Call handling

### What changes in your day.

A caller should not have to guess which number to try next. A call flow gives the conversation a structure: hear a greeting, choose the right service, and connect to the team that handles it.

01

#### Start with a useful greeting

Introduce the business and explain what the caller can do next. Keep the opening short enough that a person with an urgent request can move forward.

02

#### Guide callers with a phone menu

Use keypad choices to separate services or departments. Interactive voice response, often called IVR, is the menu that responds to the caller's selection.

03

#### Review the path before using it

Follow the configured steps and test the branches you expect callers to take. Make sure a wrong choice or unanswered destination still has a considered outcome.

A closer look

### Useful answers before you start.

Explore the workflow above, then bring your own requirements to an early-access
conversation.

Is a phone menu an AI receptionist? +

No. A keypad menu follows the choices and steps you configure. It does not mean an AI agent is holding an open-ended conversation or booking appointments for you.

Should every campaign use a menu? +

No. Some calls are best sent directly to a team. Use a menu when the caller's choice genuinely helps you connect them to the right place.
