How Much Are Missed Calls
Costing You?

It depends on your numbers, but the math is simple: (missed calls per day) x (the share that would have become customers) x (your average customer value) x 30 days. For many local and service businesses, even a few missed calls a day adds up to thousands of dollars in lost revenue every month — because roughly half of callers who reach voicemail never call back; they just call the next business. Move the sliders above to see your own figure.

Multiply three things: how many calls you miss per day, the percentage of calls that would turn into paying customers, and the average value of a customer. Multiply by 30 for a monthly figure (or 365 for a year). This calculator does it instantly from those three inputs.

It's a free tool that turns 'we miss some calls' into a real dollar figure. You enter your missed calls per day, your close rate, and your average customer value, and it shows the revenue slipping away each month and year — so the cost of an unanswered phone stops being invisible.

The reliable fix isn't 'try harder to pick up' — it's putting something in place that answers every call. An AI receptionist answers 24/7 in a natural voice, handles common questions, books the appointment, and escalates the real stuff to you.
