Last year, we watched agencies race each other to the bottom selling “AI minutes” like it was a commodity. Meanwhile, the real opportunity was hiding in plain sight: the businesses sitting on old leads, missed calls, and stalled conversations that never turned into appointments.
In this training, we walk you through a simple framework we use to create an instant “OMG moment” on a coffee date, then convert that moment into a clean, outcome based offer. It is built around two things that still work insanely well in 2026: SMS that gets replies, and Voice AI that follows up when text alone does not finish the job.
If you want the fast track, The Instant AI Agency is a solid shortcut for building an AI agency offer without guesswork.
Why the agency with the audience wins
In 2026 and beyond, the winning agency is not the one with the fanciest AI widget. It is the one with an audience, meaning real business owner relationships you can actually get on a call or a coffee date.
This matters because technology gets copied fast, but relationships compound. If you can consistently get in front of business owners, you can sell outcomes even when the underlying AI tools change.
The only two reasons clients buy
When we sit down with a prospect, we keep it brutally simple: clients buy for only two reasons.
They believe you will make them more money.
They believe you will save them more money.
They do not buy “AI.” They buy outcomes, and your job is to make the outcome obvious through a demo, not a lecture.
The Double Banger framework (SMS first, voice second)
The Double Banger is a layered follow up system designed to book more appointments from the same lead list, without needing more ad spend.
Step 1: Send the Prince Charming SMS (the kiss of life)
This is the first message that “drops their guard” and wakes cold or dead leads back up. The concept looks like:
“Hey, it’s Dan here. Is this the same Natalie who was looking for a mortgage in August last year?”
When this is done right, we have seen reply rates commonly quoted in the 30 to 70 percent range in the training, because it feels personal and non spammy.
Step 2: Let the SMS AI bot book appointments
Once they reply, the AI takes over and moves the conversation toward booking. The big idea is simple: if the lead never responds to your first SMS, the bot does not matter, because you lost before you even started.
Step 3: Layer Voice AI after SMS to “mop up” extra appointments
Some people convert by voice, not text. So if the SMS flow stalls, or they never respond, Voice AI calls afterwards to extend the conversation and recover extra booked appointments that would otherwise be lost.
In the webinar example, the idea is you already had “A” appointments booked through SMS, and Voice AI adds “B” extra appointments on top. Those numbers were presented as illustrative placeholders, but the point is that Voice AI is an incremental conversion layer, not a replacement for SMS.
How to create the “OMG moment” on coffee dates
The “OMG moment” is when the prospect experiences the AI working and the sale gets dramatically easier. In the training, the claim is that if you can (1) trigger that moment and (2) tie it to make money or save money, it takes minimal selling skill to move a prospect into a client.
A practical way to do this is to have the client participate in the demo, even to the point of entering a phone number so they can hear the Voice AI experience live.
Live demo flow: Build a Voice AI agent fast (website URL to demo)
A major friction with Voice AI is the setup complexity: model choices, voice provider choices, prompt writing, pacing, and configuration overload. The Sales Wingman demo shown in the training reduces this to a simple flow: enter the client website URL, name the agent, pick a voice you can preview, answer a few questions, and generate a demo quickly.
Our YouTube video “This FREE Voice AI Will Close Leads 24/7 For Your Clients 🚀” includes public demo numbers you can call (USA and UK) to experience an any niche Voice AI agent.
Voice cloning: the “nobody else is doing this” advantage
Once a client wants to go live, the training shows a voice cloning workflow where you upload a sales call, isolate the salesperson voice, and clone it, then enhance the prompt using the salesperson’s speech patterns, filler words, objections, and phrasing.
The goal is Voice AI that sounds like the client’s real team, which increases trust and reduces the “robot vibe” that kills conversions.
How we price this: sell appointments, not minutes
Most agencies get trapped in per minute pricing and thin retainers. The Double Banger positioning flips that into outcome based pricing, like pay per appointment plus an optional retainer for voice operations.
Here are positioning options that were explicitly used in the training examples:
Offer SMS bot alone at a per appointment rate (example used: $60 per appointment).
Offer SMS + Voice AI at a higher per appointment rate (example used: $70 per appointment; another example later ranges $90 to $100 per appointment when adding voice).
Offer a monthly retainer for handling voice operations and possibly inbound calls too (example used: $5,000 per month in one scenario; later, $3,000 to $4,000 per month was suggested for smaller businesses when covering inbound plus outbound).
The key logic is that Voice AI costs are described as “pennies per minute,” so if you are getting paid per booked appointment, margins can be strong, and you avoid ad spend volatility that can break old pay per lead models.

Compliance and operational notes you should not skip
A few practical points from the Q&A matter if you want to run this professionally.
Calls can be transcribed, and the transcript can be fed to another AI to update CRM custom fields.
They mention adding checks to avoid calling numbers on DNC lists for compliance.
For HighLevel integrations, the training references using a private integration token and location ID, and notes that Twilio is required for telephony in their current setup.
If you are scaling SMS campaigns, you also need to account for sending limits.
Step 7: Buy a new number and ramp up slowly
If you want to go deeper on the two core pillars of this framework, here are some relevant posts:
Conclusion
If you want to book more appointments without playing the “per minute Voice AI” game, the move is simple: lead with the Prince Charming SMS to get replies, let SMS AI book what it can, then use Voice AI to recover the people who do not convert over text.
When you demo it the right way, you are not selling AI at all. You are selling a predictable outcome, and that is what clients actually pay for.
What niche would you like to deploy this in first: dentists, gyms, home services, or something else?
