Sales Dialer Related

Regular Sales Dialer lets you make automated calls from your uploaded file or from your contact list in the Bling CRM. When the call is connected, it will ring at your team's end and then they can answer the call. You can add multiple users to your Sales Dialing Campaigns.

AI Sales Dialer is more advanced. Basically, we train a fully conversational human-like AI specific for your business, there is a proper onboarding form for it. What this AI does is when a call gets connected, the AI takes care of the repetitive tasks for your team such as asking qualifying questions - for example, "Are you still interested in moving forward with the loan application you had submitted with us?" - if the lead is qualified, the call is then immediately transferred to one of your team members who is assigned on those campaigns. This saves at least 2-3 mins per connected call for your team so that they can focus on other important stuff. Plus our AI can of course handle all the rejections or harassment which your team otherwise has to go. The AI Can even do an auto disposition of the call as DNC if the caller wants it to be.
