About NDLStudios

An Ontario company helping small, independently owned businesses answer every call, follow up every lead and get seen around town.

Who we are

A small business automation company based in Ontario

NDLStudios is based in Ontario, Canada, and works with small, independently owned local businesses. It sets up AI automations that answer your calls, reply to your leads and keep your calendar full. It is also launching NDLS digital displays, screens inside local businesses that show ads for the businesses around them.

The goal is simple: win you more customers and give you back hours in your week, without you having to learn new software.

Why NDLStudios exists

Most small businesses lose customers without knowing it

A call goes unanswered while you are with a client, so the caller books with the next business on the list. A quote never gets a follow up. A happy customer walks out without being asked for a review. None of it shows up on a report, but it adds up to hours every week and real money every month.

Most of these fixes are simpler than they sound. NDLStudios finds where your business is losing time and leads, works out which fixes are worth doing first, and sets them up for you. Nothing gets recommended unless it clearly pays for itself.

What we do

AI automations and local advertising

NDLStudios works in two areas. Use one or both.

  • AI automations for local businesses

    An AI receptionist that answers every call, day or night. A website chatbot trained on your business. Missed call text back, instant replies to new leads, quote follow ups, online booking that syncs with your calendar, a cancellation waitlist, and Google review requests after every job.

  • Digital display advertising in the GTA

    NDLS displays sit inside local businesses and show ads for the businesses around them. Each screen has four to six ad spots that rotate every few minutes. Take one spot or the whole display, or host a display for free and get advertised on another one. Launching first in the Greater Toronto Area.

Who we work with

Made for the businesses on your main street

Barbershops, salons, cafes, clinics, gyms, studios, and trades like plumbing, landscaping and auto repair. If your customers call, book or walk in, there are usually hours and leads to win back.

The automations are not tied to one city. The NDLS displays start in the GTA, and businesses elsewhere in Ontario can get in touch about bringing displays to their area.

How we work

Find the right fixes first, then set them up

  • Start with an assessment

    The free assessment takes about 6 minutes online. The full assessment is one call and a written report with every fix mapped out.

  • Only what pays for itself

    Every fix comes with its setup price and projected savings, so you can see what it is worth before you spend anything.

  • Set up for you

    NDLStudios sets everything up on your number, your calendar and your website, and tests it before it goes live.

  • No obligations

    Take the report and decide. If you took the full assessment, the $499 comes off the price when you go ahead.
