Executive Summary
A YC-backed healthcare staffing marketplace, needed a better way to reach hospitals and find decision-makers. Our voice AI agents took over their first-contact calls and boosted their outreach from 1,000 to 7,000 calls in just one week. This quick win led to 4x more conversions and let their sales team focus on closing deals instead of cold calling.
The Company
The platform connects nurses with hospitals that need temporary staff. This way they help healthcare facilities fill shifts quickly while giving nurses more flexibility in their work schedules. As a fast-growing YC company, they needed to reach more hospitals faster to grow their marketplace.
The Problem
A two-step sales process didn't work well:
- Step One: SDRs (Sales Development Reps) called hospitals to find the names and contact details of hiring managers.
- Step Two: Closers contacted these decision-makers to sell them on using the platform.
This process created four big problems:
- Wasted time: SDRs spent hours on repetitive calls just to collect basic contact information.
- Inconsistent results: The quality of calls varied based on which SDR made them.
- Growth bottleneck: Closers waited for SDRs to find leads before they could do their job.
- Scaling issues: To manage more calls, they would have needed to hire more people.
The Solution: Leaping AI Voice Agents
We built a custom voice AI solution to take over the first step of their sales process:
1. Mass Outreach Calls
Our AI voice agents called thousands of hospitals to ask who handles nurse staffing.
The system:
- Called multiple hospitals at the same time
- Asked for the right department
- Collected decision-maker names and contact details
- Noted the best times to call back
2. Consistent Lead Qualification
Every call followed the exact same qualification script to:
- Ask the right questions every time
- Follow up with relevant questions based on responses
- Collect the same data points from each prospect
- Score leads based on clear criteria
3. Smooth Handoff to Sales Team
The voice AI worked with their existing tools to:
- Send lead details directly to their CRM
- Alert closers when high-quality leads came in
- Provide full call transcripts for context
- Schedule follow-up calls with decision-makers
4. Easy Management
Their team could control the whole process with:
- A simple dashboard to track the results
- Tools to update scripts without coding
- Real-time reports on call outcomes
- Easy ways to listen to sample calls
How We Set It Up
We rolled out the solution in just three weeks:
- Week 1: We built voice agents that matched their exact script and workflow.
- Week 2: Testing of the system with a small batch of calls and made adjustments.
- Week 3: System launch and training of the team on how to use the dashboard.
