menu with your own prompts and your own options Each option forwards to a number, rings an extension, or drops to voicemail

Do messages come from my own number?

Texts go from a dedicated business number so replies come back into Gaffer rather than to somebody’s personal mobile. Email is sent and received through your own mailbox.

Is there a limit on how much I can send?

Fair-use allowances cover normal trade volumes, and anything beyond that is passed through at cost rather than marked up. You will be told before it matters, not billed afterwards.

Which plan is it on?

Every paid plan. IVR menus is included for unlimited users at no extra cost — the monthly, annual and lifetime plans differ only in how you pay.
