[ 01 / 04 ] ### Conversation AI Setup and Training Configure GHL's built-in Conversation AI with your business context. Train it on your services, pricing, location, and sales flow. Connect it to your website chat, SMS inbox, and email. ### AI Workflow Actions Use GHL's AI workflow action to summarize conversations, generate responses, classify lead intent, and trigger conditional branches — all inside your existing GHL automation flows. ### Custom Knowledge Base Integration Build a knowledge base of your most common customer questions, objections, and answers. Feed this into GHL's Conversation AI so it responds accurately to your specific business context. ### Lead Qualification AI Configure GHL's AI to ask qualifying questions, score leads by service type and urgency, and route qualified leads to your sales pipeline automatically. ### AI to Booking Flow Connect GHL's Conversation AI directly to the GHL calendar. When a lead is ready to book, the AI presents available times and completes the booking without human involvement. ### Beyond GHL Native — Custom AI Agents When GHL's native AI isn't enough (multi-channel routing, voice AI with custom LLM, proprietary training data), we build a custom AI agent that integrates with GHL's CRM while deploying on channels GHL doesn't natively support. How it works ## From kickoff to launch 2. 01 #### Step 01 ### AI Audit Review your GHL AI features, current chat flows, and biggest response-time gaps. 3. 02 #### Step 02 ### Train Ingest your services, pricing, FAQs, objections, and booking logic into GHL's Conversation AI. 4. 03 #### Step 03 ### Wire Connect the AI to your website chat, SMS inbox, email, calendar, and pipelines. 5. 04 #### Step 04 ### Launch Live test conversations, tune responses, and hand over documentation.

It reads incoming messages, generates replies using your configured business context, and can trigger actions inside GHL workflows — updating tags, moving pipeline stages, and booking appointments. ### How does Thrive Media train GHL's AI on my specific business? + We build a knowledge base of your services, pricing, service area, objection responses, sales flow, and edge cases, then configure GHL's Conversation AI with prompts, guardrails, and workflow triggers that match how your business actually converts leads. ### What is the difference between GHL's native AI and a custom AI agent? + GHL's native AI is fast to deploy and covers chat-based lead response well. A custom AI agent is required when you need multi-channel voice + SMS + email routing with unified memory, custom LLMs, proprietary training data, or complex integration logic GHL's builder can't handle cleanly. ### Does GHL's AI work for SMS, email, and web chat simultaneously? + Yes — GHL routes all three channels through the same conversation thread, so the AI maintains context whether a lead first messages you on chat, then follows up by SMS, then confirms by email. ### How long does it take to set up and train a GHL AI agent? + Most Conversation AI configurations ship in 1–2 weeks. Multi-channel builds with voice AI and complex workflow triggers take 3–4 weeks. ### How much does GHL AI cost — the subscription vs Thrive Media's build fee? + GHL AI Employee is $97/month per sub-account (unlimited AI usage) or pay-as-you-go pricing per action. Thrive Media's build fee is a one-time project cost scoped after the AI audit. You own the configuration at handover. ### Can GHL's AI book appointments automatically? + Yes. Configured properly, GHL Conversation AI qualifies the lead, offers available calendar times, books the appointment, and sends confirmation — end to end, no human involvement. ### When should I use GHL's native AI vs having Thrive Media build a custom agent? + GHL native AI is the right answer for most SMS/email/chat lead response inside a GHL-centric workflow. Custom agents are the right answer when you need channels GHL doesn't cover natively, custom LLMs, or logic beyond GHL's workflow builder. ## Turn on the AI you're already paying for Free GHL AI audit.
