It counts only new customers who would otherwise have gone to someone else. On the phone: calls a day, times 22 working days, times the share that goes unanswered today, times the share of callers who are new, times the share of those who call someone else and don’t come back. On each message line: the new customers who write there in a month, times the share who book elsewhere while waiting hours for a reply (25%). Each line is rounded to whole customers and valued at what a new enquiry is worth. These are typical numbers for each kind of business, not measurements of yours.

Aevon starts at $150 a month and rises with the calls and messages a business gets and what its customers are worth, plus a one-time setup of up to one month’s rate. You pay for the lines you use. We publish no ceiling, so the last column is an estimate, not a limit: a typical share of what Aevon would bring in for that kind of business, never less than $150. We work out your real price on the call — and if your first month doesn’t bring you three times what you pay, you don’t pay.
