What it is: a Loom of two and a half to three minutes. Your screen with your camera in the corner, a live call on speaker to a line that answers as LDG Joinery in a Manchester voice, the job landing on their demo office, and the text arriving on the caller's phone. This one is about the call itself, because that is exactly what they agreed to see.
Where it came from: Lincoln's Instagram DM (tracker row 241). The opener offered "a quick video showing what it would sound like answering as LDG Joinery". They replied the same day: "Yeah can do let me have a look", then "No problem". So the video goes back in that same DM thread.
What has to exist before you film: it all exists. Their line answers as LDG Joinery, their office is live, and calls to the line text the caller from "LDG Joinery" and land on Leads within about 10 seconds.
The one thing that can kill it: the opener said it "books the job in". The demo never books, it takes the details for Leon to ring back. Show that, and never say "books".
A small joinery and fitting firm around Bolton, run by Leon, who fits kitchens, bedrooms and bathrooms and does doors, windows and flooring. No website and no Companies House match, so most likely a sole trader.
| Fact | What I found | Where |
|---|---|---|
| The person | Leon. Name from you, 13 November. Never name or describe anyone from their photos. | Rachel |
| Main work | Fitted kitchens, bedrooms and bathrooms, internal doors, flooring, external and composite doors, uPVC and windows. | Instagram bio |
| Jobs customers mention | New windows and fascias, four internal doors, a garden side gate, a kitchen and utility room fit. Praise for tidy, prompt work, and one would hire them again. | Yell reviews |
| Where | Yell lists them in Bolton; the tracker has them as Manchester. The agent says Bolton and across Greater Manchester. | Yell, tracker |
| Companies House | No "LDG Joinery". The nearest trade name, LDG Building Contractors Ltd, is in Liverpool and probably not them. | Searched 13 Nov |
| How work reaches them | Instagram and their phone. No site, no contact form. |
"You're halfway through fitting a kitchen and the phone goes. This is what the customer hears instead of voicemail."
Aim for two and a half to three minutes. Unscripted: these are the points each step has to land and what is on screen. The words are yours.
| Time | What is on screen | What it has to land |
|---|---|---|
| 0:00 to 0:20 | Their Instagram profile, your camera in the corner. | Hi Leon, Rachel here. You said you'd have a look, so here's what it sounds like when a line answers as LDG Joinery. |
| 0:20 to 1:40 | Their office on Leads. Phone on speaker by the mic, dialing 07457 434327. | The call, as the customer in the call sheet below. Let it run in full. |
| 1:40 to 2:10 | Your phone to the camera as the text lands, then Leads: the call appears on its own. Open it. | The customer has a text from LDG Joinery already. And this is what Leon sees: name, number, address, the job, written up, while he's still on the tools. |
| 2:10 to 2:40 | A quick pass over Invoices and Reviews. | Say only: the same office turns the job into an invoice and asks for a Google review when it's done. Keep it short: the call is the point here. |
| 2:40 to 3:00 | You. | Ask what he thinks, and offer a quick call to set it up for him properly. Stop recording right after. |
Ring 07457 434327 from your mobile. This call shows it handling a real enquiry, the two things it must never do, and the postcode lookup.
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Their line | 07457 434327. Answers "Hello, LDG Joinery, how can I help?" in the VL Manchester Receptionist voice. Says "Leon will ring you back". |
| What it knows | Kitchens and utility rooms, fitted bedrooms, bathrooms, internal and composite doors, uPVC windows, fascias, flooring and gates. Bolton and across Greater Manchester. Free quotes once Leon has seen the job. |
| What it never does | Gives a price, agrees a day or time, confirms an accreditation it hasn't been told about, or says whether a town is covered. |
| Safety lines | A break-in: ring 999 if anyone might still be there. Broken glass: keep everyone away. A leak: water off at the stopcock. |
| Postcode lookup | Only when the caller doesn't know it. Reads back what it finds and asks if it sounds right; never changes a postcode they gave. |
| After the call | A text to the caller from "LDG Joinery", a Telegram to you, and the job on Leads within about 10 seconds. |
| Their office | ldg-joinery.voicedesk.rachelepps.com: their logo, a break-in back door (urgent), wardrobes and doors on WhatsApp, a side gate quote, windows and fascias, a kitchen fit, four internal doors. |
| Tests | Test pack 24 of 25 (the one fail is the known judge quirk on a correct payload). |
In the same Instagram thread Lincoln started, once the Loom is up. Loom link only, never a romanlogic.com link. No figures, no "AI", no claims about other clients.
Hi Leon, here's the video: [Loom link]
It's about three minutes. A customer rings while you're on a job, it answers as LDG Joinery, takes their details and texts them, and the job lands on your phone ready for you to ring back.
If it looks useful, happy to set up a quick call to get it set up for you properly.
If the text or the office are left out of the cut, take them out of the second line too.
