# AI receptionist for retail — answer stock questions and book showroom visits

Local Retail & Showrooms · AI Customer Support · India

High-ticket shoppers still call for size, stock, and “store open?”. Vocora answers from your sheet, books the visit, and hands hot interest to floor staff.

**Vocora** runs [Voice AI](https://vocora.in/voice-ai) and [WhatsApp AI](https://vocora.in/whatsapp-ai) on the number you already publish — Hindi, English, or Hinglish. Built for Showrooms and regional retail chains.

## Context for this vertical (public figures)

Market scale and channel facts below are from public sources — not Vocora customer metrics. We do not invent conversion rates or “X businesses live.”

## The local retail & showrooms phone problem (India)

Retail showrooms — furniture, electronics, fashion, jewellery — publish a phone that rings while floor staff are with walk-ins. Missed “is this in stock?” calls become marketplace orders.

WhatsApp on personal phones creates conflicting promises on the same SKU. High-ticket interest dies without a same-day callback.

Vocora reads stock from rules/sheets you share and books visits. Discounts and closing stay with humans.

Showroom staff selling on the floor cannot also be the stock hotline. Vocora answers “available?” from your sheet and books the visit so the floor knows who is coming — discounts still close in person.

## What breaks when the desk cannot pick up

### Pains

- Floor busy with walk-ins — stock calls missed
- Conflicting WhatsApp promises on the same SKU
- High-ticket interest without same-day callback
- After-hours “store open?” rings hit voicemail

### Voice · live

- Showroom receptionist for missed rings
- Outbound follow-up on high-ticket interest

## How Vocora works for local retail & showrooms

A typical loop on your published number. Exact scripts are set in a workshop before go-live — integrations beyond CRM / sheet write-back are scoped in the demo.

1. Shopper calls or WhatsApps the showroom number.
2. Bot answers stock / size from sheet you maintain (scoped).
3. Store visit booked; floor notified with interest note.
4. WhatsApp confirm + location pin; reminder before visit.
5. High-ticket silent leads get outbound voice qualify.
6. Price negotiation → warm handoff to floor manager.

### At a glance

- Customer asks product
- WA shares options + books visit
- Voice confirms big-ticket visits
- Post-visit follow-up on WA
- Payment due sequences
- Floor staff get only walk-in ready leads

## FAQ — Local Retail & Showrooms

### Does Vocora replace my showroom front desk?

No. Vocora answers overflow, missed, and after-hours calls on your published number and handles WhatsApp booking or qualification so humans can focus on walk-ins and complex decisions.

### Will it work on our existing phone number?

Yes. Voice AI sits on the number you already publish on Google, Justdial, Meta ads, or your board. Customers do not dial a separate robot number.

### Can it speak Hindi, English, and Hinglish?

Yes. English, Hindi, and Hinglish are day-one languages. Exact greeting, escalation rules, and phrases are set in your script workshop before go-live.

### Is WhatsApp AI live?

Yes. WhatsApp AI and Voice AI are both live on Vocora. Templates, shared inbox, and voice ↔ chat handoffs are scoped in the demo for your vertical.

### Do you integrate with our CRM or booking software?

CRM / Google Sheet / email write-back is part of the Voice desk. Deeper industry connectors are scoped in the demo — we do not claim universal one-click magic.

### How much does it cost?

Pilots are scoped after a free 15-minute demo. We do not publish a fake rate card. See our AI receptionist cost guide for how Indian voice offerings are typically framed in the market.

### How do I book a demo?

No. It shares stock/availability you approve and books visits. Pricing and offers stay with floor staff.
