Business Assistant for carpentry workshops

An employee for your carpentry workshop. It takes requests while you are at the machine.

Requests with photo and measurements, site visits, references: done.

Go to the Index Check

Index Group AG sets up the Business Assistant for carpentry workshops: an employee that works on your website, around the clock. You run it by WhatsApp.

Where we work: Zurich and all of German-speaking Switzerland

You know this

  • In the workshop you do not hear the phone, and that is how it should be.
  • But in the evening you sit with five requests, and three have no measurements.
  • And the website still shows the kitchen from three years ago.

What the Business Assistant does for you

Complete requests

It asks for what you need for a first estimate: photo, rough measurements, wood, preferred date. You get the request complete.

Book a site visit

Where a visit is needed, it books one in a free slot in your calendar.

References by photo

You send a photo of the finished built-in cupboard with one sentence, and it appears under references on your website.

The matching demo

We do not have a demo for carpentry yet. The closest is Garage Seeblick: send a photo, request recorded, appointment booked.
