{"faqs":[{"answer":"Worqd connects to your current CRM — no migration needed. Our AI SDRs pull dormant contacts (franchise operators, developers, restaurateurs), re-engage them via email, SMS, and voice, qualify for project scope and budget, and book calls directly on your team's calendar with full conversation context.","question":"How does Pipeline Recovery work with my existing CRM for restaurant construction leads?"},{"answer":"Our AI voice agents answer instantly and qualify scope, timeline, and budget using your calendar and your rules — then hand off to your estimator with complete notes so the technical conversation continues with a real person who has full context.","question":"Can AI SDRs handle technical questions about commercial kitchen exhaust or fire suppression hood requirements?"},{"answer":"Paid campaigns and outreach can start producing inquiries within days of launch. Pipeline Recovery typically surfaces qualified conversations in the first 2–3 weeks as AI SDRs work through your segmented CRM backlog of tenant improvement and franchise rollout leads.","question":"What's the typical timeline to see reactivated restaurant build-out projects in the pipeline?"},{"answer":"AI SDRs operate 24/7 including weekends at 70–lower cost per qualified conversation, qualify every inquiry in under 60 seconds, and never miss a follow-up. You get integrated creative testing and search visibility from the same partner — not a siloed hire.","question":"How is this different from hiring an internal SDR for restaurant construction follow-up?"},{"answer":"Yes. Demand Generation puts your offers in front of the right buyers on Google, LinkedIn, Meta, and TikTok — with landing pages built for commercial kitchen construction conversions. Creative Sprint delivers 30 platform-ready videos from one brief.","question":"Do you run ads targeting restaurant franchise build-out decision-makers specifically?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Audit Your CRM for Stalled Restaurant Projects","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"We identify dormant leads — franchise rollouts, QSR remodels, full-service restaurant renovations — and segment by project stage, budget band, and decision-maker role."},{"step":"2","title":"Launch AI SDR Reactivation Campaigns","gradient":"from-yellow-500 to-orange-500","description":"Our AI systems re-engage contacts via email, SMS, and voice — qualifying for scope (BOH/FOH), timeline, permitting status, and budget — booking calls directly on your calendar."},{"step":"3","title":"Scale with Creative and Search Visibility","gradient":"from-green-500 to-emerald-500","description":"Winning angles become UGC video ads targeting restaurant construction keywords; AEO/GEO ensures you appear in AI answers for commercial kitchen exhaust, drive-through construction, and FF&E installation."}],"ctaText":"Book a Growth Call to scope reactivation for your restaurant build-out pipeline","eyebrow":"Pipeline Recovery for Contractors","benefits":[{"icon":"Target","title":"Revive High-Value TI Leads Already in Your Database","gradient":"from-emerald-500 to-teal-500","description":"UGC-style video ads showcasing your back-of-house expertise — MEP coordination, hood and suppression installs, TI sequencing — run alongside answer-engine optimization that gets you cited when buyers research restaurant construction in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews.

Every revision cascades into change orders on hood design, make-up air routing, and grease interceptor placement, eroding the thin margins that define commercial kitchen construction. If those stalled deals sit in your CRM after a change order dispute, that's revenue you've already spent money to earn — sitting idle."},{"icon":"PhoneMissed","stat":"15 to 25% increases in customer spending","color":"from-orange-500 to-yellow-500","title":"Health Department Plan Review Surprises Stall Deals — and Your Pipeline Goes Cold","description":"Evolving health department requirements surface during plan review or inspections, forcing field modifications outside the original scope and delaying substantial completion. The client gets frustrated, the conversation stalls, and a build-out lead that took months to develop goes quiet in your CRM. With labor consuming 36.5% of revenue industry-wide, restaurant operators are hypersensitive to unplanned costs — and contractors without a systematic way to re-open those conversations lose the follow-on work entirely."},{"icon":"DollarSign","stat":"40% market share","color":"from-yellow-500 to-green-500","title":"Multi-Unit Rollouts Multiply Site-Specific Change Orders Across Every Location","description":"Franchise operators — who drive a growing share of demand as quick-service concepts hold 40% market share in a $1.55 trillion industry — expect prototype build-outs to repeat cleanly. But every site fights back: drive-through queuing geometry, grease interceptor placement, make-up air system routing, and local health department plan review requirements all force adaptations. When a rollout lead goes cold mid-negotiation, you're not losing one project — you're losing the entire multi-location program."}],"quickWins":["Run a database reactivation campaign on every lead tied to a stalled health department plan review — AI SDRs re-open the conversation and you only pay for conversations that come back.","Turn your last three completed commercial kitchen build-outs into UGC-style video ads showing BOH expertise — hood installs, grease interceptor placement, MEP coordination — through the Creative Sprint."],"subheadline":"Worqd's AI SDRs reactivate your old restaurant construction contacts — qualifying and booking calls in under 60 seconds, 24/7 — so you win more tenant improvement projects without adding sales headcount.","problemTitle":"The Hidden Costs Killing Restaurant Build-Out Contractor Growth","testimonials":[{"quote":"Worqd's AI SDRs started booking calls from our old franchise rollout leads within the first week — contacts we'd written off after change order disputes over MEP revisions stalled the conversation.
