A Personal Message From Our Co-Founder, Jason Benedict.
I want to share a story that’s deeply personal and filled with valuable lessons for every entrepreneur who has gone through the heartache of recruiting, hiring, training, managing staff and ultimately firing.
At the beginning of 2024, my wife, Therese, and I decided to hire a salesperson for the first time in our 10-year history as a small business. What followed next was a rollercoaster ride.
Recruiting the right candidate was just the beginning. The real challenge came with the immense investment of time, energy, and resources that followed.
The Rollercoaster Ride of Traditional Sales Hiring:
1. Recruiting and hiring.
2. Endless hours, weeks, and months of personal time spent training our new salesperson.
3. Overhead costs piling up.
4. The relentless cycle of payroll, taxes, and administrative fees.
5. The heartache of watching our dreams collide with the harsh realities of small business challenges.
But despite our best efforts, things didn't pan out as we all had hoped.
Our salesperson struggled to connect with our prospective clients, and at times he even got aggressive on sales calls, after numerous attempts at providing guidance, coaching, sales scripts, and positive reinforcement.
This left us feeling frustrated and defeated. It was a painful realization that forced us to confront the harsh truth—we needed a new approach.
And that's where the story takes an unexpected turn.
In the depths of our despair, we stumbled upon something remarkable—a transformative solution that would revolutionize not just our agency, but the entire industry.
Yep, just when we thought everything seemed to be falling apart, when it seemed like all was lost, innovation struck.
My wife, Therese, and I knew that we were not alone in our frustrations of trying to recruit, hire, and train a qualified salesperson. In fact, many of our clients shared their same desires and frustration with us.
So, Therese and I took a step back and asked ourselves how we can solve this problem?
What if we could find a way to automate the most problematic part of our sales process?
The idea was simple yet revolutionary…
And this is when our personalized Generative AI Agent was born.
Meet Alfred.
Alfred is not just software; he is a revolutionary AI Agent that we built for ourselves that is equipped with the latest cutting-edge generative AI technology.
Alfred can:
Conduct automated calls.
Seamlessly book appointments.
Provide comprehensive customer service.
Sound and act like a real human.
Here's the best part...
On his first day, Alfred generated over $17,500 in sales, far exceeding our expectations.
Best of all it didn't take him 6 months to train.
Not even 6 weeks or even 6 days...
It took him 2 phone calls.
Alfred’s intelligence about our products, services, and our innovative business automation solutions was immediately understood on his first day.
He converted these sales without any hiring, recruiting, or training.
As a busy entrepreneur who is constantly looking for solutions, we didn't want to keep this solution a secret; we wanted to offer this same solution to other business owners who have been needing sales and a long-term solution.
We know what it's like to have sleepless nights worrying about sales targets, the endless cycle of hiring and training, and the constant pressure to grow.
We've been there, and we found our answer and wanted to share it with you.
If you haven’t chatted with Alfred yet, you can do so now by texting
“Alfred” to 602.900.9345 and he will send you a text message with a link to submit your information so he can give you a call within the next few minutes.

Discover the transformative power of our Next-Generation AI Sales Agent designed to revolutionize your business interactions.
A Generative AI Agent is an advanced computer program designed to understand and interact with people in a natural, human-like way. Think of it as a digital assistant that can handle tasks typically done by humans, such as answering customer inquiries, providing product information, and even closing sales.
Start by giving your AI agent a memorable and engaging name. This will help humanize your agent and make interactions more fun and personal for your clients. Choose a name that reflects your brand's personality and values.
Decide on the gender of your AI agent. Whether you choose male, female, or non-binary, this decision can help tailor the voice and tone of the interactions to better resonate with your target audience.
Your AI agent's voice and tone are crucial for creating a positive customer experience. Select from a variety of voice options and decide on a tone that aligns with your brand—be it professional, friendly, or enthusiastic. This ensures your AI agent communicates effectively and leaves a lasting impression.
Craft a detailed personality profile for your AI agent, including preferred phrases, responses, and conversation style. This will ensure consistency in interactions and help the AI agent build rapport with clients. Develop scripts for common scenarios to guide your agent in handling various client queries and booking appointments smoothly.
Provide comprehensive training materials such as brochures, sales sheets, webinars, ebooks about your products and services. The more information your AI Agent has, the better it can assist prospects and answer their questions accurately. Providing this information ensures your AI agent is well-equipped to represent your business effectively.
To enable seamless appointment booking, we’ll integrate your AI Agent with your existing CRM. In order for the AI Agent to work effectively it needs to be provided with a list of names, emails and phone numbers. This allows the agent to manage communications independently, ensuring all client interactions are handled efficiently and professionally.
Tailor the appointment booking process to fit your availability. Set preferences for available time slots, meeting durations, and follow-up reminders. This customization allows your AI agent to manage your calendar effectively and maximize appointment bookings without your involvement.
Once your AI agent is fully equipped and prompted with all of the right information, we’ll launch it to a small list of your prospects to ensure that calls are being triggered, the AI Agent is greeting prospects exactly as we’ve indicated, and its having intelligent conversations that intrigue prospects and encourage them to schedule an appointment with you.
We’ll automate the reporting process so we can gather feedback from prospects to understand their experiences and interactions with your AI agent. We use this data to make further improvements and adjustments. Feedback is invaluable for refining your AI agent’s interactions and ensuring it meets your needs effectively.
We set up systems for your AI agent to learn from every interaction. Utilize deep learning algorithms to continuously improve responses and strategies based on prospect feedback and behavior. Regular updates and feedback loops will keep your AI agent at the top of its game.
Once we have fine-tuned your AI Agent, we will configure it to automatically engage with your lead sources. This ensures seamless follow-up with new leads, webinar attendees, and or past prospects who have gone cold, all operating on autopilot.
We regularly monitor your AI agent’s performance through analytics and reporting tools. We identify areas for improvement and optimize the AI agent’s functionalities to enhance efficiency and client satisfaction. Continuous monitoring ensures your AI agent remains a valuable asset to your business.
Whether you're looking to start small or scale and grow, our advanced Generative AI Agents are designed to seamlessly integrate into your business, providing reliable, around-the-clock support and driving significant improvements in efficiency and customer satisfaction.
