IRA tax credit buyers, fall season surge calls, commercial spray foam bids — Orbit captures every one while you're in the attic. $96/month all-in. 24/7. Never lose a ready-to-buy IRA caller again.
IRA callers have money to spend and will call 3 competitors if you don't answer. Orbit answers in two rings — every time. SMS within 60 seconds of every call.
Each one costs you money every single week. Orbit solves all three for $96/month.
Callers researching the IRA federal insulation credit have already done the homework — they know about the $1,200 credit, they own the home, and they're ready to schedule. They will call three contractors in a row. The first to answer professionally wins the job. If you're in the attic when they call and they hit voicemail, you're not getting a callback — they already booked someone else.
Homeowners get their energy audits in late summer and call insulation contractors in September and October. That 8-week window determines whether you're booked solid through winter or scrambling for jobs in November. Call volume triples in those two months. Orbit answers every call during the surge without you adding a single person — every lead captured, every intake completed, SMS'd to you in real time.
Commercial spray foam bids on warehouses, cold storage, industrial buildings, and agricultural structures can be $50,000–$500,000 contracts. A project manager who calls to add you to a bid list and reaches voicemail removes you from the list before you even knew you were on it. Orbit answers, sounds professional, captures the full project scope, and flags it HIGH VALUE — so you call back knowing exactly what you're bidding.
Four steps. Takes 5 minutes to set up. Handles the fall surge from day one.
Two minutes to configure. Forward always, on busy, or after X rings. Orbit answers under 2 rings with your company name — not a generic service. IRA callers hear a professional answer on the first call, every time.
IRA credit inquiry? Orbit asks about home ownership, current insulation type, which areas they're upgrading, and whether they've gotten other quotes. Attic insulation call? Orbit captures attic size, access, current R-value if known, and timeline. Spray foam commercial bid? Orbit gets the building type, square footage, and contact info. Every call type gets the right intake — not a generic message.
IRA calls and commercial spray foam bids are flagged HIGH VALUE for immediate callback. Attic and residential calls are queued for your next available window. Energy audit follow-ups are flagged separately — you know those customers already have an audit report and are ready to book.
You already know the project scope, whether they're IRA-eligible, and their timeline before you dial. No re-asking, no back-and-forth. Call back with a ballpark and a calendar ready. IRA callers who are ready to book get a schedule slot in one call — not a two-callback process.
Orbit knows the right intake questions for each insulation call type — from IRA inquiries to commercial spray foam bids.
All information delivered via SMS within 60 seconds of the call ending.
The highest-intent leads in residential insulation. These callers have already decided to act — they just need the right contractor to answer. Orbit captures everything to confirm eligibility and schedule the estimate in one call.
Bread-and-butter residential. Orbit qualifies the job scope so you can give an accurate ballpark before the site visit.
Multi-area jobs that can be $3,000–$8,000+. Orbit captures the full scope so you arrive at the estimate with numbers already in mind.
$50K–$500K projects where a professional first call is mandatory. Orbit ensures you never miss a commercial bid inquiry.
Customers who already have an energy audit report are the warmest leads you get. They have the recommendations in writing — they just need to book the contractor. Orbit flags these separately so you know they're ready to schedule immediately.
The Inflation Reduction Act created up to $1,200 in federal tax credits for insulation upgrades. Call volume has been 200%+ above pre-IRA baseline since 2022 — and eligible homeowners are highly motivated to act before year-end.
The problem: IRA-motivated callers are the most decisive buyers you'll encounter. They've done the research, they know about the credit, they own the home, and they're ready to schedule. But they will not leave a voicemail and wait 4 hours. They call the next contractor in 90 seconds.
The fix: Orbit answers every IRA credit call in under 2 rings, qualifies eligibility, captures the full scope, and SMS's you the intake — flagged HIGH VALUE. You call back in 20 minutes with a ballpark and a calendar. You close the job while the next contractor is still listening to the message.
Conservative math. Two extra residential jobs per month. One commercial spray foam job per year. Here's what that adds up to.
Orbit costs $1,152/year. One IRA attic job you captured instead of a competitor covers more than 2 years of Orbit. One commercial spray foam bid covers 26 years. The math is not a debate — IRA demand is at record levels and it will keep growing.
When a caller asks about the IRA federal tax credit for insulation, Orbit captures the full high-intent intake: home ownership status, which areas they're considering (attic, walls, crawlspace), current insulation situation, whether they have an energy audit report, their timeline, and whether they've gotten other quotes. These callers have money to spend and are ready to act — Orbit captures the full lead with all eligibility context before they hang up and call the next contractor on their list.
September and October are the most compressed booking months for insulation contractors. Call volume spikes 200–400% and most crews are already booked 2–3 weeks out. Orbit handles every call simultaneously — there's no queue, no hold time, no busy signal. Energy audit follow-up calls get flagged separately so you know those customers already have a report in hand and are ready to book immediately. You call back in priority order and fill your calendar at maximum rate during the only 8 weeks that matter.
Yes. Commercial spray foam jobs are $50,000–$500,000 projects where the first impression matters enormously. When a commercial prospect calls, Orbit answers professionally, captures the building type, square footage, application type (open cell, closed cell, roofing foam), timeline, and whether they're collecting bids or have already selected an applicator. The call is flagged HIGH VALUE so you know to prioritize the callback. A project manager who hits voicemail moves to the next sub — Orbit makes sure you're always the first answer.
Orbit’s live answering is $96/month all-in — no per-minute fees, no setup charges, no contracts. Cancel any time.
