Inbound: the customer calls

Brown cedars and guarantee claims sent to the nursery

"My cedars are turning brown" turns into a claim with the purchase date, how they were watered and photos. The nursery manager decides once, with all of it.

When it starts

A customer calls because a plant they bought is browning, wilting or didn't leaf out.

What the agent does

Finds the purchase, asks how it was planted and watered, texts for photos, logs the claim.

What your team gets

A complete guarantee claim for the nursery manager, and urgent ones put through live.

How it works

  1. Finds the purchase

    By name, phone or receipt, with the plant, the quantity and the purchase date.

  2. Checks the guarantee

    Your guarantee terms, read as written: how long, which plants, and whether you need the receipt and the plant.

  3. Asks how it was cared for

    When it went in, how often and how long it was watered, and whether it was mulched.

  4. Gives the approved tip

    If it's a watering problem your nursery has a standard answer for, it gives it. Deep, slow soaks, not a sprinkler.

  5. Texts for photos

    A link for photos of the whole plant, close-ups of the browning, and the tag.

  6. Passes it on

    The claim goes to the nursery manager. A caller who wants a trained eye now is warm-transferred.

Example call

  1. CustomerI bought twelve cedars from you in May and a few are going brown on the bottom. Are they guaranteed?
  2. AI agentLet me look. I see twelve emerald cedars bought May 18. They're under our one-year guarantee. How have they been watered?
  3. CustomerThe sprinkler runs every other day for twenty minutes.
  4. AI agentThanks. New cedars usually do better with a slow, deep soak at the base two or three times a week. The sprinkler often doesn't reach the roots.
  5. CustomerOh. Should I still send something?
  6. AI agentYes. I'll text you a link for photos of the brown ones and a whole-row shot. Lucie in the nursery will look and call you.
  7. CustomerOkay, thanks.

After the call: A guarantee claim opens on the purchase with "lower browning on a few, sprinkler 20 min every other day". Photos came in that evening, and Lucie has it in her queue.

Questions

Will it approve a replacement?

No. It takes the claim. The nursery manager decides.

Does it diagnose plant disease?

No. Anything that sounds like a pest or disease goes to your nursery staff.

What if they don't have the receipt?

It finds the purchase by name or phone number.
