5 Advantages of Integrating your Chatbot with Google Calendar
In addition to having the 2 for 1 combo, as the chatbot has several other functions in addition to scheduling meetings via Google Calendar, you can count on other benefits, such as:
Faster pre-sales process
As I said above, the chatbot goes far beyond scheduling meetings.
In fact, chatbots aimed at sales and marketing act as automatic SDRs , meaning that initial contact will be made automatically, quickly, personalized and interactively by the tool, saving time.
From the first contact, the main data will already be captured , so when the lead arrives at the meeting with the seller, the latter will already have the necessary information to proceed with the pre-sale. With this, you will notice an optimization of time , in addition to strengthening the relationship with the customer, as the employee will arrive even more prepared.
No more wasting time negotiating with the lead the best time for a meeting or even whether they want to go to that stage, with the chatbot you can do all this automatically and assertively!
Greater team productivity
By removing the demands of collecting information, qualifying leads and negotiating the best meeting time, you will be freeing up space in your team’s routine .
This way, your team will be free to work on more urgent demands that require greater attention.
Think that you will be freeing your employee from manual, tedious work that can be automated, while maintaining the same – and even better – quality.
Meetings with only the most qualified leads
Using the chatbot, you can create flows with careful conditions that guide and segment leads according to the answers given .
In other words, you will have a points system, lead scoring, which will qualify your leads and filter those who should or should not proceed in the meeting scheduling stage .
This way, only those most qualified (defined by you) will go for a chat with your sales team.
Leads automatically distributed to sales representatives
Which salesperson will be responsible for the sales meeting with the customer?
This question can be answered for yourself by taking Leadster’s free 14-day trial.
With our sales chatbot you personalize the flow and segment which leads to distribute to each sales representative , all of this automatically and characterized for each situation.
This way, you have a perfect match between the sales lead and the ideal salesperson , according to the responses collected.
Shortened sales cycle
You can now say goodbye to the step of contacting the lead manually, in addition to wasting time negotiating a meeting .
By integrating the chatbot with Google Calendar, you will have this sales cycle process automated and fully functioning without the need for human intervention.
How Contraktor Increased Team Productivity and Closed More Sales with Meeting Scheduling Function
Contraktor is a digital signature and contract and document management startup that faced the same challenge as many other B2B companies: pre-sales .
Using Leadster since 2021 to generate more conversions, the company found itself with many leads, but little time and employees to serve all users , taking time to give the necessary attention and directly impacting results.
“[The pre-sales area] is a challenge, it is always difficult to talk [to the lead], even if in our case the leads are raising their hands, asking to be approached, it is still difficult, and the longer it takes us to talking to him, worse” , explained Rafael Salomão, the company’s sales and customer success manager.
Seeing this situation, Leadster indicated the new functionality: automatic scheduling of meetings which, as you already know, is integrated with Google Calendar. 😁
To test the effectiveness of this function, Contraktor analyzed, for 30 days, its number of leads, meeting scheduling, sales conversion rate and final result.
See below the pre and post integration period of the chatbot with Calendar:
Not stopping with this first test, the startup compared sales leads who chose to schedule a meeting directly through Leadster and those who continued to the end of the flow without scheduling an appointment , to be approached later by the pre-sales team.
Check out the results ( spoiler alert: they are positive):
After this combination of good results proven by the test, Contraktor continued with the contracting of the functionality.
And now the team has more time to focus on other big projects, like outbound marketing .
“(…) by making routines easier, we end up having more time to focus on these other projects. Therefore, [the Leadster tool] brought more productivity to our work routine. (…) Sometimes it took us 3 to 4 days to speak to a lead after he raised his hand, now it’s faster, the same day or, at most, the next day. This point played an important role in the closure” , concluded Rafael.
