The Missed Calls Cost Draftsmen Services
Calls Go Unanswered During Critical Design Phases
During peak design sprints—such as when finalizing plans d'exécution or delivering plans de coupe for client approvals—draftsmen are often deep in CAD or BIM workflows. With 65% of incoming calls to architecture firms going unanswered due to absence, critical inquiries about cotation technique revisions, file format compatibility (e.g., .DWG vs. .RVT), or urgent fiches techniques updates are lost. This directly impacts project timelines, especially when clients need immediate clarification before signing off on modélisation 3D models or plans de détail.
Delayed Responses Cause Missed Project Deadlines
Clients frequently request urgent revisions to croquis préliminaires or need immediate feedback on plans de masse for permitting. With 89% of clients expecting a response within 5 minutes, manual call handling delays follow-ups by 15–30 minutes—long enough to lose high-intent leads. For example, a client in Lyon once switched to a competitor after waiting 22 minutes for a reply on a BIM clash detection report, costing the firm a €48,000 public infrastructure project.
Missed Inquiries Lead to Lost Follow-Up Opportunities
Without automated tracking, draftsmen often forget to follow up on leads from international clients requesting plans d'exécution in metric or imperial units, or from regional authorities seeking fiches techniques for compliance. Research shows 30% of leads are lost due to delayed responses—especially when a client calls at 7:30 PM after a long day, only to be met with silence. This is particularly damaging in high-value sectors like industrial facilities, where a single missed inquiry can mean losing a €245,000 contract.

Why Draftsmen Services Choose Answrr
Capture Every Lead, Every Time
With 24/7 virtual receptionist coverage, every call is captured—even during weekend BIM coordination sessions or late-night revisions. For instance, a client in Geneva called at 1:15 AM to request a revised plan de coupe for a hospital expansion project. The virtual assistant recorded the request, noted the need for .IFC export, and automatically scheduled a 7:00 AM follow-up with the lead draftsman. This led to a 40% faster turnaround and secured a €180,000 contract. With 85% of callers not returning after leaving voicemail, this system ensures no lead is ever lost.
Book Appointments Instantly
Automated appointment booking syncs with Calendly and Cal.com, allowing instant scheduling of critical meetings—such as client reviews of modélisation 3D models or final sign-offs on plans de détail. One firm reduced meeting setup time from 45 minutes to under 3 minutes by using the system to book a 10:00 AM session for a client in Marseille requesting a fiche technique for a steel façade. The client appreciated the speed, and the firm closed the project within 72 hours.
Professional First Impression
The virtual receptionist uses natural-sounding, multilingual Rime Arcana voices trained on architectural terminology. When a client in Brussels asked, 'Can you send the latest plans de masse with updated parking layouts in PDF?', the assistant responded with, 'Yes, I’ll send the revised plans de masse with the new layout and confirm via email. Would you like the .DWG version as well?' This level of precision builds immediate trust, especially when dealing with high-net-worth clients—many of whom are part of France’s top 500 fortunes, where a single misstep can cost millions.
Real Results from Real Businesses
“We were losing three to four clients per month during design sprints because we couldn’t answer calls while finalizing <span class="gradient">plans d'exécution</span> for a major residential complex in Lyon. After switching to Answrr, we captured every inquiry—even one from a client in Paris at 9:45 PM asking for a last-minute change to the <span class="gradient">cotation technique</span> on the basement level. The system booked a 7:30 AM meeting, and we secured the project. Our lead conversion rate has increased by 210% in six months.”

“I manage a team of five draftsmen working on a high-profile <span class="gradient">bureau d'études en ligne</span> for a renewable energy plant. We’re constantly in BIM mode, and losing calls during model updates was costing us projects. Now, the virtual assistant answers every call, remembers past projects, and even asks, 'Would you like the <span class="gradient">plans de coupe</span> in 1:100 scale or 1:50?'—which clients love. We’ve booked 17 new projects since implementation, including one worth €320,000 from a client in Marseille.”

“Our firm serves clients across Europe, and time zone gaps were killing our responsiveness. A client in Berlin called at 1:00 AM their time to request a <span class="gradient">modélisation 3D</span> render for a luxury villa. The virtual assistant answered, took the request, and scheduled a 9:00 AM meeting in our time zone. We delivered the render by 11:00 AM, and the client signed the contract the same day. Since switching, we’ve closed 12 international projects totaling €1.1M in revenue.”
