Sound familiar?

You’re great at the work. The phone is the problem.

The call you couldn't take

You're on a roof, under a hood, mid-fade or slammed at lunch. By the time you call back, they already booked someone else.

Messages everywhere

Texts in one app, Facebook in another, Instagram DMs in a third. Something always slips through.

Happy customers, no reviews

People love your work and leave without saying so online, because nobody asked them at the right moment.

What the Hub does

Everything that happens after “Hey, are you open?”

Every tool is yours the day you join. No extra charge for the tools; texting and calling usage is billed separately at cost.

Missed-call text-back

Miss a call and the Hub texts them back in seconds, so they wait for you instead of calling the next business.

One inbox

Texts, Facebook, Instagram and your website chat in one place, on your phone.

Review requests

Ask every happy customer for a Google review automatically, right after the job or visit.

Online booking

Customers pick a time on your calendar, and reminders go out on their own.

Follow-ups that send themselves

Quote follow-ups, appointment reminders, "we miss you" texts. Set them once.

Every lead in one view

Pipelines, forms and email marketing, so you always know who's waiting on you.

Want AI that answers calls and chats for you? We'll go over AI options on your onboarding call. They carry a small usage cost and only get turned on if you choose them.

Built for your kind of business

What the Hub looks like for you

  • On a job when they call? Missed-call text-back holds the lead until you're off the ladder.
  • Quotes that go quiet? Automatic follow-ups nudge them for you.
  • Job done? A review request goes out the same day.

What it costs. All of it.

No catch. Here’s every dollar.

How it works

From checkout to your first call in one business day

You won’t be left alone with new software. Here’s exactly what happens.

  1. 1

    Today · 5 minutes

    Claim or add your business

    On our join page (steps below). It's free, and we review every claim and new listing by hand, then email you when you're approved.

  2. 2

    Once you're approved

    Get Featured

    Check out from your dashboard. You pay $25 and nothing else.

  3. 3

    Within 1 business day

    Your Hub login arrives by email

    From LRGV Hub (hub.livingrgv.com). Don't see it? Check your spam folder.

  4. 4

    Within 1 business day

    Your welcome & discovery call

    A 15–20 minute call to get to know your business, what's costing you customers right now, and which Hub features will help you most first.

  5. 5

    On that call

    We set up your Hub number and texting balance

    The Hub needs its own local number for automations. Your personal number stays yours, and calls can forward straight to it.

  6. 6

    Your pace

    Set it up your way

    Do it yourself, or get a free guided walkthrough from us, on your welcome call or a separate Google Meet. Want us to build it all for you? Done-for-you setup is a custom quote starting at $199.

  7. 7

    You're live

    Missed calls get answered. Reviews get asked for.

    Once your features are on, every message lands in one inbox on your phone.

Have these handy for your call

  • Your business phone number
  • Google Business Profile login
  • Logo and a few photos
  • Business hours
  • List of your services and prices
  • 15–20 free minutes

Signing up, step by step

Here’s exactly what to click

About 5 minutes. Most of it is typing in your business details.

  1. 1

    Go to the join page

    Tap Get Featured anywhere on this page, or Become a Member in the top menu.

  2. 2

    Choose List my business

    Not "Join as a creator." That one's for content creators.

  3. 3

    Search for your business by name

    Many Valley businesses are already listed. You'll sign in with your email or Google, then it's one of two paths:

    Found it

    Click This is my business — claim it, then Claim your page

    Confirm you're connected to the business. We review every claim by hand.

    or

    Not there

    Click Add it →

    Fill in your business info. We review new listings before they go live.

  4. 4

    Fill in your business details

    Hours, services, contact info, your logo and a cover photo, from your dashboard. New listings can do this while they're in review; claimed pages unlock as soon as your claim is approved.

  5. 5

    Once you're approved, click Get Featured on your dashboard

    Or Upgrade to Featured →, the same checkout. Check out for $25. That's the last thing you do. We take it from there: login email and welcome call within 1 business day.

Questions

Before you ask

Is there a contract?

No. It's month-to-month and you can cancel anytime. Founding members keep the $25 rate as long as they stay.

Do I have to change my phone number?

No. The Hub uses its own local number for automations like missed-call text-back, and calls can forward to your personal number. We set it up together on your call.

I'm not a tech person.

You won't figure it out alone. We'll walk you through it for free, on your welcome call or a separate Google Meet. Prefer we build it for you? Done-for-you setup is a custom quote starting at $199.

What does texting and calling cost?

It's billed at cost, with no markup, from a prepaid balance. We'll show you the exact rates on your call before you add a dollar.

What if my claim isn't approved?

Nothing is charged until your claim is approved. LivingRGV is for businesses owned or operated in the Valley.

What happens when the 50 founding spots are gone?

New members pay $49/mo. Founding members keep $25 for as long as their subscription stays active.

Your next customer is calling. Make sure someone answers.
