Customer Onboarding Check-In Calls for Plumbing Supply Distributors

{"faqs":[{"answer":"One clear goal per campaign — typically confirming the account is set up correctly, answering early questions about delivery or Net terms, and flagging anyone who needs a human follow-up. We scope the outcome with you, quote the whole campaign before launch, and route follow-up requests back to your team.","question":"What should a day-7 onboarding check-in call accomplish for a new contractor account?"},{"answer":"Yes, provided the consent records support it. AI-generated voices are treated as artificial voices under the TCPA, so prior express consent is required. We review your list source and consent records before any campaign launches, and we'll tell you plainly if the list will not support the campaign — before you spend anything.","question":"Can you call contractors on our Net 30-90 terms without violating TCPA rules?"},{"answer":"AI disclosure happens on every call — recipients can ask if the call is AI-assisted, request a human, or opt out. Keyword opt-outs like STOP and REVOKE are honored immediately, DNC requests are respected across all campaigns and carried into your DNC records, and hot follow-ups can transfer to your team live.","question":"How do you handle contractors who don't want AI calls?"},{"answer":"It starts with a free campaign review where we capture your goal, list volume, and consent records. After you approve the script, disclosure, and escalation path, the campaign launches and calls run in approved windows. Most distributors can move from review to launch within a couple of weeks, and the full cost is known before you approve.","question":"How long does it take to launch an onboarding check-in campaign?"},{"answer":"Counter and inside sales teams are already stretched managing recurring invoices, partial shipments, and payment follow-ups. We run the structured day-7 and day-30 check-ins for you at 9¢ per connected minute with no per-seat charges and no platform bill — your team only handles the follow-ups that actually need a human.","question":"Why not just have our counter staff make these calls?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Plan Your Campaign","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"Start with the goal — what should a day-7 or day-30 check-in accomplish for your new contractor accounts?

When manual tracking across hundreds of contractor accounts misses a backordered 2-inch copper fitting or a late ASN, the relationship starts on bad footing.
