How to resell Second ShiftPage 1 of 12

Second Shift: The AI front desk you resell to home-service businesses

Second Shift is an AI front desk for home-service businesses: HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roofing and the like. It answers the chat on a business's website from the site's own facts, books visits or passes them to a person, and offers every missed caller a text conversation. Marketing agencies that already serve those businesses resell it under their own brand, at their own price, and sell it with a demo built from the prospect's own website in about a minute.

This guide is for the agency. It says what you'd be reselling, how the demo sells it, what happens when a client goes live, and the rules the product never breaks. Prices are in the partner guide you get with your first demo.

Three kinds of people use it

  • Homeowners ask questions and book a visit in the chat on the business's website, or carry on by text after a call the business missed. A person can take over at any time.
  • Contractors, the business owner and staff, do two setup steps, then leads, booking requests and hand-offs arrive as texts. There is no app to learn.
  • Agencies build a demo from a prospect's website, turn it into a live client in one click, set the price and bill clients through their own Stripe.

How it reaches a homeowner

  1. You paste the website of a business you're pitching into your agency console, or email it to us.
  2. About a minute later you have a working demo built from it, free.
  3. The business signs with you and becomes your client. We set up Second Shift for it: its facts, its assistant number and the texting registration. You paste one line of code into its website, and the owner turns on call forwarding.
  4. Homeowners ask, book or text, and the owner can step in at any time.

Only you see the name Second Shift. Your client sees your brand; its customers see only your client's name.

The line of code is a short script, like the one Google Analytics uses, pasted once into the site's header. It works on WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, GoDaddy and most site builders.

Five promises

  • Answers only from confirmed facts. Never a guessed price or a made-up policy.
  • A person one tap away. The AI goes quiet the moment staff reply.
  • Month to month. The phone number stays the client's if they leave.
  • A locked price. Clients are billed through the agency's own Stripe.
  • Every lead summarized. Plus a monthly results report the agency can send.

Fewest taps by design: a homeowner books a job in about five taps plus their name and mobile number; an agency goes from a website to a demo in one click and from a demo to a live client in one more; a contractor has two setup steps and nothing new to learn after that.

What works today, and what comes with the pilot
