You’re spending $5K, $10K, maybe even $20K a month on ads. Leads are rolling in. Notifications are popping. Life is good.
Until it’s not.
Because while you’re sipping that well-deserved cold brew or stuck in a Slack thread from hell… your fresh new leads?
They’re being ghosted.
Lead interest dies faster than milk in a hot car.
Studies show that if you wait more than 5 minutes to respond, your chances of closing that lead nosedive harder than your 2022 crypto portfolio. In fact, responding within 5 minutes makes you 21x more likely to book a meeting.
But guess how long the average business actually takes to follow up?
47 hours.
That’s not just slow. That’s business malpractice.
Let’s say you drop $10,000 this month on ads.
You generate 300 leads. Congrats!
Now imagine half of them get bored, forget who you are, or book with your competitor because… you took too long to text back.
Poof. There goes $5,000 in wasted ad spend.
And it’s not because your offer sucks. Or your funnel’s broken. It’s because your follow-up is stuck in 2011.
They’re bouncing between Facebook leads, LinkedIn DMs, web forms, calendars, CRMs, and maybe a little Netflix tab open on the side. We’re not judging.
But they’re human. And humans aren’t built for instant, omnichannel response.
That’s why Charlie was.
Charlie is like that teammate who never sleeps, never misses a message, and books meetings in their sleep.
Here’s what Charlie does the second a lead comes in:
You don’t lift a finger. You just show up to the call.
One of our users, a digital marketing agency, used to take 90 minutes to follow up. With Charlie? Down to 90 seconds. Response rates went up, meetings doubled, and their ROAS finally got the respect it deserved.
Now? They don’t chase leads. Leads chase them.
And if you don’t fix it, your ad budget might as well be a donation.
Charlie AI is your unfair advantage in a world of slow responders.
Book a demo. Test it yourself. And watch what happens when AI meets urgency.
