The Problem

Inbound calls go unanswered. Sales reps spend hours on unqualified leads. After-hours calls become voicemails that never get followed up. You're losing 30-40% of potential leads because no one picks up the phone.

How It Works

Technical architecture overview

AI voice agent answers all inbound calls 24/7. Asks qualifying questions based on your criteria (budget, timeline, authority). Schedules demos with qualified leads directly on sales calendar. Routes hot leads to humans immediately. Logs everything in CRM with call transcripts and scores.

Key Features

What makes this solution powerful

Smart Lead Qualification

AI asks the right questions: budget range, timeline, decision-maker status, pain points. Scores leads as hot/warm/cold based on your criteria.

Instant Hot Lead Transfer

When AI identifies a hot lead (high budget, ready to buy, decision-maker), it transfers immediately to available sales rep with context. No waiting.

Automatic Demo Scheduling

Qualified leads get demo booked directly on sales calendar. AI handles scheduling, sends confirmations, adds to CRM with meeting notes.

CRM Auto-Sync

Every call creates a lead record with transcript, qualification answers, lead score, and next steps. Sales team gets warm leads ready to close.

Implementation Timeline

Step-by-step deployment process

Week 1: Define qualification criteria (budget, timeline, authority, need). Map call flow and decision trees. Train AI on your product and common objections.

Week 2-3: Build integrations (CRM, calendar, phone system). Test call flows with edge cases. Set up lead scoring logic and routing rules.

Week 4: Beta launch on secondary phone number. Monitor quality and conversion rates. Refine qualification questions. Switch main line to AI.

Common Pitfalls

Learn from our experience

Don't: Make the qualification script too long. Keep it under 3 minutes or prospects hang up.

Don't: Transfer every lead to sales immediately. Sales teams get overwhelmed. Only transfer hot leads; schedule demos for warm leads.

Don't: Skip CRM integration. Manual data entry defeats the purpose of automation.

Don't: Use the same script for all lead sources. Web leads need different questions than cold calls or referrals.

Technical FAQs

Won't prospects be annoyed talking to AI?

Data shows 80% of prospects don't care if they're talking to AI, as long as their question gets answered. The alternative is voicemail or no answer. AI is better. For prospects who insist on humans, instant transfer is available.

How does it handle objections or tricky questions?

AI is trained on your product, competitors, and common objections. For unexpected questions, it takes a note and promises a callback from specialist. The goal isn't to close deals - it's to qualify and route leads efficiently.

Can it tell when someone is ready to buy NOW?

Yes. Through sentiment analysis and keyword detection. If prospect says 'I need this today' or 'I have budget approved', AI flags as HOT and transfers immediately to sales. No qualified buyer sits in a queue.

What about data privacy and call recording consent?

Built-in compliance. AI announces call recording at start (required in most jurisdictions). All data stored securely. GDPR/CCPA compliant. Custom retention policies available.

How much does it cost per lead?

Running costs are $200-400/month (voice AI API, Twilio, CRM sync). If you handle 500 calls/month, that's less than $1 per lead. Compare to $50-100 per lead for traditional lead gen services.
