Customer Onboarding Check-In Calls for Full-Service Restaurants

{"faqs":[{"answer":"We run structured calls at day-7 and day-30 milestones against your approved guest list — typically recent first-time guests from your reservation or loyalty records. Each campaign has one clear goal, such as confirming the guest's experience and routing any issues to your team. The whole campaign is quoted before launch.","question":"How do onboarding check-in calls work for a full-service restaurant?"},{"answer":"Yes, if the list is approved, permissioned, or reviewed. We check list source and consent records before any campaign launches, and calling windows are agreed up front. If the list will not support the campaign, we tell you plainly before you spend anything.","question":"Can I use my reservation or loyalty list for check-in calls?"},{"answer":"AI-generated voices are treated as artificial voices under the TCPA, so prior express consent is required. We honor state-specific quiet hours and day restrictions, include AI disclosure on every call, and log and honor opt-outs immediately. Campaign requirements vary by location and contact type, so we recommend appropriate legal guidance before launch.","question":"Are AI check-in calls compliant with TCPA rules for restaurant guests?"},{"answer":"Most campaigns move through six steps: campaign review, list and consent review, connecting your systems, script and escalation approval, launch and monitoring, and outcome routing. Nothing launches until you approve the script and escalation path, so timing depends on how quickly you sign off — the first campaign review is free.","question":"How long does it take to launch a check-in campaign?"},{"answer":"Labor shortages make it difficult to find and retain staff, and follow-up calls are usually the first task dropped. Our managed service runs the calls for you in approved windows, routes outcomes back into the CRM and scheduling tools you already run, and costs from 9¢ per connected minute with no per-seat charges or platform bill.","question":"Why not just have my staff call new guests instead?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Plan Your Campaign","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"Start with the goal — what should the day-7 and day-30 check-in accomplish?
