The problem it solves

New leads message you on WhatsApp at all hours, and if you don't reply fast, they move on to a competitor. Sorting serious buyers from casual questions and getting them onto your calendar takes constant attention you don't always have.

Who it fits

Sales teams, agencies, or small businesses that get leads through WhatsApp.

How it works

  1. A new WhatsApp message comes in from a potential customer
  2. AI reads the message and sorts it as a hot lead, warm lead, support request, or unclear
  3. Hot and warm leads get an instant reply, a calendar meeting booked with a video link, and a spreadsheet log entry
  4. Support requests are logged and receive a confirmation reply
  5. Unclear messages trigger a smart follow-up question so no lead is lost
What you get

WhatsApp leads sorted and greeted the moment they message

You get every WhatsApp message answered instantly, labeled as a lead, and a meeting booked when the fit looks strong.

What you get

Instant WhatsApp replies, a lead log in Google Sheets, and booked calendar meetings for qualified leads.

What you need

A WhatsApp Business account, a Google Workspace account (Sheets and Calendar), and an AI service.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
