{"faqs":[{"answer":"We connect directly to your CRM (HubSpot, Salesforce, or via CSV export) — no POS integration required. The AI SDR uses your existing contact data, offer details, and calendar availability to qualify and book conversations.","question":"How does Worqd reactivate old leads without access to our POS system?"},{"answer":"Yes. The AI SDR follows your qualification rules — party size, date availability, dietary needs — and books qualified requests directly into your calendar. Complex requests are handed to your team with full conversation context.","question":"Can the AI SDR handle catering inquiries and large group orders?"},{"answer":"The AI SDR can route standard orders to your online ordering link or transfer to a live team member during business hours. Every interaction is logged in your CRM with tags for future segmentation.","question":"What happens if a reactivated contact wants to place a regular pickup order?"},{"answer":"After the growth call, we typically launch within 5–7 business days: CRM connection, script approval, calendar sync, and AI SDR configuration. Paid campaigns and outreach can start producing inquiries within days of launch.","question":"How fast can we launch reactivation for our fast casual locations?"},{"answer":"A part-timer works limited hours, misses after-hours inquiries, and costs the same regardless of results. Worqd's AI SDR operates 24/7, qualifies in under 60 seconds, and you only pay for conversations that convert — at 70–lower cost per qualified conversation.","question":"Why not just hire a part-time employee to call old leads?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Free Growth Call","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"We audit your database, identify reactivation segments, and scope the work against your revenue goals — not hours logged."},{"step":"2","title":"Connect & Launch","gradient":"from-yellow-500 to-orange-500","description":"We integrate with your CRM, configure AI SDR with your offers and calendar rules, and launch outreach within days."},{"step":"3","title":"Booked Calls & Orders","gradient":"from-green-500 to-emerald-500","description":"Qualified conversations land directly on your calendar.
