(1-5 of 5)- Providing 1:1 email outreach to a large quantity of leads which our organization is unable to do on our own in a timely manner.
- Confirms specific contact phone numbers while scheduling a call for our sales department.
- Opens up new conversations with older leads in our database that have gone cold.
- The AI software that reads the replies from our leads is not perfect. I need the ability to update and change the lead status when I discover these mistakes for accurate reporting and follow up.
- The ability to stop a conversation as a manager is only available from one screen. I would love if they could move this to the main dashboard too.
- In reporting I would like to see the date and time of last message sent, last reply received, and next message scheduled all next to each other.
- The import to Salesforce campaigns is nice but the upload of new data from conversica to Salesforce (like lead status and phone number) has to be manually done.
- No more leads slipping through the cracks. Everyone gets contacted soon after they engage with our content.
- We can now more accurately determine the interest level of all our leads and place them in the proper section of our sales funnel.
- We are starting more conversation in less time and have closed new business that originated from Conversica outreach.
- Event follow up after we meet someone at a trade show or conference or if they attend a webinar.
- Old lead reactivation for those qualified leads who we have not heard from for over 90 days.
- Content download follow up after someone downloads an ebook or white paper from our website.
- We've been able to clean up out database and eliminate all unqualified contacts quickly.
- In the future we will consider using Conversica for cold outreach prospecting.
Conversica is a Great Additional to a Sales Team
- Follows Up - While some customers get annoyed at multiple emails, the majority seem to like the follow up reminders.
- Changing Names - if a lead we enter has a different name, Conversica automatically updates it in the system.
- Ease of Use - the system is very easy to use and navigate.
- I would like to see a more flexible messaging option.
- Conversica has allowed our sales team to bring in more revenue by sending us quality leads to follow up with and sorting out the weaker ones.
- Lead follow up
- Prioritizing the sales team's time
- Lead tracking and engagement
- N/A - we use it pretty standard for lead follow up we otherwise wouldn't prioritize engagement in.
- We can use Conversica for winback campaigns, information campaigns if we release a new product, etc.

Great Product from a Great Company!
- The AI assistant starts sending short, personalized emails to latent leads in drip format that allows the system to test and adjust the frequency and message structure. As it learns, it increases frequency according to the leads’ behavior.
- The AI assistant is able to bridge the gap between Enrollment Advisor and potential student by providing none promotional that provides a soft touch point for reengagement.
- Conversica is able to rate leads based on behavior and ensure each potential student gets everything they needed.
- We would like to see functionality to customize how many times a single lead will be emailed in its lifespan. Being that there are sometimes unique instances this option would be beneficial.
- Reporting is very static with no real opportunity for customization.
- Appointment-setting (for calls or meetings) that synchs live with the user's calendar, to reduce the user's time coordinating the timing.
We don't want Conversica to take the place of our Enrollment Advisors, therefore we don't wish for Conversica to provide promotional messaging that will act as another marketing channel.
- We have seen a positive ROI for Conversica with our latent leads.
- Re-engaging with latent leads.
- Following up with leads in multiple statuses.
- Connecting a lead with an Enrollment Advisor to answer additional questions.
- We have been able to learn more about the power of frequency and personalization.
- We would like Conversica used to qualify new leads.
- When Converisca reaches out to prospects the message look like a rep actually constructed these messages instead of looking like a marketing generated HTML email
- Never gets discouraged from no responses from prospects
- Daily alerts to keep responsible reps in line with Hot, Reviewable or At Risk Leads
- Never stops working
- It took use roughly a month to get our assistant to learn our prospect's response language to correct mark the lead as Hot or to be Reviewed. This was enforced by our sales manager for reps to provide feedback to the tool.
- When we were first on boarded we would have to reach out to our CSM to set up conversations for Conversica to have with our prospects. Since then we've been included in their Beta version for us to have full control of the conversation making our team quicker at getting these turned around and built into the marketing person's checklist of items to be completed before starting a new campaign.
1. Lead agrees to talk to a sales rep
2. Lead just never responds
3. Lead asks to not be contacted
When #1 happens our rep jumps on this lead and treats it as if it is an MQL now. If #2 happens we then throw this lead into a marketing automation nurture program for roughly 45 days then throw it back into Conversica's queue as a re-engagement follow up. If #3 happens we at least tried to engage this lead.
- Outreach to top of funnel leads
- Checks and balance of rep follow up on hot leads
- Reviving of leads or lost opps where the prospect stop responding to a rep
- Outreach out to low quality or top of funnel leads
- Reviving old MQLs who stop responding to our account executives
- Upsell outreach to fill potential upsells for team
- We sell primarily to non-profit organizations. When we get inbound demo requests we are thinking about having Conversica reach out to all non dot org email addresses before passing along to account executives
- Implemented in-house
- There honestly weren't any
