A Malaysian cross border manufacturer of industrial components used Instadesk’s AI voice bot for outbound lead qualification.The bot called potential distributors in Indonesia,Thailand,and Vietnam,identified qualified leads,and scheduled follow up calls.Results after four months:qualified leads increased by fifty percent,cost per lead dropped by seventy percent,and sales team productivity improved by forty percent.This case study demonstrates how AI voice bots transform outbound sales.
Customer Background and Pain Points
The manufacturer exported to over twenty countries.Its sales team spent sixty percent of their time cold calling leads from trade shows and online inquiries.Only five percent of calls reached decision makers,and conversion from call to meeting was low.The company needed a solution to pre qualify leads before passing them to human sales reps.
The Solution:AI Voice Bot for Outbound Lead Qualification
The company deployed Instadesk’s voice bot to call leads from their CRM.The bot introduced itself in the local language(Bahasa Malaysia,Bahasa Indonesia,Thai,or Vietnamese),asked qualifying questions about annual purchase volume,decision authority,and timeline,and scored each lead as hot,warm,or cold.Hot leads were transferred to human sales reps immediately;warm leads received follow up emails;cold leads were marked for future nurturing.
Implementation and Results
Deployment took three weeks.After four months,the bot made twenty thousand calls,reaching sixty percent of leads.Qualified leads increased from two hundred to three hundred per month,a fifty percent increase.Cost per qualified lead dropped from one hundred twenty ringgit to thirty six ringgit,a seventy percent reduction.Sales reps spent eighty percent less time on cold calling and focused on closing deals.Customer satisfaction among distributors improved due to faster response.
