How Marlo works

From missed call to won job — without you stopping work.

1

An enquiry comes in

A call, a WhatsApp, a web form, a Google lead — from any channel, at any hour, even while you are on the tools.

2

Marlo answers in seconds

It replies straight away in your business name, answers the common questions, and captures the job details.

3

Everything lands in one place

Every enquiry, every customer, every quote — one simple inbox built for a trade business, not a corporate sales team.

4

You win the job

You follow up when it suits you, already ahead of the trades who never picked up.

Instant WhatsApp and website replies while the customer is still deciding who to call.

Web, WhatsApp, phone and Google leads gathered in a single place you actually check.

Quotes, done quicker

Snap a photo, pull your rate card, send a tidy PDF quote — without sitting at a desk.

Win more reviews

Marlo asks happy customers for a review at the right moment, and helps you reply to every one.

Never miss a renewal

Service and safety reminders (boiler service, gas safety) go out on time, automatically.

Reputation wins the next job

More five-star reviews, without the awkward asking.

72% of people trust reviews as much as a personal recommendation, and businesses that reply to reviews are linked to around 35% more revenue. Marlo asks the right customers at the right time, and helps you reply to every review — good or bad.

Questions trades ask us

I am on the tools all day — how would I answer anyway?

You would not have to. That is the whole point. Marlo answers and replies for you while you work, and hands you the job details to follow up when it suits.

Does it sound robotic to my customers?

No. Marlo speaks in plain English, in your business name, like a good office colleague — not a machine reading a script.

I only miss the odd call. Does it really matter?

It adds up. 79% of callers move on to the next listing within 30 minutes, and 85% will not leave a voicemail. A missed call is usually a lost job, not a callback.

Is it hard to set up?

No IT project. How quickly you are up and running depends on your setup, so the team confirms timings with you after a quick look at how you work today.
