Getting Started with ewpire v2: From Purchase to First Result

TL;DR: You subscribe, receive an email with a Telegram link, tap through 8 onboarding questions, and your agent sends you a real first output. Total time from checkout to working agent: under 10 minutes. This article walks you through every screen and every question so there are no surprises.

Who this is for

This guide is written for three types of readers.

Managing Partners and Partners at professional services firms – consulting, accounting, legal, staffing – who are evaluating whether an AI employee can handle lead qualification, document processing, or tender research without adding headcount.

VP Sales and Head of Sales Operations at B2B services companies who want to run more outreach at higher quality without hiring another SDR. The Sales Agent and Lead Qualification Agent are the primary tools here.

COOs and VP Operations at mid-market companies in manufacturing, e-commerce B2B, logistics, or import/export who need a force multiplier for back-office work: document processing, support escalation routing, competitive research.

If you are in one of these roles, this walkthrough shows exactly what using ewpire looks like.

Step 1: Checkout (2 minutes)

Go to ewpire.com/pricing. Select your plan – Starter if you want to start with one agent and a 3-day trial, Pro if you need three, Business if you need the full roster.

Checkout is a standard Stripe flow. Enter your email, card details, and billing address. If you have a valid EU VAT ID, enter it at checkout and the reverse charge mechanism applies automatically – you pay 0% VAT and receive a compliant invoice.

After payment, you see a confirmation screen. In the background, your dedicated agent environment is already being provisioned. This typically takes about a minute.

Step 2: The welcome email

The email arrives with the subject "Your agent is setting up." It contains one button: Meet your agent. This button is a Telegram deep-link that binds your Stripe email to your agent environment.

Click it on any device with Telegram installed – iPhone, Android, desktop. Telegram opens and the bot sends you a welcome message within a second.

If you are on Mac Safari and the deep-link does not carry through correctly, open Telegram directly, search for @ewpirecom_bot, and type /start. The bot finds your account from the email address and the binding completes identically.

Step 3: The 8-question onboarding

This is the core of setup. The bot asks 8 questions, each with an inline keyboard so you tap rather than type. It takes 3–4 minutes. Here is what each question does.

Question 1: Communication language

You see a grid of 9 language buttons – English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Polish, Dutch, Swedish, Russian – plus an "Other" option to type any language you need.

This controls how the bot talks to you: status messages, error notices, confirmations, clarifying questions. It is not the language of content your agent produces. That comes later.

A VP Sales in a Chicago firm taps English. A Managing Partner running a German consulting firm taps Deutsch. Both are right.

Question 2: Company name

Free text, under 80 characters. The agent uses this name in every context it operates with – email signatures, customer-facing responses, reports it generates for you.

Question 3: What your company does

One sentence. The bot gives an example: "B2B SaaS, 50–200 employees, VP Sales." But the prompt works for any business. A logistics COO might type: "We provide 3PL warehousing and last-mile fulfillment to e-commerce brands in the US Midwest."

This sentence feeds every agent output. A generic answer ("we're a consulting firm") produces generic output. A specific answer produces work that sounds like someone who actually knows your business.

Question 4: Your role

You see 7 role buttons: CEO/Founder, Managing Partner, VP Sales/CRO, COO/Head of Ops, Head of HR, CFO/Finance, CMO/Growth, plus an "Other" option.

The agent adjusts its communication register based on your role. C-level gets concise strategic framing. Operational roles get more tactical detail. The difference is noticeable on longer outputs like reports and proposals.

Question 5: Your ideal customer

Industry, company size, decision-maker. Example for a staffing agency: "Professional services firms, 50–300 employees, HR Directors and COOs in the UK and US."

If you have a Sales Agent, this directly shapes who it researches and how it frames outreach. If you have Lead Qualification, this sets the scoring criteria. If you have Research, this focuses competitive intelligence on your actual competitive landscape.

Question 6: Brand voice

Five buttons: Formal, Conversational, Technical, Bold, Playful. This governs how content-producing agents write – not just words but sentence structure and register.

