AI Receptionist for FreshBooks Example Prompts
Copy and paste these prompts into your FreshBooks AI Receptionist prompt box to get started quickly.
"When a customer calls asking about an invoice, look it up in QuickBooks by their name or invoice number. Let them know the amount, due date, and current status — whether it is paid, overdue, or pending. If overdue, offer to help them make a payment."
Example 2 — Payment Confirmation:
"If a customer says they sent a payment, check QuickBooks to see if it has been recorded. If the payment shows up, confirm the amount and date received. If not, let them know it may take 1-2 business days to process and suggest they send a payment receipt for faster resolution."
Example 3 — Account Balance:
"When a customer asks about their account balance, look up their customer record in QuickBooks. Provide their current outstanding balance and list any open invoices with amounts and due dates."
See It in Action
Here's how your AI Receptionist for FreshBooks handles a real conversation.
Hey, I just want to make sure my payment went through for the website project.
I can check that for you. What's the name on the account?
Brightside Marketing.
I found your account. Your most recent invoice — #1203 for $4,500 for the website redesign project — shows a payment received on March 10th. That invoice is paid in full. You have no outstanding balance. Would you like me to email a receipt?
Frequently Asked Questions
Built for Practice Management & Accountants
Your AI receptionist works your client list — surfacing status, chasing documents, and logging every call — so your team stays on the work.
For your firm
- Stay on deadline work. Routine "where's my return?" and "what do you need from me?" calls are answered automatically, so staff aren't pulled off prep during the busy season.
- Nothing falls through. Every inbound call is logged to the client record — caller, topic, and follow-up — so the whole team has a complete history.
- Coverage that scales. After-hours and overflow calls are handled 24/7 without adding front-desk headcount as your book grows.
For your clients
- Real answers, instantly. Clients hear their actual return, project, or document status instead of waiting on hold or for a callback.
- Always reachable. Questions get answered evenings and weekends, not just during office hours.
- Clear next steps. Clients are told exactly which documents or approvals are still outstanding and how to provide them.
