How to Forward Verizon Business Missed Calls to LeadTruffle for Instant Lead Capture

Step-by-step guide to redirect missed Verizon Business calls to LeadTruffle's AI for automatic lead qualification via SMS.

Turn Missed Calls Into Qualified Leads (Without Lifting a Finger)

Home service businesses lose $2.3 million annually in missed revenue from unanswered calls*. With LeadTruffle, every missed Verizon Business call becomes an AI-powered SMS conversation that qualifies leads while you’re on another job. Here’s how to set it up in 5 minutes:

What You’ll Need:

Step 1: Get Your LeadTruffle Forwarding Number

  1. Log into LeadTruffle
  2. Go to Missed Calls → Phone Settings
  3. Copy your unique forwarding number (e.g., 555-123-4567)

Step 2: Set Up Verizon Call Forwarding

  1. Log into your Verizon Business account
  2. Navigate to Voice Settings → Call Forwarding
  3. Under “Forward When Unanswered”:
    • Toggle to Enabled
    • Enter your LeadTruffle number
    • Set rings before forwarding (3-4 recommended)
  4. Save changes

Step 3: Record Your Voicemail Greeting in LeadTruffle

  1. In LeadTruffle, go to Missed Calls → Greeting
  2. Record or upload a short message:
    • “Hi, you’ve reached [Your Company]. We’re busy helping other customers. Leave your name and reason for calling, and we’ll text you right back!”

What Happens Next:

  • A lead calls your Verizon number and gets no answer
  • Verizon forwards the call to LeadTruffle
  • LeadTruffle plays your greeting and transcribes their voicemail
  • AI texts the lead within 60 seconds:

“Hi [Name], this is [Your Company] - sorry we missed you! You mentioned [voicemail summary]. Want to chat over text? Reply YES.”

Why This Works for Home Service Pros:

  • Compliance handled automatically: Opt-in language pre-built
  • No coding required: 3-click setup
  • Works 24/7: Qualify leads at 2 AM or during busy hours
  • Data goes where you need it: Conversations sync to your CRM via Zapier or webhooks

Real-World Example:

A HVAC company in Phoenix forwarded Verizon calls to LeadTruffle and saw:

  • 41% more leads after hours
  • 22% shorter sales cycles (AI collected addresses/service details upfront)
  • 8 hours/week saved on phone tag
