Turn on missed-call recovery

Automatically text callers you missed so the lead is not lost.

When a caller does not get through or does not book, missed-call recovery texts them a short while later with an easy way back to you. You can let Catchdesk send it automatically, or have it suggest the text for you to send yourself.

Skipped when Catchdesk already handled the call or the caller has opted out.

  1. 1

    Open Automations settings

    In the web dashboard, go to Settings, then Automations.

  2. 2

    Turn on Missed-call recovery

    Set it to Automatic so Catchdesk texts missed callers for you. Manual instead suggests the text in Next action for you to send.

  3. 3

    Set the delay

    Choose how many minutes to wait after the missed call before the text sends.

Notes

  • Catchdesk only texts when it makes sense, so a caller it already booked or helped is not messaged.
  • A short delay feels human. Texting the instant a call drops can feel automated.
