How It Works

Three steps. No manual work.

Plug FranFunnel into any lead source. Every new candidate gets a personalized text in under 60 seconds — your team only sees the warm ones.

  1. A lead comes in

    From any source, any time — web form, broker, or ad. FranFunnel is always listening.

  2. FranFunnel texts them instantly

    A personalized message goes out in under 60 seconds. No rep needed. No delays.

  3. Your team takes over

    Not a cold lead. A warm candidate who already heard from you first. Reps can also step in any time — the moment they message manually, FranFunnel stands down.

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.
