Customer follow-ups

# Never forget to get back to a customer.

You’re on a job, three people call, and someone texts a question. By tonight, one of them is forgotten. GBPN keeps everyone who is waiting on you in one list, so the follow-up happens even on your busiest day.

One list

## Everyone who needs you, in one place.

New texts, missed calls, and voicemails land in **Needs**. They stay there until you reply, snooze, or mark them done. Opening a message doesn’t make it vanish.

Once you reply, the conversation moves to **Waiting** until the customer answers. The badge on your app icon shows exactly how many people still need you.

Marcus Bell left a voicemail:

Hi, this is Marcus. Can you call me back about a quote for a move-out clean?

Not right now

## Snooze it with a note, and it comes back.

Waiting on a customer’s answer? Snooze the conversation until the day you want to follow up, and write down what to do next.

At that time it returns to Needs for everyone on your team, with your note attached. You get an alert, so the reminder can’t get lost.

Remember what was said

## Never ask “what did we talk about?” again.

After each recorded call, GBPN writes a short summary of what was discussed and what happens next. Read it before you call back, and you pick up right where you left off.

Keep the small stuff on the customer’s contact too, like gate codes or the dog’s name.

Callers aren’t left hanging

## Buy yourself time without losing the job.

### A text when you miss the call

A caller who can’t reach you gets a text right away, like “Sorry we missed you, we’ll call you back shortly.” They know you’re on it.

### Reminders that send themselves

Schedule a text for later, like a reminder the day before a job. If the customer replies first, it holds itself back.

## Follow-up questions

How does GBPN help me remember who to call back?

Every new text, missed call, and voicemail lands in one list called Needs. It stays there until someone on your team replies, snoozes it, or marks it done. The app badge on your phone shows how many are waiting.

What does snooze do?

Snooze hides a conversation until a time you pick, with a note about what to do next. At that time it comes back to Needs for everyone, with your note attached, and you get an alert.

Does opening a conversation clear it from the list?

No. Reading a conversation does not make it disappear. It stays in Needs until someone replies, snoozes it, or marks it done, so nothing slips just because you glanced at it.

Does this work for a team?

Yes. Everyone sees the same list, so when one person replies, the conversation moves out of Needs for the whole team. No one calls the same customer twice.

Do I need the app for this?

The list lives in the GBPN app on iPhone and Android, and in any web browser on your computer. Voicemails also come to your email as text.
