{"faqs":[{"answer":"Our AI SDR uses your firm’s predefined qualification rules to assess scope, budget, and timeline expectations in real time. It asks targeted follow-up questions based on project type — whether it’s a kitchen remodel or a $5M commercial build — and routes only those leads that meet your criteria to your calendar, ensuring your team spends time only on viable opportunities.","question":"How does Worqd's AI SDR handle design-build specific inquiries about project scope and timelines?"},{"answer":"Yes, Worqd integrates with major CRMs like HubSpot, Salesforce, and Zoho via native connectors or Zapier, and works with any phone system that supports call forwarding or SIP trunking. Lead data syncs bidirectionally, so your team sees full conversation history in your CRM, and outbound calls from your team are logged automatically.","question":"Can Worqd work with our existing CRM and phone system for design-build lead management?"},{"answer":"Unlike an in-house SDR team that requires hiring, training, and management overhead, Worqd provides instant 24/7 lead response at a fraction of the cost. Our AI scales with inquiry volume, qualifies leads using your exact rules, and books calls directly into your calendar — all while eliminating the risk of missed after-hours or weekend inquiries that human teams often miss due to shift limitations.","question":"What makes Worqd different from hiring an in-house SDR team for our design-build firm?"},{"answer":"Most design-build firms are live within 5–7 business days. This includes setting up AI qualification rules, integrating with your CRM and calendar, configuring call routing, and running a test phase to ensure accuracy. We handle the technical setup so your team can focus on reviewing qualified leads and booking calls from day one.","question":"How long does it take to launch Worqd's lead conversion system for a design-build firm?"},{"answer":"Yes, Worqd includes built-in TCPA and GDPR-compliant consent management. The AI only engages leads who have opted in through your website forms or landing pages, logs consent timestamps, and provides opt-out mechanisms in every communication. We also provide audit trails for compliance reviews, so you can demonstrate adherence to regional telemarketing and data privacy laws.","question":"Does Worqd help design-build firms comply with consent requirements for lead follow-up?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Find the Bottleneck","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"We analyze your design-build firm’s lead flow — buyer, offer, channels, and response process — to pinpoint where growth is stuck before making any changes."},{"step":"2","title":"Build the Plan","gradient":"from-yellow-500 to-orange-500","description":"We create a priority plan for channels and lead-handling paths tailored to your design-build firm’s goals and market."},{"step":"3","title":"Launch and Improve","gradient":"from-green-500 to-emerald-500","description":"We launch campaigns and AI response quickly, then observe outcomes, test what matters, and scale what works — all while recovering missed demand from your existing leads."}],"ctaText":"Book a Growth Call","eyebrow":"AI SDR & Lead Conversion","benefits":[{"icon":"Target","title":"Faster Lead-to-Call Conversion","gradient":"from-emerald-500 to-teal-500","description":"Your design-build firm can qualify and book project inquiries in under 60 seconds, 24/7 — even after hours and on weekends. When a homeowner or developer submits a request, your AI SDR instantly responds, captures project details, and schedules a call with your team. This reduces response time from hours to seconds, so you capture more opportunities from your marketing efforts.

With single point of responsibility, your firm is accountable for the entire project — but if your lead response is slow, that accountability doesn't matter because the lead has already moved to a competitor.

With project values often tied to design excellence and cost certainty, the cost per qualified conversation can be 4-7x higher than AI-managed follow-up. Design-build firms need to respond to every inquiry — from small renovations to large commercial projects — but a manual SDR team can't provide 24/7 coverage without significant overhead.
