Severna Park, Maryland

Your office is your truck. We run the back office.

No robots, no phone tag. Just booked jobs.

Software gives you a login. We do the job. When a call goes unanswered, your caller gets a text back in about 16 seconds with a booking link, and the job lands on your calendar.

Qualifying businesses start free: the 30-day beta. Full service, no card up front.

Demo line 443-844-3974. Call it, let it ring once, then hang up. There's no voicemail, don't leave a message. You'll get the same text your customers get.

Test Us · The 30-Second Club

Run the test. Watch the clock stop itself.

The 30-Second Club badge

Tap the clock to open the test form. The clock does not move until you hit submit, and it stops the moment the send stamps.

Every 410 business is a 30-Second Club member. Every missed call answered by text in 30 seconds, checked on their own proof page.

Path 1 · Right here

Fill out the form and hit submit. That is what starts the test: the text fires at your phone, the clock starts, and it stops the second the send stamps. Submitting adds you as a lead for the test, with consent for the test and verification replies only.

Path 2 · From your phone

Text DEMO to 443-844-3974. Same test, same clock, same two stamps. It just starts from your phone instead of this page.

The demo

The text that lands is the product.

No phone mockup, no screenshots. Call 443-844-3974, let it ring once, then hang up. There's no voicemail, don't leave a message. Here's the text that lands, printed exactly as it sends.

410 Business Solutions · Text · About 16 seconds later

Hi, this is 410 Business Solutions. You just ran the demo. Nobody answered on purpose, and this text still landed in about 16 seconds. That's the same text your customers get when you miss their call. Ask us anything about it: pricing, how it works, what it covers. If it's in our book, we'll reply right here. Everything's on our site too: 410businesssolutions.com. Want to see what a week at your business looks like? Reply DEMO and I'll send the link. Takes about 8 minutes, you just watch. No robots, no phone tag. Just booked jobs. Reply STOP to opt out.

410 Business Solutions · After you reply DEMO+

Here's the demo: 410businesssolutions.com/demo. One week at a heating and air business, played out in about 8 minutes. You'll see what your customers get and what lands on your phone as the owner. You don't have to type anything. At the end it asks you one yes or no question.

Every text above is a locked 410 message, printed word for word.

Call us, we won't answer, but we'll text back.

You've read the thread. Now get it on your own phone.

02

How it works

Three steps. None of them are yours.

You keep working. Missed calls stop costing you jobs, and your day doesn't change.

STEP 01

A call comes in while you're working

You're on a roof, under a sink, or halfway through a job across town. The call goes unanswered. That's fine. The next step is already set.

STEP 02

Your customer gets a text back

In about 16 seconds, a text lands from your own number with a booking link. If they ask something your business's answers don't cover, it goes to our team.

STEP 03

They book, and it lands on your calendar

They pick a time right from the text. Bookings land on your business's calendar, and it syncs two ways with your Google Calendar. Already have one? We connect it. Don't have one? We create one and share it with you.

It never guesses. Ask something it doesn't know, and the question goes to our team.

03

Local, on purpose

Built in Severna Park. Run from here, too.

The front counter is where the phone rings. It's also where nobody has a free hand.

You're talking to the people who built your setup+

410 is built and run in Severna Park, Maryland, for owners who are also the one under the lift, on the roof, or out on the truck. Most phone software comes from companies that have never stood in a business: a login, a dashboard, a support queue in another time zone. Here, one local company sets it up, writes the answers with you, and keeps it running. No ticket with a boardroom. The people who built your setup, in your state, on your time zone.

When something needs changing, you're not filing a ticket with a boardroom. You're talking to the people who built your setup, in your state, on your time zone.

In person

Businesses within 150 miles of Severna Park, Maryland.

04

No robots

A robot voice guesses. A written answer can't.

Every answer is written ahead of time by people, and anything outside those answers goes to our team. Your callers read plain answers your business approved in writing, in a normal text thread, on the phone they already use.

05

What's included

Everything's included.

One flat price, the full service. Every feature below comes with it, nothing held back as an upsell. Rolling out starting 11/12 at the same price. No new tier, no add-on for core, ever.

Calls+

Missed-call text-back in about 16 seconds

Two-way texting in the same thread, so the whole conversation stays in one place

Questions your approved answers don't cover go to our team. Every unanswered question is logged in the Answer Ledger, so you add the answer once, word for word, and never answer it twice.

Emergency Notification: when a customer's text says it's an emergency, three quick questions: what's the problem, what's the address, is everybody safe. You or your on-call get pinged on the spot, and the job books flagged EMERGENCY, first in line. The first alert is free.

