Question 1

Our selling window is about six weeks. Does that suit this at all?

Accepted Answer

It is the reason to run it. Almost every agreement you sign this year gets signed between the first cold week and the first storm. In that stretch the calls arrive faster than an office can return them. Mikla answers each one in order, sorts seasonal from per-push, and fills your site walk calendar.

Question 2

Can it tell a seasonal contract from a per-push caller?

Accepted Answer

That is the first question Mikla asks. Seasonal buyers want a fixed price for the winter and a trigger depth. Per-push callers want a rate per visit and usually ring the morning after a storm. Mikla prices each one from your own structure.

Question 3

How does it handle commercial lots differently from driveways?

Accepted Answer

They are two businesses on one phone line. A lot needs a space count, entrances, sidewalks, a salting arrangement, and a named signer. A driveway needs an address, a trigger depth, and somewhere to stack the pile. Mikla runs the two down different paths and never quotes a lot at driveway rates.

Question 4

What does it say about salting and the site record?

Accepted Answer

Mikla says only what you tell it. You set whether salting is included, billed per application, or excluded. You set the depth that triggers a visit. Mikla puts that in writing on the first reply. It logs every push and every application against the site, so the season leaves you a dated record.

Question 5

When a storm is coming, the phone is unanswerable. What then?

Accepted Answer

That is the hour Mikla is worth the most. Forecast calls arrive in a block. Signed accounts ask when the trucks are coming. Neighbors who never signed anything ring too. Mikla answers all of them with your route position and your policy, so your operators keep plowing.

Question 6

Will it take on work we cannot physically service?

Accepted Answer

No. Mikla checks the address against the routes you run and the plow you would send. It asks about steep grades, gravel, low overheads, and where the snow can be stacked. Anything you would not touch gets a polite decline instead of an agreement you break in January.

Question 7

What happens to us in the off season?

Accepted Answer

The phone gets quiet in April, and that is when next winter is lost. Mikla keeps every site on file. It reaches back out to last season accounts before the cold arrives and re-opens the ones that lapsed. Autumn starts with signatures instead of cold calls.

Question 8

Does it work with the dispatch software we already run?

Accepted Answer

Signed sites and booked walks land in the system your operators already open. The space count, the trigger depth, the salting terms, and the stacking notes come with them. Bring your setup to the demo and we will confirm where each record goes.
