Alex · the AI rep for inbound enquiries

The quiet of knowing every enquiry is handled.

Alex answers every enquiry, checks it is real, finds out what is driving it, and decides against your own criteria whether it is worth passing on. The ones that are get a slot in your rep’s calendar. The rest he turns down politely, and says why.

Replies outside office hours · Never passes on an irrelevant contact · No lock-in, switch it off any time

  1. Hello Petr, this is Alex from Ninjabot, thank you for your enquiry about our AI sales rep. I can see you have a sales team doing mostly outbound. What made you start looking at an AI rep right now?

  2. 4 minutes

    Hello Alex, lately it is hard to find good salespeople willing to call and be turned down.

  3. I understand completely. Our AI rep could make the first contact and pass on to your people only those who show interest. Would you like to go through it on a call or an online meeting?

  4. 2 minutes

    We are not selling bread rolls. I cannot imagine an AI talking to our customers.

  5. Our AI rep is not there to sell your solution. It makes the first contact and finds out who wants to talk to you about it. We would be glad to show you on a call. Would tomorrow at 2pm suit you?

  6. 6 minutes

    Interesting. Tomorrow is no good. Could you do Thursday afternoon?

  7. One or three would work.

  8. Three, please.

    Delivered

  9. Great, thank you for confirming. I will put the meeting in for Thursday at three and you will be speaking to my colleague, who will take you through it. Have a good evening.

One day of inbound

No row is waiting for somebody to get to it.

This is the list you look at in the morning. Every enquiry shows when it landed, how long the answer took, and where it ended.

How Alex works

Seven steps your team otherwise does by hand.

On the tenth enquiry of the same day and on the one that arrives on Sunday evening. This is the part people do unevenly, because they are people.

  1. Catches the enquiryAlex
  2. Checks the contact is realAlex
  3. Opens the conversationAlex
  4. Finds out what is driving itAlex
  5. Checks your qualifying criteriaAlex
  6. Handles objections and questionsAlex
  7. Books the meeting, or declines politelyYour rep
  1. 01Alex

    Catches the enquiry

    A form on your site, Facebook, Instagram, email. Whatever reaches you today lands in the CRM as a contact and a deal.

    Nothing retyped by hand

  2. 02Alex

    Checks the contact is real

    A made-up number or a dead address never reaches your rep.

    A filter before the first call

  3. 03Alex

    Opens the conversation

    He answers outside working hours too. Somebody who writes at three in the morning is answered at three in the morning. Those night-time enquiries produce business that otherwise would not exist.

    Evening, night and weekend

  4. 04Alex

    Finds out what is driving it

    Why they filled the form in, what they are solving, how urgent it is. Not a questionnaire, an ordinary conversation.

    Your rep goes in prepared

  5. 05Alex

    Checks your qualifying criteria

    Two or three questions you set. Whoever fails them never reaches your rep, and that is most of what paid advertising sends. You change the criteria yourself, as the meetings teach you what matters.

    Your criteria, not ours

  6. 06Alex

    Handles objections and questions

    He answers from your own material, from price lists, references and technical detail, not from a script.

    Answers from your documents

  7. 07Your rep

    Books the meeting, or declines politely

    The slot comes from the rep’s own calendar, and the CRM gets the whole conversation with it. A contact that does not fit is closed with a reason, so nobody leaves with a bad impression. From here on it is your own person.

    The seventh step stays yours

The last row is pink on purpose. Alex gets you to the table; your own person closes.

Proof

How it turns out in practice.

Figures and words from customers who approved them for publication. Nothing modelled.

“Ninjabot sent 444 people into our calendars in one month, all of them ready to deal with the subsidy and the retrofit now. After a week we had to slow it down, because our regional reps could not keep up with the on-site surveys.”

“Without active outreach we would struggle to generate new opportunities at this scale.”

“The biggest value is not just the time saved, it is the quiet of knowing the whole process works and that we have it under control.”

Common questions

What people ask us about Alex.

Will the customer know they are writing to an AI?

Alex does not pose as a particular person from your team and does not lie when asked directly. He works under his own name as your sales team’s assistant. It is also the practical choice: if he played one of your reps, the first meeting in person would give him away.

Does he answer in the evening and at weekends?

Yes, to enquiries straight away. Those night-time enquiries are exactly where business appears that otherwise would not.

Will it close the deal for us?

No. Alex gets you in front of people who want the conversation and books a specific time. Your own person closes.

How does he know who to pass on and who to turn down?

By the criteria you set. Alex would book more meetings than this, but a meeting with somebody who cannot buy from you only costs your rep an hour.

Can he promise something we do not do?

No. You define which products he offers and which rules he has to hold. He answers only from what you loaded into him.

How long does it take to go live?

Two to four weeks from the order, depending on how fast the material arrives. The first few weeks run on small batches and get tuned.

The other half of the team

Alex handles what comes in. Bea starts where nothing comes in at all.

If your problem is not the inbound but a database nobody has touched in years, that is Bea’s work.

A full calendar of meetings. Without hiring another rep.

Live in 14 days, three to four hours of your time. No lock-in, switch it off any time.