Jobs+

Booking on your business's calendar, with a confirmation text when the job books

A reminder text the day before every job

Reschedule by text when a customer needs to move a job

Two-way sync with your Google Calendar, or a calendar we create and share with you

Job photos your customers send land right in the thread

One review ask per customer, ever, and only where they've agreed to promotional texts

A check-in text after the job, so a small problem gets caught while it's still small

Change orders by text: you start it, your customer gets the change, the price, and the new total by text, and the extra work waits for their clear yes.

Dispatch by text: your crew gets the day's assignments with no app and no login

Timesheets by text: crew hours come in by text and land in one place

Job Packet: the quote, the work list, and the invoice for every job, kept in one record

Weather-day reset: when weather kills a day, one text from you moves the whole day. Every customer gets a concrete new time by text and just answers YES.

Estimate follow-up, so a quote you sent doesn't just sit there

The deposit collected when they say yes

Replies to your reviews, handled for you

Service-due reminders for past buyers only, on the reminder intervals stored for your business

Early-closing notices: tell us the window, confirm the notice, and we text only the customers with appointments inside that window. Never a blast to your wider list.

Parts Desk, part of the kit for trades that run on parts: your crew texts a photo of the part, or the part number, right in the thread. We read it back to you exactly as we have it. We never guess a part. Then we do the hunting: the exact part, workable and in stock, at the closest place that has it and the cheapest place that has it, labeled plain. You tap the link and put it on hold yourself, on your own account. It never spends any money. A hold is not a purchase; you pay at pickup like always.

Your office+

One pinned thread, 410 Business Solutions Dashboard, carries your updates, your day sheet, and your dispatch, so nothing you need gets buried. Onboarding shows you how to pin it, on iPhone and Android.

Every customer conversation lives in its own thread under that customer's name, and alerts start with 410 Business Solutions and the customer's name, so you know who's who at a glance.

When something needs your call, it shows up as a simple question. Reply Y for yes, N for no, or type your own message

Ask your office: text a question about your business and get the answer back in the thread

Deadline Watch: reminders for the dates that cost you money if they slip, insurance, licenses, and any date you name

Demand Radar: a heads-up when work is about to pick up near you. Storms get named when there's a storm, plus county permit signals for your trade where they're verified live (Montgomery County today, more as their feeds verify). Your own busy seasons fold into your numbers over time.

Crew Caller ID: caller names on your crew's phones, so the crew sees which customer is calling

One custom metal tap card for your counter, included free

Proof+

A day sheet every morning: today's jobs in order, in one text

A Monday morning recap: what got booked, what got answered, and what needs you

Your full proof anytime from one link we text you: your week in plain numbers, month by month, back to day one, no login and no dashboard to hunt through.

Month-end proof in writing: what came in, what got booked

A year-end Wrapped: your year in one clean graphic, calls caught, reply speed, and jobs booked, made to be shared

Money+

A receipt for every charge

Unpaid invoice follow-up, polite and in writing

One free pause month a year: text PAUSE, service rests for a whole month starting the 1st of next month, nothing is billed, and there's no fee to come back

Referrals: send another business our way and they get $100 off their setup. Once they've been active 60 days, you get a $250 credit.

Switch credit: We'll credit up to $500 of your exit fee against your setup.

A bigger operation: extra crew seats run $250 to set up, then $250 a month each, in any trade.

More than one business: the first runs $450 a month and each additional business is $300 a month. Setup is $1,000 for the first, $500 for each additional.

Books+

QuickBooks sync: when a job is done, its invoice lands in your QuickBooks by itself, parts tagged to the job, and every payment posts against it. Nobody types it in twice.

Pay through your own Stripe and the money goes straight to your bank. We never hold it. Two fees come out on the way in, both printed in the terms before you connect: the card processor's fee, and our platform fee of half a percent of the payment.

Or keep the card processor you already have, cash and checks included. Nothing about how you get paid has to change, and your books still get done: mark the job paid and the payment posts.

Your books stay yours. We never delete an entry or change one that is already there. A fix posts as a new entry next to it, and you can disconnect QuickBooks any time.

If a payment is charged back, that stays between you and your customer. We do not manage, fund, or absorb chargebacks or clawbacks. We record it in your books so your records stay complete.

Add-ons, only if you want them

Everything above is already in your price. These are the only add-ons that ever cost more, and they're yours to skip.

