What are the steps?
Missed-Call Recovery Triage (Onboarding)
- 01
Pull 30 days of call logs and separate answered, abandoned, and after-hours buckets
Export from the client's phone system or PBX before touching any voice platform. Tag each missed call with timestamp, caller number, and whether a voicemail was left.
- 02
Calculate the recoverable call volume and its dollar value
Multiply missed calls by the client's stated close rate and average job value. A service business missing 40 calls a month at a 25 percent close rate and $600 average ticket is leaving roughly $6,000 on the table.
- 03
Confirm consent and recording rules for outbound follow-up in the client's jurisdiction
Two-party consent states require disclosure before any automated callback. Document the rule set in writing and get the client to sign off before a single outbound call fires.
- 04
Map the handoff rule for calls the agent cannot close
Define the exact conditions that trigger a live transfer (high-value job type, caller requests a human, three failed intent matches) and name the person or queue that receives it.
- 05
Select a deployment path that matches the client's technical capacity
White-label platforms such as Autocalls or ConvoCore suit agencies reselling under their own brand, while Goodcall or Dialzara fit clients who want a working agent without engineering time.
- 06
Run a two-week shadow period where the agent logs intent without dialing out
Compare the agent's classification of each missed call against what the client's staff would have done. Fix misclassifications before the agent speaks to a real caller.
- 07
Set the escalation accuracy threshold that gates go-live
Agree on a number, for example 90 percent correct routing across 50 test calls, and hold the launch until the agent clears it. Below that line, the client's staff spend more time correcting than the agent saves.
