AI Voice Agent Development & Integration Workflow
This document outlines the standard operating procedure for developing custom AI voice agents, integrating with CallFluent.ai, cloning client voices using 11Labs, and integrating with the Kynect Digital CRM automation platform.
Understand client's sales process and develop consultative script methodology
Record client's voice and create psychology-based conversational scripts
Build and configure the voice agent with cloned voice and scripts
Integrate voice agent with client's Kynect Digital CRM and conduct thorough testing
Phase 1: Client Discovery & Sales Psychology Analysis
1.1 Initial Client Consultation
Schedule a comprehensive discovery call to understand:
- Current lead generation and qualification process
- Typical customer objections and pain points
- Client's natural conversation style and terminology
- Key performance metrics and goals
- Integration requirements with existing systems
1.2 Sales Process Mapping
Document the client's existing sales methodology:
- How do leads currently contact the business?
- What questions do prospects typically ask?
- What are the most common objections?
- What triggers prospects to schedule appointments?
- What language resonates best with their target market?
1.3 Develop Consultative Script Strategy
Create a psychology-based approach that:
- Uses discovery questions to understand caller motivations
- Employs "Feel, Felt, Found" methodology for connection
- Implements early closing when defenses are down
- Positions consultations as valuable and risk-free
- Works WITH the subconscious mind instead of against it
Phase 2: Voice Cloning & Script Development
2.1 Voice Recording Session
Schedule a 20-30 minute recording session with the client:
Recording Requirements:
- Environment: Quiet room with minimal echo
- Equipment: Good quality microphone (USB or professional)
- Format: WAV or high-quality MP3 (minimum 44.1kHz, 16-bit)
- Duration: 10-15 minutes of clear speech minimum
Recording Script for Voice Cloning:
2.2 11Labs Voice Cloning Process
- Upload Recording: Access 11Labs platform and upload the client's voice recording
- Voice Training: Allow 11Labs to process and train the voice model (typically 5-10 minutes)
- Quality Testing: Generate test samples with various scripts to ensure quality
- Voice Refinement: Adjust settings if needed for optimal naturalness
- Export Configuration: Save voice settings for CallFluent integration
2.3 Conversational Script Development
Create comprehensive scripts based on the client's specific industry and methodology:
Industry-specific questions that uncover pain points and motivations
Empathy-building responses that create connection and trust
Psychology-based closing when prospect defenses are down
Consultative responses that eliminate objections before they arise
Phase 3: CallFluent.ai Configuration
3.1 Agent Setup
Configure the voice agent in CallFluent.ai platform:
Use client's actual name or designated representative name
Upload the 11Labs cloned voice or select appropriate alternative
Configure Twilio or client's preferred phone system integration
Set appropriate timezone for client's business location
3.2 Behavior Configuration

4.1 Kynect Digital Account Setup
If client doesn't have existing Kynect Digital account:
- Create sub-account in your agency Kynect Digital dashboard
- Configure basic settings and branding
- Set up client's domain and email authentication
- Import existing contacts if applicable
4.2 Lead Capture Integration
Configure CallFluent to send appointment data to Kynect Digital:
Webhook Configuration:
4.3 Automation Workflows
Set up automated follow-up sequences in Kynect Digital:
- Appointment Confirmation: SMS/Email confirmation sent immediately
- Appointment Reminder: 24-hour and 2-hour reminders
- No-Show Follow-up: Automated rescheduling sequence
- Post-Consultation: Thank you message and next steps
4.4 Calendar Integration
Connect client's calendar system:
- Set up calendar in Kynect Digital (Google Calendar, Outlook, etc.)
- Configure availability windows
- Set buffer times between appointments
- Enable automatic calendar booking from voice agent
Phase 5: Testing & Quality Assurance
5.1 Voice Quality Testing
Comprehensive testing of the voice agent:
- Voice Naturalness: Does the cloned voice sound natural and authentic?
- Response Accuracy: Does the agent follow the consultative methodology?
- Conversation Flow: Are transitions smooth and logical?
- Edge Cases: How does the agent handle unusual questions or hostile callers?
5.2 Integration Testing
Test all system integrations:
- Place test calls and verify conversation quality
- Confirm appointment data flows to GHL correctly
- Test calendar booking functionality
- Verify automated follow-up sequences trigger
- Check all webhook integrations work properly
5.3 Performance Benchmarking
Establish baseline metrics:
| Metric | Target Range | Measurement Method |
|---|---|---|
| Appointment Setting Rate | 15-35% | Appointments scheduled / total calls |
| Average Call Duration | 3-8 minutes | Call log analysis |
| Call Completion Rate | 85%+ | Completed calls / answered calls |
| Appointment Show Rate | 60-80% | Attended appointments / scheduled |
Phase 6: Client Training & Handover

Voice Agent Onboarding Checklist
Troubleshooting Common Issues
Voice Quality Problems
If the cloned voice doesn't sound natural:
- Check recording quality - ensure minimal background noise
- Verify sufficient voice samples (minimum 10 minutes of clear speech)
- Re-record with consistent tone and pacing
- Adjust 11Labs voice settings for stability vs. similarity
- Test with different emotional tones and speaking speeds
Conversation Flow Issues
If the agent doesn't follow the consultative methodology:
- Review and refine the instruction prompts in CallFluent
- Ensure scripts include specific example responses
- Adjust creativity settings (lower for more script adherence)
- Add more specific context about the client's industry
- Include more examples of the "feel, felt, found" technique
Integration Failures
If Kynect Digital integration isn't working properly:
- Verify webhook URLs are correctly configured
- Check API credentials and permissions
- Test webhook endpoints with sample data
- Review Kynect Digital automation trigger conditions
- Ensure field mapping matches between systems
Low Appointment Setting Rates
If conversion rates are below target:
- Review call recordings to identify conversation patterns
- Refine discovery questions to better uncover pain points
- Strengthen the "feel, felt, found" connection building
- Adjust timing of the early close technique
- Enhance value positioning of the consultation
Performance Optimization Strategies
A/B Testing Framework
Continuously improve performance through systematic testing:
Welcome Message Variations:
- Version A: Direct business introduction
- Version B: Question-focused opening

- Specific: "What's your biggest concern about [specific issue]?"
- Problem-focused: "What situation are you hoping to resolve?"
Data-Driven Improvements
Use analytics to guide optimization decisions:
| Metric | Analysis Method | Optimization Action |
|---|---|---|
| Call Drop Rate | Track when callers hang up during conversation | Refine opening or reduce response length |
| Objection Frequency | Identify most common objections raised | Strengthen objection prevention in script |
| Appointment No-Shows | Compare scheduling success vs. actual attendance | Improve qualification or follow-up process |
| Call Duration vs. Success | Correlate call length with appointment setting | Optimize conversation pacing and close timing |
