Fewer no-shows with WhatsApp reminders powered by ChatGPT
The challenge
Reduce the no-show rate for sales discovery calls
Restaurants.club built its sales funnel around sales discovery calls.
However, the number of no-shows grew, putting sales opportunities and the sales cycle at risk. So Restaurants.club decided to change its strategy.
Goal
Improve communication with leads
Most Restaurants.club prospects prefer to communicate by phone and WhatsApp.
So the brand aimed to make these channels primary, spend less time on manual reminders, reduce first-contact time for leads that come in on weekends or after hours, and keep interactions conversational and human-like.
The solution
Two WhatsApp flows: first-time contacts and reminders
Restaurants.club works with Chatfuel and uses the WhatsApp API with ChatGPT built in. The bot talks to each lead conversationally, tells them about the product, and collects their pain points.
To reach its main goal, the team set up two flows: first-time contacts for new leads, and a set of confirmations and reminders for booked sales calls.
Results
100% lead outreach, a 50%+ open rate, and 30% fewer no-shows
Restaurants.club now reaches 100% of its leads within a minute, with an open rate above 50%.
This personalized communication helps the brand build better relationships with prospects and has cut the no-show rate for sales discovery calls by 30%.
