Speed-to-Lead Follow-Up Calls Built for Counseling Practices

{"faqs":[{"answer":"Speed-to-Lead Follow-Up Calls place calls to new leads within minutes inside your approved calling windows. Inquiries that arrive after hours are queued and called first thing the next business day, so no lead sits untouched for days.","question":"How fast are new counseling inquiries actually called back?"},{"answer":"Clinic campaigns run under HIPAA-compliant communication standards, data is never shared or sold and is not used to train shared models, and recording is optional and only with disclosure and consent. Note that campaign requirements vary by location, industry, contact type, consent status, and technology — clients are responsible for obtaining appropriate legal guidance before launch.","question":"Is this HIPAA-compliant for a therapy or counseling practice?"},{"answer":"The campaign is scoped around one clear goal — typically confirming the inquiry, qualifying the lead, and routing the conversation to your team. Hot leads transfer to your team live or land in your CRM, so detailed insurance and cost conversations go to a human on your staff, exactly as you approve in the escalation path.","question":"Can the AI answer insurance and cost questions from first-time therapy seekers?"},{"answer":"It starts with a free campaign review where we define the goal and quote the whole campaign. Then we review your list source and consent records, connect your CRM and scheduling tools, and you approve the script, disclosure, opt-out handling, and escalation path. Calls launch only after your approval, and outcomes are monitored in real time.","question":"What does setup look like, and how long before calls start?"},{"answer":"This is a managed outbound calling service — you buy campaigns that we run for you, with no per-seat charges or platform bill. Calling starts at 9¢ per connected minute, tiered by volume, with the rate locked for the campaign. Unlike indiscriminate cold calling, we only run against approved, permissioned, or reviewed lists, and we tell you plainly if a list won't support the campaign before you spend anything.","question":"How is this different from hiring a front-desk receptionist or using an answering service?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Free Campaign Review","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"Start with one clear goal — 'What do you need the call to accomplish?'
