2. Use messenger chatbots for automated customer service through MobileMonkey.
Customer service is extremely important, especially as we move towards a more customer-centric business model.
But it’s no secret that it can eat up a lot of time.
In addition, supporting huge customer service teams can be unsustainable, especially for small businesses or entrepreneurs.
What if I told you there was a way to automate your customer service?
Well, you’re in luck!
With MobileMonkey, you can create and implement customer support chatbots through Facebook Messenger.
These chatbots are programmed to provide your customers with the information that they need about your business.
You can program your chatbot to talk about anything; simply create the dialogue from within the MobileMonkey chatbot builder.
Beyond creating dialogues that lead users through a Facebook Messenger funnel, you can set up your bots to be FAQ chatbots, recognizing certain trigger words and providing the correct dialogue.
For example, if a customer asks about your business’s “hours,” or “prices,” or “demos,” then your chatbot will recognize those words and pull up the subsequent dialogues.
Chatbots take minutes to create and save businesses tons of money and time.
