Manual Calls Action [updated]

Manual call action is a valuable tool in your platform that you can use to queue contacts that need to be called.

Adding Contacts For A Manual Call

Now, we’ll need to add contacts for a manual call action. Click Contacts in the left menu. Inside the contacts section, select one or multiple contacts that you want to add to the workflow by clicking the checkbox to the left of the contact’s name.

For this example, we’re only going to select one contact.

Add all contacts at once
Add all at a scheduled time
Add in drip mode

Once you’ve selected your desired option, enter a description on the box shown below then click “Add to Campaign/Workflow.”

Next, let’s click “Conversations” on the left menu, and then click “Manual Actions.”

You can also see that our manual action is assigned to a user. This means that the manual action will show up on the dashboard of the assigned user to ensure they see it.

To begin the manual call action, click “Let’s Start.”

Multiple Contacts

If you have more than one contact queued up, the system will automatically start dialing the next contact after your previous call ends.

When you have multiple contacts to call, setting up a manual call action is a great way to automate your tasks for a more streamlined workflow.
