The Missed-Booking Economy

Every unanswered call is a table your competitor just filled.

Without an AI phone answering for restaurants, the average restaurant loses 18% of direct bookings to voicemail, hold music, or wait times. Missed calls don't come back — they leave a review on Google.

Busy service times leave guests hanging. They move on to the next restaurant on the list.

How we calculate

Missed calls / month ≈ inbound calls/day × 30 × (missed % ÷ 100).

Est. monthly guest-check revenue at risk ≈ missed/mo × 17% (reservation / order intent) × avg guest check × revenue uplift × 1.06 (comps / abandoned-cart buffer).

Recovered covers / parties (est.) ≈ missed/mo × 17% × 87% capture. Net monthly gain ≈ recovered revenue − $299/mo plan.

REAL RESULTS

$18K+ recovered in month two alone.

We were missing 20–30 calls every evening during peak hours because our staff was tied up with in-house guests. After implementing Oravoice, we immediately started capturing more reservations and takeout orders—it paid for itself within days.

By the end of month two, we recovered over $18K in direct revenue and significantly reduced missed calls during our busiest hours.
