  • Contractor Cents - Episode 390 - After Hours, No Headaches: AI Agents for Contractors
    Sep 8 2025

    How many of you REALLY like your answering service? If you do, I’d love an introduction. In my experience, most contractors put up with bad answering services because they can’t find a good one. What if AI could take over your after hours calls? And, where do you find this AI after hours agent? My guest, Stephen Price, the owner of Price Telecom, gives you the answers and how to do this. In terms of full disclosure, Stephen is my IT and phone guy…he has taken care of our IT and phone needs for more than 15 years…through all the tech updates and progressions…and done a phenomenal job with them!
