Getting Started
Begin your AI Growth System® implementation with a clear understanding of the platform architecture, prerequisites, and initial configuration steps.
Overview
The AI Growth System® is a comprehensive automation infrastructure built on top of HighLevel (GoHighLevel). This documentation provides operational implementation guides for every module in the system — from CRM configuration to advanced AI workflows.
This manual is organized around operational workflow, not features. Each section walks you through real implementation steps in the order you need them.
Who This Is For
- Agency owners deploying AI Growth System for clients
- Implementation specialists configuring sub-accounts
- Operations managers maintaining live systems
- Technical staff building advanced integrations
System Architecture
The AI Growth System operates across three layers:
| Layer | Purpose | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Foundation | Core platform configuration | CRM, contacts, pipelines, custom fields |
| Automation | Workflow and communication engines | Email, SMS, workflows, funnels |
| Intelligence | AI-powered systems | Voice AI, Conversation AI, smart routing |
Implementation Order
Follow this sequence for a clean deployment:
- Core Setup — Account configuration, domain, DNS, and brand settings
- CRM — Pipelines, contact fields, smart lists, and segmentation
- Calendar — Booking calendars and scheduling widgets
- Email & SMS — Communication channels and deliverability
- Workflows — Automation sequences and trigger logic
- Funnels — Landing pages and conversion paths
- AI Systems — Voice AI and Conversation AI configuration
- Reputation — Review management and automated requests
- Integrations — Third-party connections and webhook setup
- Advanced — Multi-location, SaaS mode, and white-label architecture
Prerequisites
Before beginning implementation, ensure you have:
- An active HighLevel account (Agency or Sub-Account level)
- Domain access for DNS configuration
- Email sending domain verified
- Twilio or LC Phone number provisioned
- Admin access to the target sub-account
