Masterclass: Building AI Voice Agents with Full Vapi Integration + GoHighLevel
Welcome to today's masterclass! We'll be focusing on creating a Vapi bot and integrating it to perform specific actions. In this session, we will create three different bots, each with unique functionalities:
Live Transfer Calls to a Sales Team: The first bot is designed to screen inbound leads and transfer the qualified ones to a sales team. This involves setting up Vapi, choosing the right voice, creating the assistant, and integrating tools for seamless call transfers.
Saving Lost Deals: The second bot targets customers who didn't move forward with a previous offer. It follows up with these leads, offering alternative options to potentially save those deals. This involves setting up specific prompts and responses that focus on why the deal didn't close initially and offering new solutions.
Integration for Automated Follow-Ups: The third bot integrates multiple functionalities to ensure all missed opportunities are followed up. This involves using tools like N8N for advanced integrations and creating dynamic prompts tailored to different customer scenarios.
Let's dive deeper into each step and set up our bots.
