Introduction
With Lofty, you can control your Sales Agent directly by text message, just like you would message a teammate. Instead of navigating through settings, simply send a message to your Sales Agent and it will understand and act on your instructions.
What Is “Command by Text”?
Commanding your Sales Agent by text allows you to:
- Send instructions in plain language
- Make changes instantly—no settings required
- Interact with your AI assistant in a more natural, conversational way
You can reply to a Daily Brief or text your Sales Agent at any time to give it instructions.
How It Works
Send a Text Command
There are two ways to interact with your Sales Agent:
- Reply to an existing message (like your Daily Brief)
- Start a new text to your Sales Agent anytime
Once you send a message, the Sales Agent will interpret your instruction and take action immediately.
Use Natural Language
You don’t need special commands or keywords. Simply type what you want, for example:
- “Stop following these leads”
- “Pause outreach for now”
- “Focus on buyers only”
Your Sales Agent is designed to understand conversational instructions and act on them.
What You Can Do by Text
Give Instructions (Reply and Act)
You can send instructions to control how your Sales Agent works with your leads.
- Adjust how the agent engages with leads
- Stop or change follow-up behavior
- Provide direction in real time
The Sales Agent will carry out your request as soon as it receives your message.
Turn Briefs On or Off
You can control your Daily Brief notifications by text:
- Example: “Stop sending me the daily brief”
The change takes effect immediately—no need to open your settings.
Rename Your Sales Agent
You can personalize your Sales Agent’s identity by text:
- Example: “Call yourself Sophie from now on”
Your chosen name will be used in:
- Messages sent to leads
- Your CRM timeline
Why This Matters
Commanding your Sales Agent by text helps you:
- Move faster — no need to navigate settings
- Stay flexible — adjust behavior in real time
- Work more naturally — communicate with your AI like a teammate
This feature removes friction and makes your Sales Agent feel like a true assistant, rather than a background automation. Think of your Sales Agent like a team member you can text anytime. If something changes in your workflow—like a shift in priorities or lead strategy—send a quick message to keep your Sales Agent aligned.
