How much does a missed call cost a business?
It depends on your call volume and what a new customer is worth, but the loss adds up fast: studies find businesses miss 30–60% of inbound calls, and around 85% of callers who reach voicemail never call back — they call a competitor instead. For a contractor, a single missed call can mean roughly $1,200 in lost work; for a dental practice, a new patient can be worth thousands. Use the calculator above to estimate your own number.
How does this calculator work?
It multiplies your weekly call volume by the share of calls you miss, the share of those that are new-customer opportunities, and your average new-customer value — then applies the widely-cited figure that about 85% of callers who hit voicemail never call back. Every input is yours to adjust, so the estimate reflects your real business.
How do I stop losing money to missed calls?
Answer every call. An AI receptionist like Ansio picks up 24/7 — nights, weekends, and during your busiest rush — books the appointment, routes urgent calls, and texts the caller back, so the revenue that used to walk out the door gets captured instead.
Is the calculator free?
Yes, completely free and no signup required. Adjust the inputs to model your business and see the annual revenue at risk.
