Automation

Available now

Automate the follow-up. Keep control of the conversation.

You choose what happens, when and to whom: acknowledge every enquiry in seconds, remind Sarah if nobody has replied in 30 minutes, chase a quote after three days. B2B Brain runs the repetitive steps and shows you everything it did. Pause any rule, or take over a conversation, and it steps aside.

This is for you if…

  • You know you should reply faster and chase every quote — on a quiet week

  • The same messages are typed out several times a day

  • You've lost work because a follow-up simply didn't happen

  • You want help, not a robot talking to your customers unsupervised

The problem

Good intentions don't survive a busy week.

Everyone means to reply within the hour and chase every quote. Then a job overruns, the phone rings and two new enquiries arrive. The follow-up that would have won the work never gets sent, because it depended on someone remembering.

  • First replies depend on who's free
  • Quotes chased only when someone remembers
  • Appointment reminders sent by hand, or not at all
  • No record of what was sent, or whether it worked

What forgotten follow-up costs

Worked example
Quotes sent a month
25
Chased within 3 days today
9
Acceptance with a chase (your data)
29%
Acceptance without
11%
Extra jobs if all 25 were chased
≈ 3

How B2B Brain solves it

Rules that match how your business already works.

Build each rule from plain steps: when this happens, do this, wait, check, then do that. Start from a template — new-enquiry response, missed-call recovery, quote chase, appointment reminder, review request, stale-lead reminder, high-value alert — and edit it. Test a rule before switching it on. Every automated message is logged on the customer's timeline, and nothing is ever sent to customers who have opted out.

What changes in your business

Before and after.

  • First reply whenever someone's free

    Acknowledged within seconds, day or night

  • Quotes chased when remembered

    Every quote chased on day 3 — until the customer replies

  • Owner reminds staff by text

    B2B Brain reminds the right person if nobody has replied

  • No idea what was sent automatically

    Every automated step on the customer's timeline

A day with it

What Automation looks like in practice.

  1. 21:14

    A website enquiry arrives. An acknowledgement is sent in 8 seconds; Sarah is notified.

  2. 08:45

    Nobody has replied yet, so Sarah gets a reminder with the customer's details.

  3. Day 3

    No answer on the £4,800 quote. A polite follow-up goes out, written in your words.

  4. Day 4

    The customer replies. The automation stops and Sarah takes it from there.

FAQ

Questions about Automation.

  • No. Automation only does what your rules say, using your wording. It is not free-roaming AI.

  • Every rule can be paused, and any conversation can be taken over by a person, which stops automated messages to that customer.

  • No. Rules are built from plain steps, and templates cover the common ones.
