From missed calls and after-hours lead capture to customer trust and staff burnout, you'll hear what's actually working inside pet resorts right now — and where owners are getting it completely wrong.This isn't a “replace your staff with robots” conversation. It's a practical look at how smart operators are using AI to support their teams, improve response times, and create a better customer experience without sacrificing hospitality.

In this episode of The Pest Control Marketing Domination Podcast, Casey Lewis talks through his real-world experience setting up AI receptionists for pest control companies inside HighLevel.AI receptionists are not one-size-fits-all. A pest control company may need different receptionist setups for missed calls, after-hours calls, weekend calls, termite inspection campaigns, Google Ads funnels, new customer sales calls, existing customer support, and seasonal promotions.Casey breaks down the different types of AI receptionists pest control companies can use, how they should be structured, and why the workflow behind the receptionist is just as important as the AI itself. From capturing missed leads to supporting free termite inspection campaigns, AI receptionists can help pest control companies protect their marketing investment and improve speed-to-lead.If your pest control company is spending money on Google Ads, Local Services Ads, SEO, direct mail, or other lead generation, this episode explains why your call-handling system needs to be just as strong as your marketing.To learn more about Rhino Pest Control Marketing, visit:Website: RhinoPestControlMarketing.comEmail: casey@rhinopros.comPhone: (925) 464-8383Search The Pest Control Marketing Domination Podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, and Facebook.

Andy Alsop didn't start The Receptionist—he bought a small iPad-based visitor management app in 2013 for $250K and turned it into a real SaaS business. What began as a simple front-desk check-in tool evolved into a full visitor management system used across offices, schools, and manufacturing sites. Over a decade, Andy grew the company to 5,500 customers across 8,000 locations and more than $7M in ARR with just 30 employees. He stayed mostly bootstrapped, focused on steady growth, strong customer retention, and a unique "employee supremacy" culture that emphasized trust, transparency, and long-term loyalty. At an inflection point—needing more capital to keep up with a maturing market—Andy chose to sell rather than raise growth equity. The company was acquired by Sign In, a growth-equity-backed platform consolidating the category. In this episode, Andy shares how he evaluated buyers, avoided common exit traps, and built a company worth acquiring without chasing VC growth.  Key Takeaways Simple Product, Deep System: What looks like a basic iPad app becomes complex, sticky infrastructure with integrations, compliance, and workflow depth. Bootstrap Leverage: Growing with customer revenue forced discipline, creating a profitable, efficient business attractive to strategic buyers. Employee Supremacy Works: Trust, transparency, and benefits (like every-other-Friday off) drove retention, performance, and long-term value creation. Clean Books Matter: Meticulous financial discipline prevented retrading risk and made due diligence smoother and more favorable. Exit Optionality Wins: Not needing to sell created leverage—allowing Andy to choose the right buyer instead of taking the only offer. Quote from Andy Alsop, CEO of The Receptionist "I sold 100 % of the company. It was a full acquisition. I wasn't even looking for, and this is something that my brother in tech always said: Don't build a company to sell it, build a great company and somebody will want to come along and buy it. And I think that's exactly the way it played out. We didn't go and look for the acquisition. We were pursued by Sign In and that's what happened.  "Just build a great company and somebody will want to come along and buy it. Because I didn't want to just sell it. I mean, we're profitable. We're growing. We have very low churn. Great employees. We're doing great in the marketplace, I didn't really have to sell."

What's up, guys — it's your Knuckleheads crew keeping it raw and ridiculous. We ramble about our merch launch, the weird-ass pricing on Fourth Wall, and why tank tops cost almost as much as tees. Then we spiral into custard vs. pudding, nonstop pudding confessions, and our unfiltered thoughts on orange juice, bagels, and breakfast crimes. Things get filthy in the best way as we trade subway horror stories, who eats fallen cookies, and receptionists-from-hell anecdotes (spoiler: some people are wild). Oh, and of course we close with Florida Man doing Florida Man things. Tune in for dumb laughs, gross debates, and that familiar chaotic friendship energy. Check Out Lahna Turners website!

What happens when someone finally works up the nerve to call your practice? Someone who's been sitting with something heavy for weeks. Maybe months. Who talked themselves out of reaching out over and over again. Who finally said, "Okay, I need help," and picked up the phone.  That moment is everything. And what your practice does in the next few minutes (or hours) determines whether that person becomes your client or ends up on someone else's intake form. In this episode, Uriah shares a story that kind of changed how he thinks about all of this (a personal one, from the other side of the phone) and then breaks down a framework that completely reframes intake. Not as an admin problem. As a care problem. This is the AI Receptionist Blueprint.

