Most agency services (SEO, ads, social media, web design) require ongoing work for each client. AI receptionist is fundamentally different—and that's what makes it so profitable.
The key insight: AI receptionist isn't competing for your team's time. Adding 20 AI receptionist clients doesn't require hiring anyone or taking on more work. It's pure incremental revenue on top of your existing business.
Your existing clients already trust you. That's your superpower. Here's how to introduce AI voice services in a way that feels like a natural extension of your relationship:
""We're driving more leads to your business, but I noticed you miss quite a few calls. What if I could guarantee every lead gets answered, 24/7, and booked on your calendar? It would make our marketing work even harder for you.""
""Your new website is generating calls, which is great. But are you catching all of them? I can add an AI receptionist that answers instantly and captures every lead—so your website investment actually converts.""
""We've got you ranking for high-intent keywords. But when someone calls from a Google search, who answers? If it goes to voicemail, they're calling your competitor next. Let me show you how we can fix that.""
""Your social presence is driving awareness, but what happens when someone actually calls? AI receptionist ensures every inquiry gets a professional response, even at 10pm when they see your post.""

Subject: Quick idea to capture more leads from [your service]
Hi [Name],
I've been thinking about how to help you get even more from the [marketing/website/SEO] work we're doing together.
One thing I've noticed across my clients: about 30% of phone calls go unanswered, especially after hours and during busy periods. That's potential revenue walking away.
I'm now offering AI-powered call coverage as an add-on service. Here's what it does:
• Answers every call instantly, 24/7
• Captures caller info and reason for calling
• Can answer questions about your services
• Books appointments directly on your calendar
• Sends you a text summary after each call
It's $[149-199]/month and takes about 5 minutes to set up.
Would you like me to set up a demo so you can call and test it yourself? I can have it ready for [Business Name] by tomorrow.
[Your name]
P.S. - This pairs really well with the [service] we're already doing. Means no lead falls through the cracks.
Pro tip: Send this to your 10 best clients first. Get a few wins, collect testimonials, then roll out to your full list.

❌ ""I already have staff answering phones""
✓ Great—this isn't about replacing them. It's about covering the times they can't: after hours, lunch breaks, weekends, sick days. Think of it as backup that never calls in sick.
❌ ""My customers want to talk to a real person""
✓ Totally understand. Here's the thing: 85% of callers who hit voicemail never call back. They'd rather talk to helpful AI than leave a message that might not get returned. Plus, urgent calls can transfer to your cell.
❌ ""$179/month is a lot for answering calls""
✓ Let me flip that: how much does a missed call cost you? If even one $500 job walks because no one answered, that's 3 months of the service. Most businesses miss 10-20 calls a month.
❌ ""I need to think about it""
✓ Of course. How about this—let me set up a demo number you can call yourself. Test it out, see how it handles your questions. Takes 5 minutes and there's no commitment.
Upload logo, configure branding, connect Stripe. Takes 30-60 minutes.
Set up a demo business so clients can call and experience the AI firsthand.
Pick clients who miss calls, have high call volume, or would benefit most.
Email or call your top 10. Use the templates above. Offer demos.
Let them call your demo line. Show the dashboard. Handle objections.
Set up their AI receptionist. 5 minutes each. Celebrate your new MRR.
No—it complements them. AI receptionist makes your marketing, SEO, and web services MORE valuable by ensuring leads convert. Clients see better results from everything you do, which increases retention and referrals.
The platform handles most support automatically. For edge cases, you can adjust settings or reach out to platform support. In practice, agencies report spending less than 1 hour/month on AI receptionist support across all clients.
Both work. Some agencies add it to packages at a small premium. Others offer it standalone to clients who only need call coverage. Test both and see what your market prefers.
Not at all. The platform handles the AI complexity. You just need to understand the value proposition—which you already do if you understand marketing and lead conversion.
Churn is low (3-5% monthly) because the value is obvious and immediate. Clients see their missed calls captured. That said, some will cancel—that's normal. Keep your sales pipeline active.
