What this means in Omaha
Industry studies put missed calls at roughly 1 in 4 — that one isn't our number, so hold it loosely. Ours start where the phone stops, and they say the website isn't catching what the phone drops: for 84% of Omaha businesses, an after-hours customer has no path at all — no one answering the phone, nothing answering the site, no way to book. That customer doesn't wait until morning; they go down the search results until something responds. The practical takeaway for a Omaha owner: being answerable after 5pm is currently a competitive edge 84% of your market doesn't have.
