The Math
Lead-to-call conversion drops 60% if you respond after 5 minutes. Drops 90% after an hour. By 4 hours, the lead has called three other agents.
The Fix
AI voice agent on Twilio + Claude that picks up every inbound lead in under 12 seconds. Qualifies. Books showings. Hands off hot leads to the agent's cell within 60 seconds.
The Outcome
For one Miami agent, this single system change took monthly closings from 2 → 6 in 90 days. No additional ad spend. Same lead volume. Better conversion at every stage of the funnel.
