What We Build

Six systems. Every gap plugged.
Your business on autopilot.

Each system is custom-built to your business. No templates. No guesswork. Just results — for trades, clinics, wellness, hospitality and everything in between.

Smart CRM
The Problem
Leads live in your head, on sticky notes, and in text threads. Jobs fall through the cracks and you don't even know which ones.
BackBone fixes this
  • Full pipeline — every lead, quote & job tracked
  • Automated follow-ups, no manual chasing
  • Full client history — every job, message & note
  • Replaces your spreadsheets and memory
Zero leads slipping through. One dashboard, total clarity.
AI Receptionist
The Problem
You're busy with a client or on the tools. The phone rings. Voicemail. That $4,000 job — or that new patient — just went to your competitor.
BackBone fixes this
  • Answers every call — 24 hours, 7 days a week
  • Qualifies leads and books appointments automatically
  • Missed call text-back — instant SMS reply
  • Professional and on-brand every single time
Never lose a job or booking to a missed call again. Not even at midnight.

Lead Automation
The Problem
New enquiries go cold because nobody followed up fast enough. You're too busy to chase the next lot — revenue stays unpredictable.
BackBone fixes this
  • Instant lead capture from web, social & ads
  • Automated Email + SMS follow-up within 60 seconds
  • Quote reminders sent until they commit
  • High-converting funnels to qualify & capture
A full calendar without lifting a finger.
Reviews & Reputation
The Problem
Your work is excellent but your Google profile doesn't reflect it. You forget to ask. Clients mean to leave one and never do. Competitors rack up 5-stars and get the calls.
BackBone fixes this
  • Automated review requests post-job via SMS + email
  • Google & Facebook reviews on autopilot
  • Past client reactivation — bring back lost customers
  • Referral prompts built into every post-job flow
The most reviewed, most trusted business in your area.
Bookings & Quotes
The Problem
Back-and-forth scheduling burns hours. Quotes go out and disappear. No reminders, no follow-up. Jobs you should be winning go to someone else.
BackBone fixes this
  • Online booking — clients schedule themselves, 24/7
  • Automated quote delivery + follow-up reminders
  • Job confirmations + reminders to cut no-shows
  • Smart calendars — no double-bookings, ever
A calendar that fills itself. A pipeline that never stalls.
Website & Funnels
The Problem
Your website looks dated, doesn't rank on Google, and isn't converting visitors. Ad spend gets wasted because the page leaks leads before they ever contact you.
BackBone fixes this
  • Custom website built to modern standards — fast & mobile
  • High-converting funnels for ads and social
  • Every enquiry flows straight into your CRM
  • SEO-optimised — built to rank and impress instantly
More leads from the same ad spend. Your best salesperson, 24/7.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

BackBone replaces the 5+ apps you're juggling with one powerful system built for your business. We automate your follow-ups, quote chasing, review requests, funnels, and bookings — so your business runs itself while you focus on what you do best.

Our team handles the entire installation — CRM, workflows, automations, website builds. Most businesses are fully live in 7–14 days without you lifting a finger.

Most clients see more booked jobs or appointments within the first 30 days. Because follow-ups, quotes, and reviews happen automatically, you close more work with less admin — and build a reputation that keeps new work flowing in.

Not at all. BackBone was built so even the busiest business owner can use it without stress. We handle setup, training, and ongoing support — you just log in and watch it run.

Qwila is our voice-to-quote app — walk the job, talk through the scope, and Qwila generates a professional quote automatically. It integrates with your BackBone CRM so everything stays in sync. Learn more at qwila.app.
