AI Reception Setup

Deploy your white-labeled AI phone system to a contractor's business. Calls come in, the AI greets them and captures their information, then routes to the contractor.

Before Setup
  • Contractor has approved the AI reception feature (part of full-service or upsell from rank-and-rent)
  • You have assigned a phone number from your pool (or obtained a new one)
  • Contractor has provided: their business name, greeting preference, callback instructions
Setup Steps

1. Phone Number Assignment (15 min, you)

  • Assign or provision a new phone number for this contractor
  • Forward the number to your AI reception system (Twilio, your custom worker, or SaaS provider)
  • Test: call the number to confirm it rings through to the system

2. AI Configuration (30 min, you)

  • Contractor greeting: "Hi, you've reached [Contractor Name] striping and sealing. Our team is on another call. Can you please tell me your name, phone number, and what service you are interested in?"
  • Fallback options: "Press 1 to schedule a callback," "Press 2 to leave a voicemail"
  • Voicemail: "Thanks for calling. We will get back to you within 2 hours on weekdays."
  • Callback hours: Monday-Friday 8am-5pm (or contractor's hours)

3. Contractor Training (15 min call or email)

  • Explain: callers will hear the AI greeting, the AI will collect info, and you will get a summary within 5 minutes
  • Show them an example transcript: "Name: John Smith, Phone: 555-1234, Service: Parking Lot Sealing, Callback Requested: Yes"
  • Test call: have the contractor make a test call and confirm they got the notification
  • Action: "Review the first 3 calls tomorrow and let me know if the greeting feels right"

4. Integration (30 min, you)

  • Connect the AI system to your CRM so leads auto-populate
  • Create a filter: AI calls show in a separate folder so contractor (or you) can review them quickly
  • Set up notifications: contractor gets SMS/email for urgent calls, or a daily digest

5. Live Deployment (Ongoing)

  • Day 1-7: Monitor call quality. Check that AI is capturing info accurately and contractor is responding quickly.
  • End of week: Call contractor: "How are the calls coming through? Any issues?"
  • Issue examples: AI not capturing names clearly (adjust mic sensitivity), contractor not getting alerts (check notification settings), callback hours not working (fix timezone issue)

6. Optimization (Ongoing)

  • After 2 weeks, analyze call transcripts:
  • Are callers confused by the greeting? Adjust wording.
  • Are callers hanging up before leaving info? Shorten the greeting.
  • Are callbacks happening fast enough? Coach contractor or adjust your response process.
