- Avery works with your own phone number from day one. Texts open in your Messages, calls open your dialer, and nothing changes for your clients.
- There's one catch. Avery (and the rest of your team) can't see what happens on your personal phone. She doesn't know if Maya wrote back, so before the next follow-up, she has to ask you.
- A team number changes that. It's one business line for your whole team, so a lead never depends on which of you they happen to save.
- Texts go out right from the app, and Avery can even send them on her own.
- Calls can ring the whole team, round-robin, or you can even set up your own phone tree. If nobody picks up, Avery will! Turn on call recording, and Avery remembers the details from every call for you.
- Setup is quick: pick an area code, and calls work right away. Outbound texting needs a carrier registration, which can take a few days to a few weeks, and the app walks you through it.
- Each contact remembers which number it uses, so your old clients will still reach you seamlessly.
- So which one? Start with your own number. Avery's useful from day one. When you want Avery to help you proactively, add a team number. Then Avery keeps herself up to date, and remembers what you promised on that call from the car, so you don't have to.
You don't need a new number to start.
Your own number
Texts open in Messages and calls open your phone's dialer, so nothing changes for your clients. The catch: Avery can't see what happens on your personal phone, so before the next follow-up she asks you how it went. On an iPhone, you can send the texts you get to AveryIQ so Avery sees your clients' replies.
A team number
One business line for your whole team, so a lead never depends on which of you they saved. Texts go out from the app and replies come back to it, so Avery sees the whole conversation. Calls can ring the whole team, round-robin or a phone tree. If nobody picks up and you've turned it on, Avery answers, says she's an AI assistant and takes a message.
Turn on call recording and Avery remembers what was said. AveryIQ doesn't announce recording, so tell your callers.
Set one up
Tap More, then Settings, then Team number, and pick an area code. Calls work right away. Texting needs a carrier registration, which can take a few days to a few weeks; the app walks you through it.
Each contact remembers which number they use, so past clients still reach you the way they always have.
