Overview

Lead qualification allows admins to use AI assistants to interact with potential customers by asking predefined questions based on triggers. The AI assistant collects data, assesses lead quality, and organizes leads for further action. By setting up lead qualification, admins can focus on high-potential leads while reducing repetitive tasks.

Benefits of Lead Qualification

  1. Efficient Lead Segmentation: Automatically qualify leads based on tailored criteria, such as industry or company size.
  2. Improved Customer Experience: AI assistants remember previous interactions to avoid redundant questions.
  3. Streamlined Campaigns: Use qualified leads to target specific audiences for outbound campaigns.
  4. Data Management: Centralized access to customer responses and lead qualification details.

Steps to Set Up Lead Qualification

1. Access the Actions Tab

Lead Qualification Setup

  1. On the left sidebar, click on Actions.
  2. Select the Lead Qualification card to open the configuration options.

Important Notes:

  • Lead Qualification integrates with CRMs like HubSpot.
  • If HubSpot is enabled but not connected, a warning modal will pop up, prompting you to connect your HubSpot account.
  • You can choose to skip the connection at that moment.

How to Connect HubSpot:

  • Navigate to Account Settings > Integration > HubSpot and click on Connect to link your HubSpot account.
  • Alternatively, you can connect directly from the warning modal that appears in Actions > Lead Qualification.

2. Create a New Lead Qualification

3. Configure the Action

Fill in the form fields:

  • Name: Input the lead qualification name (e.g., “Enterprise Leads”).
