Your business has a front desk now.
Sarah is set up around your business to text leads back fast and book jobs onto your calendar. We collect the brief first, then turn on what’s ready with a real person watching the setup. No app to install, no dashboard to babysit.
Sarah is part of a full growth team — not just a chatbot. Ask her anything, or a real person gets you set up.

First job
Stop losing leads
Sarah captures the miss, texts back, books, and recaps.
Meet Sarah — a 40-second look at how she works.
The calls you miss are the jobs you lose
When you’re on a ladder, under a car, or with a client, the phone still rings. Sarah catches what you can’t — so the work doesn’t slip away.
Catches
Spots the call you can't take — on a ladder, under a car, mid-job — before the lead slips.
Texts
Texts missed callers and new leads back in seconds, not hours.
Books
Offers real openings from your calendar and locks in the job.
Follows up
Sends reminders, chases no-shows, and asks for the review after.
AI Temp · Catalyst Growth
I'm Sarah. I text back. You work.
Hey, I'm Sarah — an AI temp on your Catalyst Growth team. I live in your phone: when you can't get to the call, I text your leads back in seconds and book the work while you're heads-down on the job. I'm onboarding my first shops right now, so I'm early — but I never clock out, and I never forget a follow-up.
Always on
No off-hours, no sick days — awake at 2 a.m. so you don't have to be.
Replies in seconds
A lead texts in and Sarah answers right away — not hours later.
Never drops a follow-up
Reminders, check-ins, review requests — she keeps the thread alive.
Books the job
Offers times, books the appointment, handles reschedules — without you on the thread.
Shop-fluent
Speaks local service: estimates, windows, deposits, “can you come Tuesday?”
See-It / Show-It
A lead sends a photo — she sees it. Ask “got anything like this?” and she shows your real work.
Sounds like you
Warm, professional, never pushy — your words, in her voice.
Runs your back office
Not just the front desk — she briefs you, routes jobs to the crew, and preps work for your OK.
Photo messaging is live in this sandbox. Texting and photos to your real customers switch on as we clear carrier approval.
Honest note: we’re onboarding our first businesses, and Sarah’s live text messaging switches on as carrier approval clears. We’ll show you exactly what’s ready before anything goes live for your customers.

Ask Sarah before you start a plan
Sarah's capsule lives in the corner of this page — click it any time. Before you start onboarding, ask her why the brief comes first, what the deposit covers, or to compare Starter, Growth, and Managed. She'll hand you to a real person the moment a question needs one.
“I can explain why the brief comes before Stripe.”

What the first month actually looks like
No dashboards to babysit, no bot to configure. Here's the rhythm — the same every month once we're running.
Week 1
We get set up
Sarah learns your business and starts texting your leads back.
Week 2
The phone stops slipping
Missed calls get texted back in seconds; new jobs land on your calendar.
Week 3
Nothing falls through
Follow-ups, reminders, and review asks keep every lead warm.
Month-end
You see it all, plain
One short recap: who called, what booked, what's next — no dashboard homework.
Early and honest: we're onboarding our first shops, so this is how a month is built to work — not a track record yet. Sarah's live texting to your customers switches on as carrier approval clears.

Start onboardingEvery button starts the onboarding brief first. Stripe collects only the one-time deposit after the brief is submitted — no subscription starts today.
How getting started works
- 2 minutes
Pick a plan
Starter, Growth, or Managed — pick what fits so we know what kind of setup you are starting.
- 5–10 minutes
Complete the onboarding brief
Tell us the business, service area, pages, content, and contact info first. Then Stripe opens for the deposit.
- after the brief
Pay the deposit and we start
Stripe collects only the one-time deposit. We review the brief, set up Sarah, and confirm before the monthly plan starts.
Voice calls are coming soon across every plan. Until then, Sarah handles everything by text — voice is included at no extra cost when it launches.
Sarah is the same AI teammate in Starter, Growth, and Managed. Starter organizes and captures leads, Growth adds the bad-call correction loop, and Managed adds a human growth team and marketing support. Move up or down anytime; Sarah already knows your business either way.

Questions, answered
- Why three tiers? Why not just one?
- Because small businesses are different. A solo plumber doesn't need social media management; a growing law firm might. We show the options and let you choose — no “call us for pricing” friction.
- Can I start with Starter and move up to Growth later?
- Yes. Sarah already knows your business — nothing resets. You pay the price difference in a new deposit and your monthly rate updates from there.
- Can I start with Growth and add Managed later?
- Yes — or start with Managed and drop down to Growth later. Sarah stays the same: she knows your business and your customers either way.
- What's included in Managed's human team time?
- Managed's standing scope is the monthly SEO check, social posts, review monitoring, and website health check listed above. Anything beyond that — paid ads, content, photography, multi-location work — is scoped and priced with your growth lead before anything starts.
- Is Sarah a real person?
- Sarah is an AI assistant named after the role she fills — like Alexa or Siri. She runs as your business's front desk, and if a customer asks “are you a real person?” she tells them honestly. She never pretends to be a specific human employee.
- During onboarding, our team personally runs Sarah's front desk while carrier approval (A2P 10DLC) clears — a hands-on, human-assisted service, not a fully autonomous system yet. As live texting switches on, Sarah takes over more of the loop, and we'll always show you what's automated versus hand-run.
- Managed is not a full marketing agency. Its base scope is the SEO, social, review, and website checks listed above; anything beyond that is scoped and priced separately with your growth lead.
- Voice calls are coming soon across every plan. Until then, Sarah handles everything by text — voice is included at no extra cost when it launches.
- Live texting to your customers — text-back, reminders, and SMS booking — activates as carrier approval (A2P 10DLC) clears. We'll show you exactly what's ready before anything goes live for your customers, and never text your customers before it's cleared.
- No guaranteed results. We can't promise specific rankings, call volume, or revenue — only that Sarah will text your leads back and our team will do the work.
- Pricing is a one-time deposit plus a month-to-month rate after — no long-term contracts. Cancellation notice is 14 days for Starter and Growth, 30 days for Managed.
We show the system running before we call it proven
A working template — a lawn-care growth system
Template, not a case studyWe’ve built the full growth system as a working, sign-in-protected template around a lawn-care business — the site, Sarah, the loop, the reporting — so you can see the system actually running before we take on a client.
To be honest about where we are: this is a template, not a paying-client result. No revenue claims, no logos, no “trusted by” — we’re onboarding our first businesses now.
You grow alongside other Catalyst businesses
Sarah is the engine; Catalyst Network is the neighborhood it runs in — a community layer we’re building under Catalyst Community where the businesses we work with send each other leads, pop up together, and give back. It’s private-until-proof: not a live public service yet, opening to delivering clients first.
