Chat as a Lead Source with Ted DeBettencourt

from Lawyer Business Advantage

In this episode, Alay and Ted discuss:  AI vs. human-driven chat How customer experience still requires a human touch.  Increasing the close rate between leads and intake. Key Takeaways:  A good human chat service can make your digital marketing and law service stand out from the pack.  People still want an empathetic person to relate to what they’re going through, rather than just AI.  In the legal field, people want to know that they’re in the right place, with the right firm for their situation.  Phone leads should be your primary source, but chat leads should be #2. Most law firms say their intake is great, but it is broken in about 50% of cases, and they don’t know it.   Tweetable Moments: “What makes us different is we’re human-powered. So our motto is butts, not bots. That’s butts in the seat, not bots in the cloud.” —  Ted DeBettencourt “I use AI pretty much every day now, and I would have a really hard time wrapping my head around taking my client experience and giving that to an AI chatbot. As good as they are, they’re not there yet.” —  Alay Yajnik “What we find is when we use humans, we’re able to get our firms a lot more leads.” —  Ted DeBettencourt “It’s so much easier to talk to a real person on chat than just to fill out some form.” —  Alay Yajnik    Thank you to our Sponsor: Counsel CPAs: https://www.counselcpas.com/ Connect with Ted DeBettencourt:  Website: https://juvoleads.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/theodoremdebettencourt  Connect with Alay Yajnik:  Podcast: http://lawyerbusinessadvantage.com/  One Page Strategic Plan: LawFirmSuccessGroup.com Email: [email protected] LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/alayyajnik
