⚑ QUICK ANSWER

IVR live transfer leads are inbound callers who are greeted by an interactive voice response (IVR) system, answer your qualifying questions with their keypad or voice, and are transferred to your agents live only if they qualify. Your team skips cold calling and unqualified callers, and talks only to people who already said they want what you sell.

Definition

What is an IVR live transfer?

An IVR, or interactive voice response system, is the automated voice menu that answers a call and asks questions. In an IVR live transfer, that system sits in front of your sales team. It asks the caller for the details you care about, such as state, age range or product interest. If the caller gives answers that meet your rules, the call is connected to a live agent. If not, the call ends and your agents never spend time on it.

That makes IVR a screening layer. Your agents talk only to callers who passed, so more of their day goes to selling. Because the IVR works around the clock and handles many calls at once, it can scale volume without adding screeners.

IVR transfers are often paired with ringless voicemail, where the consumer receives a voicemail drop and calls back to hear the offer. The packages below combine both.

Process

How an IVR live transfer works

1

Caller responds

A consumer calls in after an ad, a text or a ringless voicemail they opted in to receive.

2

IVR screens

The IVR asks your qualifying questions, such as state, age or product interest.

3

Qualified callers transfer

Only callers who pass are connected live to your licensed agents or sales team.

4

You pay for confirmed transfers

Payment is held by Data Monster until transfers meet the criteria you agreed on.

Script design

How to design an IVR qualifying script

Keep the script short. Two to four questions is common, because each extra question loses some callers. Ask the question that disqualifies the most people first, such as state or age range, so unqualified callers exit early. Use plain language and offer clear keypad options.

Choosing

Which package should you choose?

Start with a smaller package to test your message, IVR script and close rate. Once your cost per sale holds, move up a tier to lower your cost per voicemail drop. Starter is about 9.2 cents per drop and Elite Pro is about 2.6 cents, so scaling has a real effect on your cost. Match the tier to what your agents can answer.
