Missed-Call Text-Back for Boat Dealerships

{"faqs":[{"answer":"When a call goes unanswered — after hours, during peak, or when lines are busy — our system sends an immediate SMS with a link to book a service appointment, request a callback, or ask about parts. The AI qualifies them using your approved scripts (warranty work, outboard repair, winterization) and books directly into your calendar.","question":"How does the text-back work when someone calls our service department after hours?"},{"answer":"Yes. When a lead texts back about a specific unit, the AI captures the Hull ID or serial number and logs it in your CRM alongside the conversation. Your sales team sees the exact boat the customer asked about before they even call back.","question":"Can the AI handle questions about specific boats using Hull IDs or serial numbers?"},{"answer":"All business texting is registered under A2P 10DLC carrier rules. Consent is collected explicitly during the booking flow, telemarketing quiet-hours laws are followed, and opt-out is honored immediately and automatically. No messages send without proper registration.","question":"Is this compliant with marine industry texting regulations and carrier rules?"},{"answer":"A free 15-minute scoping call determines the plan. Full setup — connecting lines, configuring rules, integrating with your marine CRM and calendar — typically completes within 3-5 business days. We handle the technical integration; you approve the scripts.","question":"How long does setup take for a dealership with multiple phone lines and a marine CRM?"},{"answer":"Answering services take messages. We qualify leads, book appointments, and nurture until booked. Every interaction is tracked from source to outcome in your CRM. Pricing is per-minute with no seats — you only pay for actual lead handling, not idle time. Spam and robocalls are never billed.","question":"What makes this different from the answering service we used during boat shows?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Connect Your Lines","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"Forward your main number, service line, and sales extensions.
