Start with one. The ones marked below are where most fence contractors see the fastest return — but they all work on the same operation.
Phone Agent
First bid request answered live
The agent takes the call while you're setting posts, gets the property, the footage, and the material they're after, and books the measure.
- Callers hear a friendly greeting in your voice, day or night
- New leads are captured with name, number, and what they need
- Every call shows up as a transcript you can read later
Website
Materials, styles, and rough pricing
People shopping fence want to see vinyl versus wood versus aluminum and get a sense of cost. Answer that on the page and the calls you get are serious ones.
- Loads fast and looks right on every phone
- Edit your own pages by clicking or speaking, no tech skills
- Stays current because you change it the moment something changes
Custom CRM
Quotes through install, tracked
Measures booked, quotes sent, deposits taken, materials ordered, installs scheduled — a single pipeline instead of a stack of paper on the dash.
- Stop losing leads in spreadsheets, sticky notes, and inboxes
- See every deal and where it stands at a glance
- Built to match your steps, so your team actually uses it
Second Brain
Material costs and past quotes
What cedar ran last month, the setback rule in that township, what you bid on a similar yard — available immediately when you're pricing the next one.
- Stop digging through folders and old emails to find one detail
- Ask in plain words and get an answer in seconds
- Trust every answer because it shows the document it came from
Automated Social Media
Finished lines, in the neighborhoods
A clean fence is visible from the street and from a feed. Consistent posts keep you in mind before the neighbor calls three companies.
- You stay active online without writing a single post yourself
- Posts sound like you, not like a generic ad
- A steady schedule keeps you in front of local customers
Outbound Caller
Spring quotes, revisited
Fence decisions stall over money and weather. The agent follows up so the ready ones book instead of drifting to whoever called them last.
- Old leads get followed up instead of quietly going cold
- Every call opens with what that person actually cared about
- Common objections get handled instead of ending the call
Cold Email Pipeline
Builders, HOAs, and property managers
Repeat and multi-unit work comes from consistent outreach. We fix the deliverability so the messages get read.
- Deliverability problems get found and fixed, not guessed at
- Your mailboxes get warmed to full sending capacity
- Your data flows into your sending tool automatically
The rest of what we build
Linear-foot pricing, gate options, post counts — the estimating math you redo by hand can be built once and reused.
Frequently asked questions
How does the AI phone agent handle calls about fence types and pricing?+
You decide what information the agent shares. It can walk callers through your common fence types — wood, vinyl, chain link — collect their address and project details, and book a time for your in-person estimate. It answers in your business's name on your existing line.
Do I need to replace my current website to use these tools?+
Not necessarily. Paglow can build a new site alongside your current setup, or we can start fresh. The AI-built site is click- and voice-editable, so you can update photos, services, or service areas yourself without a developer.
What does the CRM do for a fence contractor specifically?+
It tracks each lead from first call through signed contract — estimate scheduled, quote sent, follow-up due, job on the calendar. You can see where every open job stands without digging through texts and voicemails.
You're the bid that answered first and followed up.
