Cold Snap Checklist for Austin Trades
When the first cold night hits Austin, people start searching for heating repair and frozen pipe help. The shops that are ready get the call. Here's a short checklist you can knock out in an afternoon.
1. Check your Google hours
If you offer after-hours or emergency service, make sure your Google Business Profile says so. Set special hours for holidays too.
2. Add a recent job photo
Post a photo of a real heating or pipe job to your Google profile. Fresh, real photos show people you're active and local.
3. Text back every missed call
When you're on a job, you can't always pick up. Callers often try the next number if nobody answers. A quick automatic text ("Sorry we missed you, what do you need help with?") keeps the conversation going.
4. Answer your recent reviews
A short, friendly reply to every review shows new customers you care. Thank people by name and mention the job when you can.
5. Ask for reviews after every job
The best time to ask is right after the work is done. Send a text with your direct review link, or show a QR code on your phone.
