Chirp's New AI-Focused Platform

AI is moving faster than most service businesses can keep up with. Voice agents. Text automation. Follow-up systems. AI sales emails. Predictive messaging. But here's the real question:

How do you use AI to convert more leads without losing the human touch?

In this episode of Service Business Mastery, Tersh Blissett and Joshua Crouch sit down with Ryan Fenn, CEO at CHIIRP, to break down what's actually working in AI-driven lead conversion right now.

They dive into:

• Why speed to lead still wins (and why seconds matter)

• How one word in your follow-up could be killing 90 percent of your conversions

• Why most contractors misuse AI for sales emails

• How to "download your brain" into systems using AI

• Why tools are becoming commodities and experience is becoming king

• How AI agents are replacing static drip campaigns

If you're a service business owner trying to figure out how to adopt AI without sounding robotic, this episode will give you clarity, strategy, and practical application.
