Lead Qualification & Scoring for Boat Dealerships

{"faqs":[{"answer":"Yes. You provide approved FAQs and scripts during setup. The AI answers only what you've approved — specs, financing basics, warranty overviews, service packages — and routes technical deep-dives to your sales or service team.","question":"Can the AI handle technical questions about outboard motors, hull types, or warranty coverage?"},{"answer":"You define the scoring criteria: budget threshold, purchase timeline, trade-in equity, financing pre-approval status, and boat category. Leads hitting your score go straight to your calendar; others enter nurture with model-specific follow-up.","question":"How does lead scoring work for high-ticket purchases like wake boats or luxury pontoons?"},{"answer":"Yes. Every lead source — website forms, ad clicks, phone lines, chat widgets, referral emails, boat show sign-up sheets — connects to one response system. Each source is tracked separately so you see which channels deliver buyers.","question":"We get leads from boat shows, our website, and third-party sites like Boat Trader. Can you handle all of them?"},{"answer":"One 15-minute scoping call determines scope. Most dealerships are live within 3–5 business days: lead sources connected, qualification rules configured, CRM and calendar integrated, and test leads verified.","question":"What's the typical setup timeline for a dealership with multiple locations?"},{"answer":"A BDC costs $60K+/year per person and doesn't cover 24/7. Generic chatbots can't qualify on your specific criteria or book on your calendar. CallMyLeads is done-for-you, per-minute pricing, full qualification and booking, compliant texting, and your data stays yours.","question":"How is this different from hiring a BDC or using a generic chatbot?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Connect Your Lead Sources","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"Website forms, boat show sign-ups, phone lines, chat, referral sources joined to one response system in a 15-minute scoping call."},{"step":"2","title":"Set Your Qualification Rules","gradient":"from-yellow-500 to-orange-500","description":"Define first message, qualifying questions (budget, boat type, timeline, trade-in, financing), scoring thresholds, and when to route to sales."},{"step":"3","title":"Leads Get Instant Response & Book","gradient":"from-green-500 to-emerald-500","description":"Every inquiry answered in seconds.
