We tried to hire you.

Before we ever meet, we become a customer. We call your line. We text your listing. We search for you the way a stranger with a problem would. And we try to book a job. Then we sit down for thirty minutes and show you exactly what happened.

30 minutes
That is the whole ask.
With a founder
Richard or Jacob. Never a sales rep.
Yours to keep
Whether you hire us or not.
Before the call

Four attempts to give you money.

This is not a report we generate from public data. We do the four things a customer does, on a normal working day, and we write down what happens. It takes us a few hours. It takes you nothing.

We try to actually book the job.
All the way to the end. We find out where it stops.
Could we book?
Where it broke
We fill the right-hand column in with whatever actually happens. Not a projection. Not a benchmark. Your business, on a normal Tuesday.

We do not editorialize it. We just play you the tape.

The thirty minutes

The work is already done when you sit down.

Half an hour is not enough time to study a business. It is exactly enough time to hand one back to its owner. Here is where every minute goes.

0 – 8 min
We play you the tape.

What happened when we called, texted, searched, and tried to book. Rings, replies, ranking, and the exact point where a real customer would have given up.

8 – 18 min
We put a number on it.

Your call volume, your average job, your close rate. We do the arithmetic live, in front of you. Most owners have never seen the gap costed out.

18 – 26 min
We show you it fixed.

The same four tests, with someone actually minding the front. What changes, what it takes, and what it costs.

26 – 30 min
We give you a straight answer.

Whether this is a fit. If the honest answer is that you do not need us, you will hear that, and you still keep everything above.

You are not booking a demo.You are booking the readout of work we have already finished. Nothing to prepare, nothing to send us, no login to hand over.
Who is on the call

There are two of us. You get one of us.

StayBookt is two people. Whichever one you get, you are talking to a founder who did the mystery shop himself and can be held to every word of it.

Richard Roos, co-founder of StayBookt
Richard Roos
Operations, growth, and finance

Two decades running the front of a service business at scale, and a CPA. He will be the one costing out the gap.

Jacob Charendoff, co-founder of StayBookt
Jacob Charendoff
Brand, product, and growth

A decade standing next to owners across half a dozen industries. He will be the one who tried to hire you.

No handoff to a rep. No “let me get you with someone.” More about us →