  • Crew seats: $250 setup, then $250/mo for each added lead seat. Your main number is already included.
  • Schedule Fillers: $249/mo. Four sends a month, one a week, to fill slow weeks. Your first send is free, and sends begin once your list certification is on file, time-stamped, and you approve each send, or pick set it and forget it, and sends run on your standing approval.
  • Emergency Notification: $99/mo. When a customer reports an emergency, we keep alerting you until you answer. The first alert is already included free, above.
  • A website for your business: $450 to build, $29/mo to host.

Trade kits

We built a kit for your trade before you ever called.

Most phone software hands you a blank system and a pile of homework. We start from a kit built for your trade: the questions your customers ask, the intake your work needs, and the deadlines your trade lives by.

PART 01

Answers, already written

The common questions for your trade are answered ahead of time, in plain words, and saved. At intake we finish the set with you, so your answers are complete before you go live. Every answer is written by a person. No AI. No robots.

PART 02

Intake, shaped to the work

Your intake asks what your trade needs to price and schedule the job. It's shaped by your trade's kit and finished with you before you go live. If a question needs a person, it goes to our team.

PART 03

Deadlines, carried for you

License dates, renewal windows, and the clocks your trade runs on are part of the kit. They do not live in one person's head, and they do not get remembered at the last minute.

Kits built for 41 trades+

Find yours. Each kit comes from that trade's real questions, dates, and paper.

Home services

Auto & transport

Property & professional

Food & hospitality

Personal & care services

Kits are built for 41 trades across home services, home improvement, landscaping, auto and transport, property, food and hospitality, and personal and care services. Don't see yours? We build its kit the same way, from your trade's real questions, dates, and paper, finished with you before you go live.

Trade kits are how the back office gets set up. They are part of the service, not a separate product.

Beyond the text-back

The pieces your back office is built from.

Two are linked here. Three are named for what they do.

What it runs on

Not rented software. Ours.

410 runs on a system we built ourselves, for this one job. It runs the whole follow-up operation: booking and rescheduling, reminders, no-show follow-up, quote follow-up, review asks, and the day sheet and dispatch.

No AI voice

No AI making up replies on the spot, either. Every answer a customer gets was written in advance, locked, and checked.

Gated, not generated

If the answer is not in your business's book, nothing gets invented. It gets flagged, and our team monitors the backend so you don't have to.

Your book is your business

Your services, your prices, your hours, your words. Nothing borrowed from anybody else's.

Want to run a setup like this yourself? That system is CTNWD Systems.

Home service businesses don't answer about 27% of their calls during business hours (ServiceTitan study). Run your own numbers.

Booking rate defaults by trade. Change it below if yours runs different.

A ServiceTitan study puts missed inbound calls during business hours at about 27%.

Pricing

Pricing, printed in full. No quote call needed.

One service. Qualifying businesses start free on the beta. Young Owner is a discount on the same service.

Core

$1,000 setup + $450/mo

That's $15 a day.

The standard price for the full core service. One booked job covers it. Monthly billing starts the day you go live.

Get started
Each send covers up to 1,500 contacts+

Fill slow weeks (Schedule Fillers): $249/mo, four sends a month, one a week, and your first send is free as a one-time revive taster, on top of the four. Extra sends are $89 each. Each send covers up to 1,500 contacts; lists over that size are $25 for each additional 500 contacts per send, except the free taster send: if its list runs over 1,500 contacts, we absorb the overage, once per business, ever, and it is never billed. Sends begin once your list certification is on file, time-stamped, and you approve each send, or pick set it and forget it, and sends run on your standing approval.

Core plus Schedule Fillers together: $699/mo flat.

Running your first business? Young Owner runs $150 setup + $150/mo for a primary operator age 15 to 21, with ID verified at signup. It flips to core pricing at 22. Same service, first-business price. Ask about it on the call.

Billing starts the day you go live, not the day you sign. Cancel by text, effective at the end of the paid billing month. Go-live runs 3 to 5 days typically, sometimes up to a week or two depending on setup.

Key facts. Business hours: 11 AM to 11 PM, every day.

You're already paying for this work

Somebody answers for your business every day, or nobody does and you pay for that instead. There are four ways to pay for this work. Here is what each one really costs.

1. Pay a person+

A receptionist in the Baltimore area averages $18.98 an hour, $39,470 a year in wages alone. Then comes the part that is not on the job posting: payroll taxes, unemployment insurance, workers' comp, benefits. The Bureau of Labor Statistics counts about 43 cents of benefit costs on top of every dollar of wages, so the real cost lands around $4,700 a month, about $56,300 a year. Part-time softens it to roughly $2,100 a month for 20 hours a week. Either way you get the hours they are scheduled. Nights, weekends, lunch breaks, sick days, the morning they quit by text: uncovered. And the hiring, the training, and the covering are all yours.

