Which plan to pickStart the 7-day trial, which needs no card. Basic suits most growing Shopify stores. Turn on the AI Agent once you know your common questions, and budget about $1 for each conversation it handles on top of the ticket price.Run the free role-plays with two or three reps first. If they keep using them, Practice covers rehearsal; only pay for Perform if you do not already have Gong or another call recorder.Individuals should take Pro on the yearly plan; it is cheap and ten sessions a week is plenty. Teams wanting their own sales scenarios need Business.
