The problem

The company's external communications, from sales follow-ups to customer service and collections, needed to be clearer and more effective.

What happened

"The improved communications have increased sales conversion rates through enhanced follow ups, enhanced the customer experience measured by net promoter score, and bolstered our collections process," Wright said. No percentages are given. Company-reported.

How to set it up yourself

  1. What Native does: its sales follow-ups, customer service messages and collections messages are refined with AI.
  2. Pull your five most-used templates: quote follow-up, service reminder, complaint reply, past-due notice and cancellation save.
  3. Run each through the prompt below, keep your facts and policies exactly as they are, and have the person who sends it approve the new version.
  4. Track one number per template for a month before and after: follow-up close rate, NPS or days to pay.

Copy-paste prompt

Rewrite this {TYPE, e.g. past-due reminder / quote follow-up} from {COMPANY NAME}, a pest control company, so it's clearer, shorter and friendlier, while staying firm where it needs to be: {CURRENT MESSAGE}. Keep every amount, date, policy and service detail exactly as written. Give me two versions: a text under 300 characters and an email. Don't add discounts or promises.