2. Pay with your own hours+

Or you do it yourself, and it feels free because no invoice shows up. The callbacks. Texting customers back. Moving jobs around. Half an hour a day of it is 11 hours a month. Priced at a receptionist's wage, the cheapest pair of hands in this whole comparison, that is about $210 a month of your time, and your time is worth more than a receptionist's. It also never happens at a good moment. It happens with your hands full, mid-job, which is the whole problem.

3. Pay by the minute+

The answering services look cheaper until you read how they charge. Ruby, the big live answering service, charges $720 a month for 200 minutes of calls, and its plans run $720 to $1,725. AnswerConnect prints its prices: Growth is $395 a month for 300 minutes. Both bill by the minute, rounded up, overage on top. Your busiest month, the month you need the help most, is the month the meter runs highest. You are not buying coverage. You are renting a stopwatch.

4. Or pay us, once, flat+

$1,000 setup. $450 a month. That is $6,400 the first year and $5,400 a year after, for the whole back office: missed-call text-back in about 16 seconds, booking on your calendar, confirmations, reschedules, two-way texting, month-end proof in writing. No minutes. No overages. No add-on menu where every next feature costs more. About a tenth of the full-time hire. About a fifth of the part-time one.

It does not have to be this hard. You run your business. We handle the admin.

FAQ

Questions, answered straight.

What happens when a call goes unanswered?+

The caller gets a text back in about 16 seconds with a booking link, and the job lands on your calendar. Stated plainly, the core mechanic is a missed-call text-back and the follow-up system around it, run for your business by our team. The conversation stays two-way in the same thread.

Is this AI?+

No. It isn't AI, and there's no robot voice on your line. Every answer is written ahead of time by people, and anything outside those answers goes to our team.

Do I have to learn new software?+

No. 410 is a done-for-you service, not a platform. There's no login to keep up with, and setup is done for you. You run your business from your truck.

How much does it cost?+

$1,000 one-time setup, then $450 a month. The setup is charged at signup; the monthly doesn't start until your line is live. Qualifying businesses can start with a free 30-day beta: the full service, no card up front. On day 30 you see your own numbers, then decide yes or no.

What is the beta?+

The beta is how qualifying new businesses start: the full core service, free for 30 days, no card up front, for businesses missing at least eight new-customer calls a week. Betas open five at a time. On day 30 you see your proof page, then we ask you straight out, yes or no. Yes is the $1,000 setup plus your first month at $450, charged together that day, and your service never stops. No means the service turns off and you owe nothing.

How do I try the demo?+

Call (443) 844-3974, let it ring once, then hang up. There's no voicemail, don't leave a message. You'll get our text-back in about 16 seconds, the same text your customers get when you miss their call. Ask it anything about pricing, how it works, or what it covers. Or reply DEMO and the full demo runs right in the thread: a full week at a business like yours, played out in texts over the next 8 minutes. You don't type anything else.

Can I cancel by text?+

Yes. Month-to-month, no annual contract. Cancel by text: a text to your business's 410 line counts in full, and an email to info@410businesssolutions.com counts too. Service runs through the end of the month you already paid for, and nothing bills after that.

Where do you serve?+

We're based in Severna Park, Maryland, and we work in person with businesses within about 150 miles of Severna Park.

What guarantee do I get?+

If no booked job lands on your calendar in your first billed month, the next month is free, and a booked job means a job booked through your 410 system. For every full day the system is down on a day it should have been catching your calls, $15 comes off your next bill. Full days only, in writing, not on request. If we can't get your line approved and live, your setup fee comes back in full.

Can you fill my slow weeks?+

Yes. Schedule Fillers is $249 a month for four sends a month, one a week, and your first send is free as a one-time taster, on top of the four sends. Extra sends are $89 each. Each send covers up to 1,500 contacts, and lists over that size are $25 for each additional 500 contacts per send. On the free taster send, we absorb any overage, once per business, ever.

How fast is the text-back?+

Our standard is the 30-Second Club, the standard the text-back is measured against, so the time it takes to answer is checked rather than assumed. The time is measured on the send timestamp, and the number prints on your own proof page, hit or miss. If a text-back ever takes longer than 30 seconds, that day is free. If we slip on anything and we catch it, or you catch it and send it in, that day is credited in full.
