- Generate automatic follow-up content after calls
You can create multiple playbooks for different scenarios, such as:
- Inbound sales calls
- Outbound confirmation calls
- Dispatch calls
- Any specialized call type your business handles

Understanding Task Types
Playbooks support three types of tasks:
1. No Action
- Basic questions with no additional actions
- AI automatically marks these as completed when detected in conversation
- Example: "What is your move date?"
2. Generate Email
- Creates follow-up emails based on call content
- Identified by the "Send Email" task label
- After the call, salespeople can click a button to generate a personalized email
- The description field acts as a prompt for how to structure the email
- Example prompt: "Include move date, items being moved, and reference any personal information mentioned during the call. Use a friendly tone."
3. Custom (Generate Content)
- Extracts specific information from the call transcript
- Perfect for creating inventory lists, quotes, or summary documents
- After the call, a button appears to generate the custom content
- Example: Automatically generate a complete inventory list from items mentioned during the call
Creating Multiple Playbooks
To create different playbooks for various call types:

Best Practices for Setting Up Playbooks

- Organize Logically: Structure questions in a natural conversation flow
- Include Follow-up Generators: Add email and content generation tasks to save time after calls
- Review and Refine: Regularly update your playbooks based on what works best
By effectively setting up playbooks in Copilot, you can ensure consistent customer interactions across your team while saving significant time on post-call documentation and follow-up.
