Given a lead spends more than 10 minutes on a high-value product page, when the session ends, then the system generates and sends an alert in real-time to the assigned sales representative.
Sales representatives are notified of leads who interact with chatbot services on the company website.
Given a lead engages with the chatbot for more than 5 interactions, when the interaction metric is recorded, then an alert is sent to the assigned sales representative within 3 minutes.
Sales representatives receive updates on lead activity based on scoring thresholds that trigger alerts.
Given a lead's score increases by a predetermined threshold due to new engagement activities, when the score reaches the threshold, then an alert notification is sent to the assigned sales representative within 2 minutes.
