The MIT/InsideSales lead-response study reported that the odds of contacting a web lead fell 100× when the first call happened at 30 minutes instead of 5 minutes, while qualification odds fell 21× (study PDF). Harvard Business Review reported that firms responding within an hour were nearly 7× as likely to qualify a lead as firms responding later (HBR, 2011). An AI receptionist is one way to answer 24/7, but the right choice depends on booking, transfers, CRM sync and total usage cost.
