How it works

  1. Today

    Pay $99 and leave your number

    Check out through Stripe. Leave your phone number and a good time to call.

  2. Within 1 business day

    I email, then call you to set a time

    I email first so you know the call is from me. Then we talk for 20 to 30 minutes. I ask how you handle calls, scheduling, estimates, invoices and reviews, and where your time goes.

  3. Within 2 business days of the call

    You get a written report by email

    It comes as a PDF and lists 3 to 5 fixes, using AI or simple automation, that could save time or win more jobs. Each one has the problem, the fix, the rough time saved, and the cost to do it yourself or have it built. At least one is a fix you can do yourself for free.

  4. Only if you want it

    Get help building a fix

    Want a fix built? I'll quote it. Your $99 counts toward a build you start within 60 days. There's no obligation.

What a recommendation looks like

Here are two fixes from a sample report for Example HVAC Co., a made-up 12-person HVAC company. Your report will be about your business.

Sample. Made-up company.

After-hours calls go to voicemail

The problem
Calls after 5 p.m. and on weekends go to voicemail. Some callers may hang up and call the next company. The office spends Monday morning calling the rest back.
The fix
An answering service or AI receptionist picks up after hours. It takes the caller's name, address and problem, then books a time for the office to call back. The caller gets an email that confirms the callback time.
Time saved
About 2 to 4 hours a week, mostly Monday callbacks. This is an estimate.
Cost
Do it yourselfPick a service and set up the email. Plan on half a day, plus the service's monthly fee.
Have it builtQuoted if you ask. Your $99 counts toward it.

Estimate follow-up depends on memory Free to do yourself

The problem
Estimates go out by email. When a customer goes quiet, someone writes a follow-up from scratch, if they remember.
The fix
Write two saved replies in the email or job software you already use, such as Gmail or Outlook templates. Send the first one 2 days after the estimate and the second a week later. A calendar reminder tells you when.
Time saved
About 1 to 2 hours a week, and each estimate gets a second follow-up. This is an estimate.
Cost
Do it yourselfFree. About an hour to write and save both replies.
Have it builtNot needed for this one.

This is a new service

I just started offering this audit. There are no past clients or reviews to show you yet.

I'm Chris Kipp. I run Topline Ventures LLC in Appleton, Wisconsin. I do every call myself, and I review every report before it goes out.

Questions before you book

Who is this for?

Owners of home service businesses with roughly 5 to 50 people. That means HVAC, plumbing, roofing, remodeling, electrical and similar trades. You don't need to know anything about AI.

What if we don't use much software?

That's fine. I'll start from what you use today, even if it's a phone, a paper calendar and email. At least one idea in your report will work with what you already have, for free.

Is the call recorded?

No. I take notes while we talk.

What happens to my info?

Stripe handles your payment. I use your number and our call notes only to set up the call, write your report and answer questions about it. I use AI tools to help draft the report, and I check every line. I never sell or share your info.

What if the report isn't useful to me?

Yes. If your report has no idea you'd use, email chris@gettoplinehq.com within 14 days of getting it and I'll refund the $99. A refunded audit doesn't count toward a build.
