Average value of an exterior painting job
Typical exterior painting season
of repeat customers are never reactivated
You're a master painter. You shouldn't also have to be a scheduler, estimator, and collections agent.
Quote follow-up falling through after the site visit
You spent an hour on a site visit, promised a quote by end of day, but a last-minute job pushed it to tomorrow.
Material over-ordering eating into margin
You guestimated 15 gallons of paint for the job, but only used 12.
Exterior painting season is 6 months — no systematic campaign during off-season
Your schedule is packed from May to October, but the winter months are a struggle.
Repeat customers for interior refreshes never reactivated
You painted a customer's living room two years ago. They loved your work, but you haven't been in touch since.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can the Quoting Agent calculate paint needs from a voice memo?
Yes. Describe the room dimensions or exterior size, and the agent will estimate the required gallons of paint and primer, factoring in the number of coats.
How does the Marketing Agent know when to run campaigns?
It monitors your calendar and local weather forecasts. When it sees a gap in your schedule or the start of the off-season, it will suggest a relevant campaign.
Can I customize the follow-up schedule for quotes?
Yes. You can set the number of follow-ups and the interval between them for each job type. For example, you can have a more aggressive follow-up schedule for high-value exterior jobs.
Does the Dispatch Brain integrate with my paint supplier?
Yes. We have direct integrations with major paint suppliers like Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore. You can also set up a custom integration with any supplier that accepts email orders.
Can the Front Desk Agent handle inquiries in Spanish?
Yes. The agent can be configured to handle inquiries in multiple languages, including Spanish. It will respond in the language of the customer.
Does it sync with my Google Calendar?
Yes, two-way sync. The agent knows your real availability when booking jobs and adds every new booking to your calendar automatically.
Can my crew use it on their phones?
Yes. Your crew gets a mobile-first view: their daily schedule, job details, photo upload, and mark-complete. Works as a PWA — no app store install required.
How is this different from a standard CRM?
A CRM helps you organize your work. Sterling's AI agents do the work for you — answering calls, generating quotes, scheduling crews, and chasing payments. It's a full back office, not just a contact list.
Can I import my existing customer list?
Yes. CSV import with column mapping. Most painting contractors are fully imported in under 10 minutes.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. 14-day free trial, full access
