Monitor campaigns

The Campaigns page shows: Each row shows the campaign’s Status, Progress, Start Time, Results, and Created date, with actions to manage it. Filter by status or search by name. Individual calls appear on the Calls page, and outcomes roll up to the Dashboard.

Call outcomes

Outbound calls are grouped into these outcomes:
Tell your assistant what “qualified” means in its instructions, for example A lead is qualified if they plan to buy within 3 months. Clear criteria give you cleaner outcome data.

Best practices

  • Test first. Run a small batch of internal numbers before calling real leads.
  • Call at sensible hours in your leads’ time zone, and respect do-not-call requests.
  • Keep batches focused. One audience and one goal per campaign makes results easier to read.
  • Review conversations from the first calls and refine the prompt before scaling up.
