Call script: inviting past customers of a window cleaning firm back for spring

Scenario 1: a past customer answers

Opening. "Hi, is this Mark? It's Anna from Clearview Window Care. We cleaned your windows last April. Have you got a minute?"

  • Yes → go to The reason for the call.
  • "Not now" → "Of course. When is better, today after five or tomorrow morning?" Note the time and end the call politely.
  • "Who?" → "Clearview, the window cleaners. We did your house on Elm Road last spring." Then The reason for the call.

The reason for the call. "We're planning the spring rounds on your street for the week of April 14. Past customers get first pick of the days. Would you like us to book you in?"

AnswerWhat to say next
"Yes""Great. Is it the same as last time, outside only, or inside too?" → Booking
"How much is it?""Last time it was the outside of a two-storey house. That's $120 this season." → Booking
"We're not sure yet""No problem. I can hold a day for you until Friday with nothing to pay. Shall I?"
"We use someone else now"Go to objection 7.

4. "It's too expensive." "I understand. Most customers on your street book outside only, and that keeps it at $120. If you book with a neighbour on the same day, you both get $15 off. Would that help?"

7. "We found someone cheaper." "That's fair, thanks for telling me. If anything changes, we're still doing your street on April 14. Can I send you a text with our number, just in case?"

11. "Call me in the summer." "Sure. Shall I put you down for a call in the first week of June? The summer rounds book up fast."

Voicemail

"Hi Mark, it's Anna from Clearview Window Care. We're cleaning on your street the week of April 14, and past customers get first pick of the days. Call or text us back on this number. Thanks!"

The client and all details are made up.

About this service

A property management phone line hears everything from a dripping tap to water coming through the ceiling, and the caller needs to know quickly what happens next. This script gives your dispatchers and office staff a clear routine: greeting, address and flat, what is wrong, how urgent it is by your own rules, what the tenant should do now and when someone will come. It also covers rent and service charge questions, noise and neighbour complaints and angry repeat callers. Tricky moments like 'nobody came last time' or 'I'm not paying until it's fixed' get calm, firm replies. Response times, fees and procedures come only from your brief. You get a Word and PDF script. We write it only: we never take calls or send contractors. Emergency steps follow exactly what you give us. Tenancy rules differ by country, so check the script against yours.

What is included

What we need from you

The buildings you manage (apartment blocks, rentals, offices), how repair requests are logged and numbered, your urgency levels and response times, the exact steps for emergencies and the numbers to give, rent and service charge rules, how complaints are handled, the calls you get most, and the language and tone. You may attach your procedures, a tenant handbook or a current script as Word or PDF files or screenshots, up to 3 files. Please do not send tenants' personal data.

We will ask you:

  • What do you manage?
  • Which calls come in most?
  • What are your response times?
  • What should tenants do in an emergency?

Questions and answers

Will you take tenant calls for us?

No. We write the script; your staff take the calls.

Who decides what counts as an emergency?

You do. We write the urgency branches and safety steps exactly from your procedures and the numbers you give, and never add our own technical or safety advice.

Can it cover tenants who refuse to pay?

Yes: calm replies that explain your rules and the next step. The script gives no legal advice; check payment and debt rules where you work.

Can the script be used for a 24-hour line?

Yes. Tell us how night calls differ, and we add the branches for out-of-hours requests.
