This walkthrough takes you from a fresh account to a fully working operator: connected CRM, connected ad account, and a first conversation that teaches Ares your business.

​
Before you start

Have these ready:
  • The email address you used at checkout
  • Login access to your HighLevel account (or book a setup call and we will provision one with you)
  • Login access to the Meta account that owns your business’s ad account and Facebook page

​
1. Create your account

Purchase a plan at aresdeploy.com. When checkout completes you are signed in to your dashboard at app.aresdeploy.com automatically. You can also sign in later with your checkout email, either with a login link or with Google sign-in if the email matches.

​
2. Run the onboarding wizard

The first time you open the dashboard, Ares walks you through setup in order:
1

Connect your CRM

Link your HighLevel account so Ares can see contacts, conversations, pipelines, and calendars. This is the single most important step: the CRM is where lead handling happens. Details and permissions are covered in CRM connection.
2

Connect your ad account

Link the Meta account that owns your ad account and page. This lets Ares launch and monitor campaigns and pull ad leads into follow-up the moment they submit. Details in Ads connection.
3

Brief your operator

Open the chat and tell Ares about your business. The more context it has, the sharper its judgment. A good first briefing covers:
  • Your trade and the services you want more of
  • Your service area, by city or radius
  • What a good lead looks like, and what a bad one looks like
  • How booked out you are right now
  • Anything you never want said to a customer
You can skip a connection during onboarding and come back to it later from the connections panel on the dashboard. Ares works with whatever is connected and tells you what it is missing.

​
3. Let it run

Once connected, Ares starts working immediately:
  • New leads get a first response within seconds. See Speed to lead.
  • Existing conversations are read and tracked so nothing gets dropped.
  • Anything requiring judgment or sign-off lands in your approval queue.

​
4. Check back the next morning

Open the dashboard with your coffee. You should see lead activity, any pending approvals, and a short picture of what happened overnight. Clear the queue, skim the numbers, and get on with your day. That rhythm, a few minutes a day, is the intended way to run Ares.
