Qualify leads and book calls via WhatsApp or voice
A commenter describes cold outreach with Clay and Apollo for enrichment and sequencing, plus tools that qualify leads in conversation, remember past interactions, follow up and book calls.
Done with a custom-built or unnamed agent
- What they did
- In the thread, one commenter says the working setup is AI that talks to leads over WhatsApp or voice, remembers prior interactions, scores interest during the conversation, then automatically follows up or books calls and hands only warm prospects to a person. Another commenter adds a cold-outreach stack of Clay with Apollo for lead enrichment and sequencing, but notes it takes time to configure.
- How it went
- The only concrete result stated is that this approach cuts manual work by 80% and feels more human to customers. The thread does not give conversion, booking, or revenue numbers, and the tooling details stay high level.
- Worth knowing
- The main catch mentioned is setup time: Clay plus Apollo works for enrichment and sequencing, but takes time to configure.
Try it yourself with Lindy
Build an assistant that replies to new leads on [WhatsApp / phone] for my [type of business]. It should ask these qualifying questions: [question 1], [question 2], [question 3], remember earlier conversations with each lead, follow up if they go quiet for [number] days, and book a call on my calendar [link] when they qualify. Hand off to me anything it can't answer, and show me the first few conversations before it goes live.
