An answering service for Texarkana, both sides of State Line
Two cities, two states, and area codes 903 and 870 on the same street. Brook, Ringbrook's AI, answers the calls you miss and gets the address, so you know which side of the line the job is on.
An AI receptionist, not a local call center
Ringbrook isn't in Texarkana. We're a small company in Broken Bow, Oklahoma, about an hour and a half away, and Brook answers over the internet. Your customers keep dialing your own 903, 430 or 870 number.
The calls a Texarkana business misses
A caller who gets voicemail often just calls the next name on the list. Brook picks up instead, asks questions written for your trade, and texts you the job.
Also for businesses in Nash, Wake Village, Hooks, New Boston, and Arkansas-side Texarkana.
Termites and humid-weather pests
Warm, wet weather means bugs. Brook asks what they're seeing, where and for how long, so you can tell a swarm from a routine spray.
Ringbrook for pest control →Long, humid summers
A dead AC in August can't wait. Brook asks if it's out right now and gets the address first.
Ringbrook for HVAC →Pines and storms
East Texas and south Arkansas have a lot of tall pines. Brook asks if a tree is on a house, a car or a power line.
Ringbrook for tree service →Leaks and water heaters
Brook flags water that won't stop as an emergency and tells the caller to shut off the main water if they safely can.
Ringbrook for plumbers →One Texarkana call, start to finish
A made-up spring call to a made-up Texarkana pest control company. Names and number are examples. Trimmed to the main lines; Brook also gets the caller's name.
BrookThanks for calling Example Pest Control. What can we help you with?
CallerThere are winged bugs swarming out of the baseboard in my kitchen.
BrookOkay. When did you first see them?
CallerThis morning. There's a pile of wings on the floor.
BrookThanks. Is the house on the Texas side or the Arkansas side?

BrookGot it. Is (903) 555-0134 the best number for Tony to call you back?
"Texas side or Arkansas side?" is a question the owner added. You can add your own the same way.
Your customers keep dialing your 903, 430 or 870 number
Nothing changes on your truck, your yard signs or your Google listing. You dial one short code from your phone (two on Pine Cellular), and the calls you don't pick up (no answer, busy or phone off) go to your Ringbrook number. Ringbrook numbers are 580 numbers right now; callers never have to see or dial it.
| Your phone company | Dial this | Turn it off |
|---|---|---|
| AT&T, T-Mobile, and brands on their networks (Cricket, Metro and others) | **004* + your Ringbrook number + # | ##004# |
| Verizon | *71 + your Ringbrook number | *73 |
| Most landlines and office phones | *71 + your Ringbrook number, then stay on about 5 seconds | *73 |
| Pine Cellular | *61* + your number, and *67* + your number for when you're on another call | #61 and #67 |
Your dashboard shows the exact code with your number already filled in, and says "Working" once a forwarded call comes through. Carrier not listed? Email hello@ringbrook.com. We won't guess a code.

What Texarkana business owners ask
Do you have an office in Texarkana?
No. Ringbrook is a small company based in Broken Bow, Oklahoma. Brook answers over the internet for businesses in any state, including both Texarkanas.
Can Brook ask which state the job is in?
Yes. Add "Texas side or Arkansas side?" to her questions in your dashboard. She always gets the address too, so it shows in your text either way.
I have an 870 number and my partner has a 903. Can both forward?
Each Ringbrook account comes with one Ringbrook number, and more than one phone can forward to it with the same code. The calls all land in one dashboard, and the texts go to the number you choose.
Does Brook quote termite treatments?
No. She never quotes a price or promises a time. She says she can't quote that and that you'll call right back, then keeps getting the details.
