A 24/7 front desk for Fredericton businesses — never miss a call.

If you run a local business in Fredericton, your phone is your front door. But you can't cut hair, fix a furnace, or run a busy cafe counter and answer every call at the same time. So calls slip through — at lunch, after closing, on weekends — and in a competitive provincial-capital market, the caller just dials the next name on the list.

Adventure Movement Studio fixes that for you. We give Fredericton-area businesses a done-for-you, always-on front desk that answers every call, books the job, asks happy customers for a Google review, and quietly automates the follow-up. It's remote, it's bilingual, and it's one vendor for the whole thing.

Who we help in Fredericton

The greater Fredericton region is home to roughly 6,750 businesses, and most of them live and die by the phone. We work with the local service businesses that can't afford to miss a ring:

• Barbershops and hair & nail salons — booked solid, chair-side, phone ringing through.
• Plumbers, roofers, HVAC and electricians — on a job, under a sink, up a ladder when the next customer calls.
• Med spas, dental and wellness clinics — where one new patient is worth a lot and a missed call is real money.
• Gyms, studios and trainers — signing up members while you're coaching the floor.
• Cafes, restaurants and auto shops — the lunch rush is exactly when the phone goes unanswered.

Different trades, same problem: too few hands, one phone, and a 24-hour clock. Here's how we close the gap.

Never miss a call: your 24/7 front desk

A 24/7 virtual receptionist answers every call to your business, day or night, in English or French. It greets the caller, answers common questions, captures the details, and books the appointment straight into your calendar. No voicemail, no hold music, no second caller lost while you're already on the line.

This matters because the numbers on missed calls are brutal. A 2024 study found only about 37.8% of calls to small businesses are answered by a live person — meaning roughly 62% go unanswered. And those callers rarely try again: about 85% never call back, and roughly 62% simply phone a competitor instead. The first business to respond wins the customer 78% of the time. An always-on front desk puts you first, every time.

Online booking and reminders that fill your calendar

Phone tag costs you bookings. We set up online booking so customers can reserve a slot in seconds — from your website, a Google listing, or a link in a text — and we wire in automatic reminders so they actually show up. Fewer no-shows, fewer back-and-forth messages, more time on the work that pays. Want the bigger picture? Our guide on how to automate your small business walks through the whole flow.

More Google reviews, on autopilot

In a tight local market, your star rating is your reputation. 81% of consumers use Google to read reviews when choosing a local business, and 95% say they're more likely to trust a business with lots of reviews over one with only a few. Our 5-star Review Engine automatically asks happy customers for a review at the right moment, in English or French, and routes any unhappy feedback to you privately first. Over a few weeks, your Google profile starts to look like the busy, trusted shop you already are. See how to get more Google reviews for the playbook.

Automate the busywork

Beyond the phone, a lot of your day is repetitive: texting back missed callers, chasing no-shows, following up on quotes, sending confirmations. We build Business Automation that handles all of it in the background, so the routine stuff runs itself and you only touch the parts that need a human. It's the difference between working in your business and working on it.

The bilingual angle is a genuine local advantage. New Brunswick is Canada's only officially bilingual province, and in 2021 about 320,000 residents — roughly 42% — could hold a conversation in French. A front desk and automations that switch cleanly between English and French mean you never lose a Francophone customer to a language wall — something a generic out-of-province call centre can't promise.

Transparent pricing snapshot

No quotes-on-request games, no per-minute meters. Real, flat pricing you can plan around:

Service	What it does	Price
Website	Fast, modern site built to convert	$1,500 one-time
24/7 Front Desk	Answers every call, books the job (EN/FR)	$497/mo
5-star Review Engine	Auto-requests Google reviews	$199/mo
Social media	Done-for-you posts and presence	$199/mo
Business Automation	Missed-call text-back, reminders, follow-ups	$449/mo
Everything bundle	The whole stack, best value	$999/mo

Most owners take the $999/mo Everything bundle because it packages the front desk, reviews, social and automation together for less than the parts. Not sure what you need?
