Setting Up Your First AI Assistant: A Step-by-Step Guide

Getting started with BlomJacobsen is straightforward. Here's a complete walkthrough to have your AI receptionist live and taking calls.

Step 1: Create Your Account

Sign up at blomjacobsen.dk with your email address. No credit card is required for the 14-day free trial.

Step 2: Configure Your Assistant

In the dashboard, create a new AI assistant. You'll set: - **Name**: Give your assistant a name (e.g., "Anna" or "Reception") - **Voice**: Choose from several natural-sounding Danish voices - **Greeting**: Define how the AI should answer calls (e.g., "Tak for at ringe til Hansen Tandklinik, hvad kan jeg hjaelpe med?") - **Business context**: Add information about your services, hours, and common questions

Step 3: Connect a Phone Number

You can either: - **Forward your existing number**: Set up call forwarding from your current business phone - **Get a new number**: We can provision a new Danish +45 number for you

Step 4: Test It

Call your connected number to hear your AI assistant in action. Make adjustments to the greeting, responses, and behavior as needed.

Step 5: Go Live

Once you're happy with the setup, your AI receptionist is ready for real calls. Monitor everything from your dashboard — see call logs, read transcripts, and track analytics.

Tips for Success

  • Start with a clear, professional greeting
  • Add your most common customer questions to the assistant's knowledge base
  • Set up call forwarding rules for urgent matters
  • Review transcripts regularly to refine the AI's responses