This week on Veterinary Viewfinder, Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, MPA, RVT, focus on Veterinary Receptionist Week (April 19–25, 2026) and the people who hold the entire clinic together from the front desk. They break down what veterinary receptionists actually do day to day, from triaging calls and managing the schedule to handling emotional clients and keeping patient flow on track. It's a role that's often underestimated, but as they point out, even the best clinical team struggles if the front desk isn't supported. The conversation goes beyond recognition and into what real appreciation looks like. They share simple, practical ways to make it meaningful, like handwritten notes, personal recognition, and taking pressure off the phones during the workday. They also touch on training, professional development, and why the human side of this role won't be replaced anytime soon, even as technology evolves. If you work in a clinic, this episode is a reminder to slow down, notice the work happening up front, and use this week as a chance to reset how your team shows appreciation. www.veterinaryreceptionistweek.com #VeterinaryReceptionistWeek #VetMed #VetTeam #VeterinaryReceptionist #ClinicCulture

This week on the Bit Improv Comedy Network, Billy and Gail kick things off with Mayor Joe of Farmington, Michigan, whose generosity and good humor are on full display as he shares the city's history, its Quaker roots, its famously welcoming small-town vibe, its abundance of coffee houses, and the distinctive character that makes Farmington feel like its own little world — before graciously allowing the BIT Crew to do what they do best: lovingly satirize it all. From there, things spiral beautifully into a full-on podcast-town fever dream, where civic pride, local personalities, and unchecked microphone access turn community spirit into pure comic chaos. Charming at first. Then increasingly not normal. Apologies The BIT Comedy Network apologizes to the residents of Farmington, Mayor Joe, Farmington coffee houses, Quakers, local historians, the Warner family, ghost hunters, tax preparers, lawyers, accountants, tarot readers, notaries public, public safety professionals, podcast producers, silent coffee shop patrons, anti-outsider committees, front porch enthusiasts, NASA, astronauts, and anyone who expected this episode to remain a normal civic interview.

#840 What if every missed call from a potential customer could be answered — automatically, intelligently, and for free? In Part 1 of this two-part episode, host Brien Gearin sits down with Laurent Cohen, founder of GetOblic, a voice-first AI platform designed to help small and local businesses never miss a lead. Laurent shares his origin story — from growing up in France to becoming a serial digital entrepreneur in America — and explains how a single phone call with an AI agent sparked the idea for GetOblic. The two dive into what voice AI actually is, how it works for both businesses and consumers, and why Laurent chose to bootstrap rather than seek outside funding. Laurent also breaks down the platform's unique "crowd training" model, how businesses can test drive the AI before spending a dime, and why he believes the biggest mistake AI entrepreneurs make is trying to compete with the big players instead of building on top of them! What we discuss with Laurent: + What is voice AI? + Bootstrapping vs. VC funding + Building trust with small businesses + The "crowd training" data model + Why small/local businesses are the target market + Test driving AI before subscribing + Competing with vs. building on top of AI giants + From AI company to data company + The 96% untapped market opportunity + Voice AI as a 24/7 lead generator Thank you, Laurent!

#841 The robots are here — but should they tell you they're robots? In Part 2 of this two-part episode, Brien and Laurent dive deeper into the mechanics and vision behind GetOblic. Laurent explains how the platform enriches business profiles using local LLMs and AI agents, and shares a fascinating case study on AI-driven upsells for hair salons. The conversation covers how GetOblic makes money — a simple $59/month subscription with unlimited calls — and the unexpected SEO boost that came from voice AI increasing user time-on-page. Laurent also opens up about the company's ethical stance on AI transparency, why they chose not to offer voice cloning, and his advice for businesses looking to gradually adopt AI agents without losing the human touch. With 2,000 customers and 250,000 claimed listings, GetOblic is gaining serious traction — and Laurent's parting wisdom on building trust first, technology second, is something every entrepreneur can take to heart!

