Future Consult

AI growth systems for Swiss B2B teams — from first qualified conversation to 24/7 support — without hiring a tech team.

What we automate

Focused systems for revenue and operations — not a generic chatbot gallery.

Sales & pipeline

AI SDR outreach, follow-ups, booking, and CRM hygiene so your team spends time on qualified conversations.

Support assistants

Website / WhatsApp assistants grounded in your knowledge base (RAG with source citations), plus clear handoff to humans.

Ops workflows

Scheduling across channels, document routing, and internal assistants connected to Notion, Drive, or CRM.

How engagement works

Market-standard shape for 2026 boutique AI delivery — each phase is a separate decision.

1. Discovery

Process map, ROI hypotheses, risk notes, and a fixed Build SoW. Audit fee is credited if you continue.

2. Build

Thin-slice production system with integrations, evaluation on your sample data, and team training.

3. Run

Optional monthly ops: monitoring, prompt drift, KPI reporting vs baseline, and small iterations.

Outcomes we optimize for

Experiment page uses anonymized Swiss-SME style results. Named logos/case studies to be added when approved for publication.

HVAC · CH +20% new clients

Booking + reminder automation with CRM updates for a heating installation company.

E-commerce · CH +40% qualified leads

AI sales follow-up for a home décor store — measured over 60 days against prior outbound baseline.

B2B support · CH −60% support cost load

Removed from this experiment: UAE property-portal automation (Propertyfinder / Bayut) — it conflicted with Swiss SME positioning. Human-vs-AI “15× productivity / zero sickness” claims also removed in favor of process baselines.

Trust, data, governance lite

Enough structure for Swiss/EU SMEs without enterprise theatre.

Data & hosting

  • Encryption in transit and at rest
  • Servers in Switzerland or EU
  • NDA + Swiss DPA / GDPR commitments

AI governance lite

FAQ

Short answers for first calls.

How long until results?

Most pilots show a measurable signal within 30 days if a baseline exists. Full module delivery is typically 14–30 days; the Growth Engine is scoped to 90 days.

Do we need engineers on our side?

No. We implement and train your operators. You need a process owner and access to the tools we integrate.

Can we start with one module?

Yes. Most clients start with Discovery, then pick Assistants or Sales Acceleration. Run is optional after go-live.

Who pays for model / API usage?

You do, transparently. We estimate usage in Discovery and keep it outside the fixed delivery fee unless you choose a managed bundle.
