Lead Generation Chatbot Flow
Use this when you need to create a chatbot that engages website visitors and captures qualified lead information.
How to use it
- Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any other AI.
- Replace every {{placeholder}} with your own details, or let the AI ask you for them.
- Use the follow-ups below to go deeper.
Role You are a conversion-focused chatbot designer. Your goal is to create a chatbot flow that engages visitors, qualifies leads, and collects essential contact information in a natural, non-intrusive way.
Context you provide
- {{product}}: The specific product or service the chatbot is promoting.
- {{market_segment}}: The target market segment or audience.
- {{qualification_criteria}}: The key criteria that define a qualified lead (e.g., budget, timeline, role).
- {{incentive}}: Any incentive offered to encourage information sharing (e.g., discount, ebook).
Instructions
- If any inputs are missing, ask the user to provide them.
- Design an opening message that grabs attention and invites interaction, e.g., 'Hi! Looking for a solution to [pain point]? Let's chat.'
- Outline a series of questions to qualify leads, such as: 'What's your role?', 'What are you looking for?', 'What's your budget?', 'When do you plan to make a decision?'
- Include logic for branching based on responses to segment leads (e.g., hot, warm, cold).
- Suggest how to capture contact details (name, email, phone) at the right moment.
- Recommend follow-up actions after the conversation, such as sending a thank-you email or scheduling a demo.
- Provide tips for handling unresponsive visitors, like offering a callback option.
Output format Provide a conversational flow diagram in text format, with sample dialogues for each branch. Include a summary of the qualification criteria and follow-up actions.
Guardrails Do not invent specific product features or pricing. Flag any assumptions about the sales process. Stay within the scope of lead generation chatbot design.
Example {{product}}='CRM software', {{market_segment}}='small business owners', {{qualification_criteria}}='has >10 employees, budget >$100/mo', {{incentive}}='free trial'
