01 The Problem
Local service businesses (lawn care, HVAC, snow removal) often miss revenue opportunities because they react to weather after the fact instead of proactively reaching out to customers.
02 What I Built
- Built weather monitoring system that tracks forecasts for specific service areas
- Integrated OpenAI for generating personalized, context-aware message copy
- Implemented customer segmentation based on service history and preferences
- Created SMS dispatch system with Twilio integration
- Designed response handling for customer replies
03 Key Technical Decisions
AI generates messages that feel personal, not spammy—references specific weather conditions and past services
Built with small businesses in mind: simple setup, minimal configuration required
04 Results
MVP in final development stages
First pilot customer: local lawn care business
05 What's Next
- Launch pilot with Zimmies Lawn & Landscape
- Add support for multiple business types (HVAC, cleaning, etc.)
- Build simple dashboard for business owners to manage campaigns
