How does Voice AI handle event venue inquiries?

AI is trained on your venue and embeds on your website. Event planners click and have a conversation via voice or text. The AI answers questions about capacity, availability, and pricing while qualifying the lead—gathering event type, date, guest count, and budget. Your sales team receives fully qualified leads with complete context.

Can planners choose between voice and text?

Yes. Bolka Embed offers dual mode. Planners can speak their questions or type them based on their situation. Someone at work might prefer text; someone browsing at home might prefer voice. The AI handles the inquiry either way.

What information does the AI provide to planners?

AI answers questions about: venue spaces and capacity, date availability, package options and pricing ranges, catering and bar options, AV and technical capabilities, parking and accessibility, vendor policies, and what is included. Planners get real answers, not just "someone will contact you."

How does the AI qualify leads?

AI gathers key qualification info conversationally: event type (wedding, corporate, social), preferred date(s), expected guest count, budget range, decision timeline, and specific requirements. This tells your sales team exactly who is ready to book versus who is just browsing.

Why is 24/7 response important for venue inquiries?

67% of venue inquiries happen evenings and weekends when planners have time to research. They are comparing multiple venues—whoever responds first has a major advantage. AI responds instantly at 10pm Sunday night while competitors wait until Monday morning.

Can the AI check date availability?

Yes. If connected to your booking calendar, AI checks real-time availability before gathering planner details. It can say "June 15th is available" or "That date is booked, but June 22nd is open—would that work?" This advances conversations faster.

How much does this cost?

$29/month includes 500 voice minutes and 20,000 text messages. For 5-minute inquiry conversations, this supports 100+ voice inquiries or thousands of text inquiries monthly—ample for most venues.

Does the AI provide exact pricing?

AI provides pricing ranges and package starting points based on what you configure. For complex custom quotes, AI captures requirements and notes that a sales team member will provide a detailed proposal. This balances transparency with flexibility.

AI Qualifies and Informs

AI gathers event type, date, guest count, budget range. Provides relevant info: "Our Grand Ballroom holds up to 250 guests. For a June wedding, I'd recommend our all-inclusive package starting at $150 per person." Checks availability and answers questions.

Sales Team Receives Qualified Lead

Dashboard shows inquiry with full conversation: event details, budget, timeline, questions asked, availability confirmed. Sales team contacts planner with all context—no cold discovery call needed.

"Brides research venues at 11pm after work. We used to lose them to venues with faster response. Now AI engages immediately, answers their questions, and qualifies them. When my sales manager calls Monday morning, she already knows it is a 200-guest October wedding with $40K budget. We booked 23 more weddings last quarter."