A law firm taps Formal. A marketing agency might tap Conversational or Bold. A manufacturing COO running the Tender Agent taps Technical – bid responses should sound precise, not friendly.

Question 7: Content output language(s)

The most important distinction in the entire onboarding: this is separate from Question 1.

Question 7 controls the language of what your agent produces – emails it sends, articles it writes, proposals and tender responses it drafts. Question 1 controls how it talks to you.

A German accounting firm Managing Partner might set communication language to German (Q1) but content language to English (Q7) if their clients are primarily US companies. Both settings coexist. An operator they invite later picks their own communication language but inherits the business-wide content language setting.

Starter plan: one content language. Pro: up to three. Business: unlimited.

Question 8: Agent-specific question

This question adapts to the agent you selected.

If you chose the Sales Agent, you see four email framework options: PAS (Problem-Agitate-Solve), BAB (Before-After-Bridge), QVC (Question-Value-CTA), AIDA (Attention-Interest-Desire-Action). The agent uses your choice as the default starting framework but selects per-email based on prospect seniority and context. You can also tap "Let me decide per email" and be prompted on each send.

If you chose the Research Agent, the bot asks for your top 3 competitors – domains or company names.

If you chose the HR Screener, it asks for the role you are actively screening and the seniority level.

If you chose the Tender Agent, it asks for your sector and geographic focus for bid monitoring.

If you chose the Executive Concierge, it asks for your timezone and one task type to handle autonomously.

One question. One tap or short sentence. That is all.

Step 4: The activation message

After Question 8, the bot sends a one-sentence recap of everything it now knows about your business. Then it offers a pre-filled first task.

For a Sales Agent: "Draft a cold email to a VP Operations at a logistics company using the BAB framework." You see this in a tap-to-send format. Tap it and within 30–60 seconds you have a complete cold email personalized to your company voice, your ICP, and your framework choice.

This is not a demo. It is a real deliverable using the setup you just provided.

Step 5: Using your agent day-to-day

After setup, your agent works through plain-language messages. No special syntax. If you want to research a specific company before a sales meeting, message your Research Agent. If you want 10 variations of a follow-up email, ask your Sales Agent. If you need to qualify a new inbound lead against your criteria, ask Lead Qualification.

The agent remembers the last 10 turns of your conversation as rolling context. Run /memory to review what was discussed. Run /reset to clear memory and start fresh.

For Pro and Business subscribers: use /use <slug> to switch between agents. Your Sales Agent has different memory from your Research Agent – they do not share context unless you explicitly use /transfer to hand off a conversation with a summary.

Inviting a colleague (Pro and Business)

Run /invite sales [email protected]. Jane receives an email with a Telegram link. She clicks it, answers 2 questions (her preferred language, then sees your company context), and she is using the Sales Agent within 3 minutes.

One rule: exclusive access. One active conversation per agent at a time. If Jane is mid-session with the Sales Agent, you wait or work with a different agent. You can always view history and stats while an operator is active.

Run /operators list to see who is using what. Run /operators revoke <id> to remove access immediately.

What your agent cannot do

Clarity here saves frustration later.

The Sales Agent sends up to 50 personalized emails per day. It does not do mass blast – every email is researched and individualized. Daily limits are the same across all plans.

Agents work through Telegram. There is no web dashboard for chatting with your agent – the conversation interface lives in Telegram. ewpire.com/account covers billing and plan management.

WhatsApp integration is in the roadmap but not available in the current release. Telegram, Slack, Discord, Signal, Microsoft Teams, and several other channels are available now via /channels.

What to expect in the first week

Day 1: Complete onboarding, run your first 5–10 tasks. Get a feel for how the agent responds to your business context and adjust brand voice or ICP if the outputs feel off.

Day 2–3: Start using the agent for real work. For a Sales Agent, that means letting it research real prospects and draft emails for your review. For a Tender Agent, point it at an active bid.

Day 7: Run /report to see the week's activity digest. Look at task volume, output quality, any escalations. Adjust settings if needed via /settings.

By end of week one, you should have a clear picture of whether the agent is a fit for your workload – and the 14-day money-back guarantee means you can make that decision without financial risk.
