Growth Metrics Over 18 Months
The Challenge
When Ryan Mitchell started Summit Field Services in 2019, he handled everything himself. By 2022, with 4 trucks, his wife Sarah was drowning in office work. Scheduling was manual, customers called during busy periods and got voicemail, invoices were delayed 3-5 days, and there was no system for preventive maintenance follow-ups.
They hit a wall - every time Ryan wanted to add a truck, the office workload required another person. Another $40-50K in salary felt like it would eat all their profit.
The Solution
They built an automation infrastructure: AI phone agent for 24/7 call handling, visual scheduling with route optimization, CRM for job pipeline tracking, automated invoicing, maintenance programs, and review generation.

What Ryan Said
"We have gone from $400K to $2.4M with the same office team. The automation handles the volume and Sarah focuses on the exceptions and relationship-building that actually matters."
