Questions tutors ask before signing up
How much does an AI receptionist cost for tutors?
£79 a month including 300 call minutes, then 15p a minute. Setup is £149, waived for the first five founder customers. There is no contract and no per-seat pricing; one price covers every call to your number.
Do tutors have to change their phone number to use Ring Janine?
No. You keep your number and divert it to Janine only when you don't answer, using one dial code that works on every UK network. Callers ring the number on your van, your website and Google, and Janine picks up on ring five if you can't.
What does Janine actually say when someone rings a tutor?
She answers as your business by name, finds out what the caller needs, takes the name and booking details, offers a slot from your real availability, reads the details back and texts the confirmation. The transcript on this page is a genuine call.
Does Janine quote prices for tutors?
Only the prices you give her. She never invents a figure: if something is not on your price list she says the office will confirm and takes a message. Call-out and fixed prices are quoted with what they cover, so a caller never hears a number on its own.
How does Janine handle emergencies for tutors?
Urgent jobs get the nearest slot today. If nobody is free she says so plainly, puts the caller through to your mobile, and if you can't pick up she takes the details and texts you straight away.
Can I hear Janine before I sign up?
Yes. Ring the demo line on 07360 266999, say "tutor" when she asks which business to be, and have a normal conversation. Nothing is stored except the demo transcript.
