 Conditional Checks Template

  1. Replied? - Since an SMS is being sent immediately, this conditional node checks to see if they responded to the message within 30 seconds.
    Condition: Regal Voice Event - sms.received EXISTS AND created_at IS ON OR AFTER now-30s

  2. Called? - If they did respond, since our goal is still to get the lead on the phone with one of our experts, we wait a minute and check to see if an agent called the contact from the SMS.
    Condition: Regal Voice Event - task.reservation.accepted EXISTS AND type_of_task CONTAINS call AND created_at IS ON OR AFTER now-1m30s

  3. Booked? - If the agent did not call, since our ultimate goal is to book the customer, we won't make an unnecessary call if they already booked. 
    Condition: Custom Event - Meeting Booked EXISTS

 

Step 3 - Update the Routing Rules svgviewer-output__4_.svg

To prioritize high intent calls, configure the routing rules as follows:

  1. Navigate to the Routing Rules page.
  2. Create a new rule and ensure that it is below ASAP Callbacks, Scheduled Callbacks, Quiet Hours and Snoozed. (Rules are evaluated in top to bottom order!)
  3. Add a Task Condition with the following Task Expression: campaignInfo.campaignName CONTAINS 'High Intent'
  4. Set the Queue to "Outbound Calls". (If you would like a specific queue for this campaign, please contact us)
  5. If you don't want to prioritize certain agents over others, set Qualifying Agent(s) to "Any Agent in Queue". Do not skip the step timeout.
  6. Set the rule's priority to a higher level than other outbound call rules, but below the ASAP Callbacks and Scheduled Callbacks. (You always want to ensure that inbound calls are returned and scheduled commitments are met!)
  7. Save the routing rule.

By following these steps, you will ensure that high intent leads are engaged immediately through SMS and call campaigns. The routing rules will prioritize these leads, ensuring they receive prompt attention from your sales team!
