## Customizing Templates

After creating an agent from a template:

1. **Edit the system prompt** — Customize with your company name, products, and policies.
2. **Add knowledge** — Upload your FAQs, product docs, and training materials.
3. **Configure tools** — Add API keys and connect to your specific services.
4. **Set up voice** — Choose a voice that matches your brand.
5. **Test** — Run test conversations to verify behavior.

### Example: Customizing the Support Template

```diff theme={null}
  Template prompt:
  "You are a customer support agent for [Company Name]."

  Customized:
+ "You are a customer support agent for Acme Corp.
+  Our products include the Widget Pro ($49.99) and
+  Widget Enterprise ($199.99). Our return policy is
+  30 days with original receipt."
```

## Creating Custom Templates

If you've built an agent configuration that you want to reuse:

1. Go to your agent's settings.
2. Click **Save as Template**.
3. Give it a name, description, and category.
4. The template is saved to your account for reuse.

Custom templates are private to your organization unless published.

## Campaign Templates

Campaigns also have templates for common outbound scenarios:

| Template                 | Description                                     |
| ------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------- |
| **Event Invitation**     | Invite contacts to an event with RSVP handling  |
| **Appointment Reminder** | Remind contacts about upcoming appointments     |
| **Survey Campaign**      | Conduct phone surveys with structured questions |
| **Re-engagement**        | Reach out to inactive customers                 |

## Best Practices

* **Start with a template, don't start from scratch** — Templates embody best practices for each use case.
* **Test before deploying** — Always run test conversations to verify the template works for your business.
* **Add your knowledge base** — Templates provide the structure; your knowledge provides the substance.
* **Iterate on the prompt** — The template prompt is a starting point. Refine it based on real conversations.
* **Save successful configurations** — When you've dialed in a great agent, save it as a template for your team.
