It shows the session&#8217;s state (Dialing, Live, Wrap up or Paused), the dial mode and line count, the campaign name, and <strong>Elapsed<\/strong>, <strong>Attempts<\/strong>, <strong>Live answers<\/strong>, <strong>Voicemails<\/strong> and <strong>Remaining<\/strong>. Your <strong>Pause<\/strong> and <strong>End session<\/strong> buttons are on the right of it.<\/li>\n<li>If you set a goal, the <strong>Session goal<\/strong> line under the bar tracks it.<\/li>\n<li>The <strong>Lines<\/strong> card on the left shows what every line is doing, numbered 1 up to your line count, with a pill such as <strong>Dialing<\/strong>, <strong>Ringing<\/strong>, <strong>Live<\/strong> or <strong>Leaving VM<\/strong>, and a meter as the dialer ramps up.<\/li>\n<li>When someone answers, their card fills the middle: name, phone, property address, the list they came from, their last result and when they were last called, and a timer.<\/li>\n<li>Under the name are the call&#8217;s buttons: <strong>Mute<\/strong> (M), <strong>It&#8217;s a voicemail<\/strong> (G), <strong>Book appointment<\/strong>, <strong>Text<\/strong> and <strong>Hang up<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>Use the tabs under the card: <strong>Conversation<\/strong>, <strong>History<\/strong> and <strong>Contact record<\/strong>. Conversation opens first on every call.<\/li>\n<li>On the right, <strong>How did it go?<\/strong> holds the results (keys 1 to 8), then <strong>Notes<\/strong> with <strong>Send this lead<\/strong>, then <strong>Session controls<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Good to know<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>The Conversation tab leads with the property: owner, links such as Zillow, beds, baths, estimated value and last sale. Below it, the live call coach (with RealDialer AI) sits beside your script, and a row shows the last result, last call, email and their local time.<\/li>\n<li>Without the AI upgrade there is no coach, and the script takes the full width.<\/li>\n<li>When nobody is on the line, the middle card shows <strong>Working the list<\/strong> with a log of every dial, ring, answer and release.<\/li>\n<li>If an iPhone or Google call screening assistant picks up and asks who is calling, the line shows <strong>Screener<\/strong>. Say your name and why you are calling; the person may pick up.<\/li>\n<li>If a coach joins the call, a badge at the top says who and whether they are listening, whispering or on the call.<\/li>\n<li>The left menu folds down to icons during a session to give the call more room.<\/li>\n<li>The screen restores from the server if the page reloads. In browser audio sessions, a reload hangs up your audio.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Once you start your session, the Dialer becomes the live call screen.
