Canada is big, and its customers are spread across time zones. A plumber in Toronto, a tour operator in Vancouver, or a shop serving a whole province all lose the same thing when the phone goes unanswered: the job goes to the next listing. A chatbot answers after hours, captures the name, the problem, and the address, and a fast website keeps hours, services, and prices clear without a rebuild.
All of it is built and hosted remotely — no office in Canada, just service for Canadian businesses, in English, from Eastern Kentucky, USA.
Toronto businesses compete on speed. Restaurants, trades, clinics, and service firms in the downtown core and the surrounding neighbourhoods get calls while the owner is on another job. A chatbot that answers common questions, gives a service area, and takes a booking request turns a missed call into a lead that can be followed up the next morning.
Vancouver runs on tourism, port and construction trades, and a busy service economy. Visitors and new residents search for hours, prices, and availability late at night and on weekends. A chatbot and a clear website answer those questions in English, even when the shop is closed, and keep the business visible to people who are not local yet.
Remote service is not limited to Toronto and Vancouver. If your business is in another Canadian city or province, the same setup applies: remote build, remote hosting, written scope, and a quote form to start. There is no office in any Canadian city.
Founding offer: the first 3 chatbot clients pay $40 to build (normally $80), with 3 months of hosting free, then $50/month.
Remote-only service. 50% deposit up front, everything in writing. Prices are in US dollars unless otherwise agreed in writing. There is no office in Canada — all work is done remotely, and the quote forms on hdritchie.com are the way to reach me.
