  • Phone number for incoming support calls
  • Web widget on help center and product pages
  • Outbound campaign for proactive check-ins with customers
The agent has the same knowledge, personality, and capabilities - but introduces itself appropriately based on the channel. Example: Sales Agent
  • Outbound campaign for lead qualification
  • Phone number for inbound callbacks from interested leads
  • Web widget on pricing page to capture high-intent visitors
