Missed call cost calculator

What are your missed calls actually costing you?

Enter call volume, missed percentage, job value and conversion assumptions to estimate potential telephone opportunity cost. This educational model does not estimate revenue Boafo Agent can recover.

Your numbers

All defaults are illustrative. Replace them with your records; repeat calls and non-sales enquiries can overstate loss.

Boafo Agent does not currently answer telephone calls. It responds to website enquiries and collects information online. Telephone and voice coverage require a separate answering solution today.

Estimates use your illustrative inputs, not observed losses or measured Boafo results. No telephone recovery rate is projected. Boafo handles website enquiries today; voice, telephone, outbound calling, SMS and WhatsApp are not live standard capabilities.

Where the lost revenue actually comes from

Voicemail hang-ups

Some callers may abandon voicemail, retry or contact another business. Use your own records to understand what happens; no universal abandonment percentage is assumed.

Out of hours enquiries

Evenings and weekends are exactly when customers have time to call, and when most small teams are off the phone.

Busy day overflow

When the day gets busy, calls go unanswered for stretches and the cost compounds quietly.

Boafo Agent does not close these telephone gaps. It can help with missed website enquiries through online responses and information collection. Arrange separate telephone coverage today. Read about a 24/7 AI receptionist, an AI call answering service or an after-hours answering service.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a missed call really cost a small business?

It depends on your average job value and close rate, but for most service businesses a single missed call is worth tens to hundreds of pounds in lost lifetime value. The calculator on this page makes it concrete using your real numbers.

What percentage of business calls are typically missed?

There is no universal missed-call rate suitable for this model. Use your own telephone logs; the default percentage is an illustrative input, not an industry benchmark.

Do most callers leave a voicemail?

Some callers leave a message, retry or use another channel. Check your own records rather than assuming all voicemail calls are lost sales.

How does an AI receptionist change the maths?

Telephone answering services may change your call response process, but outcomes depend on the provider and your callers. Boafo Agent does not answer telephone calls; it responds to website enquiries, collects information and supports booking where configured.

Is this calculator realistic for B2B sales?

Yes. Use your average deal value and pipeline conversion rate. The same maths applies, just with bigger deal sizes and longer cycles.

Will my real numbers match this estimate?

These are illustrative opportunity-cost estimates, not observed revenue losses or a Boafo recovery forecast. Repeat callers, non-sales enquiries and later conversions can make the simple model overstate loss.

Can I see a live walkthrough with my numbers?

Yes. Book a 20 minute demo and we will run your numbers, train the AI on your live website beforehand and show it answering your real customer questions.

What does Boafo cost?

The Starter plan is £99 a month plus a £499 one-off onboarding fee. There are no per-minute fees. See /pricing for Growth, Pro and Enterprise tiers.

Review your website enquiry workflow.

We can demonstrate Boafo answering website questions and collecting enquiry details. This is not a demonstration of telephone answering or recovered call revenue.
