Train Ring Jenny on your business

On the setup screen, enter either your business website URL or your Google Business Profile URL. Ring Jenny automatically reads your site and trains itself on:
  • Your business name, address, and hours
  • Services and products you offer
  • Frequently asked questions it finds on your pages
  • Contact details and location information
Ring Jenny finishes training in under a minute. You’ll see a confirmation once it’s ready.

Customize your greeting and agent settings

Before Ring Jenny takes its first call, personalize how it introduces itself:
  • Agent name — choose a name for your AI receptionist (e.g., “Jenny,” your own name, or a custom brand name)
  • Greeting script — set the opening line callers hear when Ring Jenny picks up
  • Custom FAQs — add any questions your customers frequently ask that weren’t covered by your website
  • Business hours — optionally configure different greetings or behaviors for after-hours calls
Keep your greeting short and natural — something like “Thanks for calling [Business Name], this is Jenny speaking — how can I help you today?” works well and puts callers at ease immediately.

Test Ring Jenny with a call

Ring Jenny assigns you a unique phone number visible in your Dashboard. Call that number directly from your mobile phone to hear exactly what your customers will experience.During your test call, check that Ring Jenny:
  • Answers promptly and greets you with your custom greeting
  • Correctly answers questions about your business hours, services, and location
  • Offers to take a message or book an appointment (depending on your plan)
  • Ends the call naturally and sends you a notification summary
Try asking a tricky or unusual question — for example, something a real customer might ask that isn’t explicitly on your website. If Ring Jenny stumbles, add that topic as a custom FAQ in your dashboard.
5

Forward your business phone to Ring Jenny

Once you’re happy with your test call, redirect your existing business phone number to Ring Jenny’s number. This is what connects real customer calls to your AI receptionist.
Your Ring Jenny number is displayed on your Dashboard on Top Right. You’ll need it for the forwarding step.
For detailed instructions for your specific device or carrier — including iPhone, Android, and landline/VoIP setups — follow the complete guide:

Receive your first call notification

After forwarding is active, call your own business number from a different phone to trigger a real forwarded call. When the call ends, Ring Jenny immediately sends you:
  • An SMS notification with a summary of the call
  • An Email notification with the full call details
  • A call transcript and recording in your dashboard
Check your dashboard to confirm the call appears under Recent Calls. You’re all set — Ring Jenny is now answering your business calls around the clock.
Enable push notifications in the Ring Jenny mobile app so you’re alerted in real time even when you’re away from email.
