AI bots are on the rise. There’s heaps of ‘em now. So naturally, some peeps ask me if I’m worried? Not one bit! Here’s why. Right at the top of my FB newsfeed, was a post in the GHL community from the owner of a well-known bot building software. He proudly posted a screenshot of a recent conversation his AI bot had. It was then that 2 perfect strangers seemed to climb into my brain, pluck the thought out of my head… …and drop it into the comment box. Stranger 1: “AI bots built by people who don’t know the sales process are AI bots that don’t work” Stranger 2: “Totally agree with this. It’s not enough to know just the tech side of things” Mr Bot Builder got his underpanties in a bunch over this and fired off a few catty comments of his own. Now, this bot was perfectly fine from a ‘tech’ standpoint. But, that’s what catches a lot of people out. Unless a business is a ‘not for profit’ charity… Their number 1 goal is to MAKE SALES! That’s it! Yes, they’ll have other goals. They want a knockout product, great customer service, yada yada. But it’s sales, and sales alone that puts money in the bank. They don’t care about having the ‘fanciest tech’. They don’t even care about AI. They care about whatever’s going to give them the best chance to make the maximum amount of sales, with the least amount of effort and expense. So, which do you think is better for the job? A bot built by a techy? Or a bot built by someone who understands sales, marketing and direct response? You need both! You cannot have ONE without the other. ROYA peeps know this. That’s why our Sleeping Beauty Android and Prince Charming SMS approach is so focused on nurturing the lead and pre-selling the appointment. We pre-sell the appointment better than most sales peeps presell the actual sale itself. When you combine this with top-notch Android’s like the one you have access to… You’re at the front of the pack compared to everything else out there. As more and more bots come onto the market…

Hey guys. So I got 1 client almost signed just confirming the final details on Monday. They where my first demo!. About 2 week turn around since the Demo. But now they are super keen to start asap. But I keep getting the same thing over and over. WHATS THE PRICE.. question literally before I even get on the demo with some of them. And I try explaining its performance based. Which it says everywhere, even in the email or text hand raiser they have replied to 🙄 How best to explain it especially when I know nothing about their volume of leads or what they are selling. How do we go about working it out on the spot or explaining the pricing without them getting pissed, yep I even had 1 hang up on me after he phoned me to ask the price, simply because I couldn’t tell him immediately. Saying I was diverting the question. When I asked ‘what he would be happy to pay’ for a closed deal or booked appointment. Felt like saying ‘how long is a piece of string’. I wonder whether it’s best even to offer these people a monthly subscription pricing upfront as a starting point then discuss commercials later once I know more about their business.? How would you normally approach this, help would be greatly appreciated.

This is coming in hot - straight from our Majorca Mastermind. We covered a lot in 3 days! But, this stood out as a 'holy crap' moment for me. One attendee shared that by the end of this year... He'd be surprised if he wasn't bringing in £1million a MONTH. WTF I know that we're only in June... So a lot could go wrong between now and year-end. And if it were anyone else, my BS detector would be going off the charts. But, this fella is a 'numbers guy' and he's not into hype ...so I trust that his £1m / month forecast is there, or thereabouts. If he only does half as well... That's still £500k per month. Which for most of us, is a life-changing amount of money. Me and this guy talked 'client getting' strategies... He's got two! Warm - Referrals from his contacts. Cold - Manual LinkedIn outreach. I expected his LinkedIn process to be long, with lots of complex steps but nope... It's so simple my 9-year-old could do it. You've just got to make sure to put the pieces together, in the right order. Going off his current hit rate... You could expect 1-2 coffee dates daily, from just 30 connections a day. So it got me thinking. If I were put on a live class… That shows you what to do, to get a coffee date per day from LinkedIn… ...would you come?

Done right, you can get A2P approval in 3 - 7 days. Although there’s no way we can ‘guarantee’ you’ll be approved… We’ve done enough of these now to know what it takes to get it right, first time. Let’s look at this as if we were setting up a client campaign. Before you do anything else… You need to collect some basic information from your client. This is info such as legal business name, EIN number, authorized representative, etc. Once you’ve got this info… Follow this walk-through video from Graham that shows you how to get A2P approved in HighLevel. https://youtu.be/VKqeSORH3ns?si=4E6u4OWlIk0N4CGg And use his templates: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ehEBAKal60YW8qT2FHPRfc_OBJuGFtEKnF4caklMOm0/edit?usp=sharing Peeps that were previously struggling with rejections, have followed this to the letter and are now approved. As well as best practices on how to get approved… I’ve seen you’ve also got a bunch of other questions about the A2P process. I’ve had a go at answering the most common Qs below. --------------- Q: Since we "own" the GHL agency account, do we leave the BRAND as our agency and just customize the CAMPAIGN for the client? Or do we provide the clients details for the BRAND? A: Use the client's information because if you register it under your name/company and your client's number gets flagged for some reason it will be on your account not their account. This could affect your deliverability as an agency owner to service other clients. Also, using the client’s details help with compliance as this will help show that all leads that opted in are being contacted "directly by the company they opted into" and not from a 3rd party --------------- Q: If I’ve already got back brand approval, does that mean I’ll automatically get campaign approval? A: No, A2P is two pronged - brand and campaign and approved separately. The brand part is usually approved in an hour or two as it’s easy for them to check (if you’ve provided correct company info as per above. Campaign approval takes longer and you need to make sure you show easy proof that leads have consented to their data being used and that you are not marketing restricted products.