Are AI receptionists here to take over your practice? How do they actually work, and what can they do—or not do—for your team? Could they make life easier for staff without replacing humans, or are they just a gimmick? In this episode, award-winning dentist and marketing expert Dr. Grant McAree joins Jaz to break down AI receptionists. Together, they explore what an AI receptionist really is, how it integrates with your practice, and the compliance and legal considerations every dentist should know. They also dive into the bigger picture—who these systems are really for, how patient interactions are managed, and a live demonstration of an AI receptionist in action that shows exactly what it can—and can't—do for your practice. https://youtu.be/Jx-0jOZG3lE Watch IC070 on YouTube Key Takeaways: AI receptionists are evolving to provide better patient interactions. Data insights reveal significant gaps in patient communication. The technology is designed to assist, not replace human receptionists. AI can help streamline appointment bookings and patient inquiries. Understanding patient needs is crucial for effective AI responses. Customization of AI responses is essential for different practices. The future of AI in dentistry looks promising but requires careful implementation. AI should not be seen as a replacement but as a tool for efficiency. Compliance and data storage are critical in patient interactions. The integration of AI can lead to improved patient experiences.

Isabelle Blaser  - Vet Receptionists On the State of the Veterinary Field: "I think it's just a nationwide thing. That vet hospitals are understaffed and overworked and they always need an extra set of hands." Pets are like family to a great majority of our population.  As living creatures, these pets need help.  Sometimes just a checkup, and sometimes something deeper, such as surgery.  Regardless of what they need, they are the animals we care about and so we want them to be taken care of. The world of veterinary medicine is a challenging one.  The volume of pets is increasing, the volume of veterinarians and technicians is decreasing.  The workload is simply too much for most people to bear for anything considered long term. But does it have to be this way? Isabelle Blaser is the incredible manager at Vet Receptionists, a company designed to lift much of the burden found in most veterinary clinics, by taking calls and helping reduce the workload of the overworked staff.  By doing this, Isabelle and her crew at Vet Receptionists are able to help their client's employees keep doing all they need to do, keep them sane and keep them happily employed. In this episode Isabelle shares the problems facing most veterinary clinics and the solutions that can turn a struggling practice into a place of happiness.  Though most veterinary clinics may not be struggling financially, mentally and culturally they are often a house of cards.  Many times without the doctors or clinic owners even knowing of the issues or demands being made on their team. Listen as Isabelle explains the need for improved customer service to allow your clients to be treated better, as well as your employees. Enjoy!

James Kademan [00:00:08]: That's cool. That's cool. Why is that important? Isabelle Blaser [00:00:11]: It's important because I'm sure you've been to a veterinary hospital sometime recently. The staff is more than you'd like to admit. I think it's just a nationwide thing that vet hospitals are understaffed and overworked and they always need an extra set of hands. That way they can take care of the patients that are in the hospital. Isabelle Blaser [00:00:29]: So that's where we come in.

DON'T MISS the dental event of the year, November 7-8. Nowak Dental Supplies (https://www.nowakdental.com/) is hosing NOLA Lab Fest (https://www.nolalabfest.com/) in New Orleans, Louisiana. Head over to nolalabfest.com to see the line up and to register. A HUGE thanks to Aidite North America (https://www.aidite.com/) for hosting the podcast at their booth. Come find us and be on the podcast! This week, Elvis and Barb sit down with Lori Margiotta, the founder of Bookkeeper for Dentists (https://bookkeeperfordentists.com/), to talk about how labs and dental offices can grow together by focusing on one key number: case acceptance. Lori shares her journey from high school “recall girl” to practice manager, lab sales rep, and now consultant helping dental offices understand their business metrics. She breaks down how labs can help their clients track simple data like lab expenses and unbooked treatment to reveal hidden opportunities. With decades in the dental industry, Lori shows that when dentists increase their case acceptance, everyone wins — including the labs. From real-world examples to actionable advice (and a few laughs along the way), this episode is all about bridging the gap between the front desk and the bench.

This week is all about I May Be A Guild Receptionist, But I'll Solo Any Boss To Clock Out On Time with just Jack. Now the story is something that is pretty solid and it had all the makings of a great show. The story was easy enough to follow and it did focus on what the title exactly is and it really highlights her struggles. But also at the same time there is no real depth to some of it and honestly you are left with far more questions then what you are given answers too leaving you with a open ending. Even with that it is still worth a watch.Next Week's Pick: "Eighty-Six - 86" Have you had the chance to watch I May Be A Guild Receptionist, But I'll Solo Any Boss To Clock Out On Time or any of our previous selections?
