System Summary

The Problem

Generic automated replies feel robotic and impersonal, but taking 20 minutes to read long inquiry notes and write custom replies by hand creates serious response delays.

The System

Bigin Premier with Zia (or Claude/ChatGPT connected via API/MCP) parses incoming inquiry text, extracts project details, scores intent, and drafts a tailored personal reply. The rep reviews the draft in 15 seconds and clicks send.

Why this version

Combines the speed of an instant auto-responder with the high conversion rate of a thoughtful, bespoke personal reply.

Before You Start

  • โ†’ Confirm Bigin Premier or Bigin 360 subscription with active Zia credits
  • โ†’ Define your standard service offerings, pricing baselines, and calendar links
  • โ†’ Test sample AI reply outputs on 5 mock inquiries to refine tone

5

Automated 2-day reminder timer engages if no booking occurs

If the prospect does not book a call within 48 hours, a gentle follow-up task is scheduled automatically.

  • โ€บ Workflow monitors booking calendar for confirmed appointment
  • โ€บ If no appointment is booked within 48 hours, a follow-up nudge task triggers for the rep

What not building this costs you

Sending canned, generic auto-replies to high-value inquiries often causes sophisticated clients to look elsewhere.

๐Ÿชค

The catch: be aware

Zia monthly credits are capped (1,000 on Premier, 3,000 on 360). AI drafts the message, but a human must review and confirm before committing custom pricing or project deliverables.
