Everything Included
One platform. Every feature. Already configured.
Instant outreach, AI engagement, full-funnel follow-up, and CRM sync — built for you and connected to the tools you already use.
Instant SMS Outreach
Every lead gets a personalized text in under 60 seconds — nights, weekends, holidays. It references their inquiry and asks a real question, so the conversation starts while other brands are still checking their inbox.
AI Agents for Every Stage
FranFunnel's AI engages candidates, answers their questions, and offers meeting times right in the text thread — with a purpose-built agent for each pipeline stage, intro call through Discovery Day. Your rep can step in any time: one manual message and the agent stands down.
Two-Way CRM Sync
Every conversation logs to FranConnect, GHL, Salesforce, HubSpot, and others automatically — and the sync runs both directions. Move a candidate to a new stage in your CRM, and FranFunnel launches the right engagement for that stage. No double entry, ever.
Full-Funnel Automation
Follow-ups, reminders, re-engagement of gone-quiet leads, post-handoff check-ins — every stage keeps moving on its own, so no candidate stalls because someone got busy. Your team spends its day on warm conversations, not chasing.
Multi-Brand & Multi-Rep Support
Running multiple brands or a team of reps? Each brand gets its own messaging and workflow. Leads route to the right rep every time.
White-Glove Service for Life
We connect your lead sources, write your messaging, build your automations, and have you live in 48 hours. From there, a dedicated client solutions manager keeps tuning and building as your process evolves. You never configure a thing.
The Problem
Your CRM stores leads. It doesn't contact them.
Most franchise brands rely on reps to follow up — and reps are busy, distracted, or off the clock when a lead comes in. By the time someone reaches out, the candidate has already talked to three other brands. FranFunnel closes that gap automatically.
The moment a lead arrives, they hear from you — before anyone else gets the chance.
