What exactly is a chatbot? And why do you need one?
Chatbots are AI-powered tools that run on your website and allow visitors to ask questions and even hold basic conversations – all on auto and without any involvement from you or your team.
What are Chatbots?
ChatBots are software applications that are configured to send messages to users in a conversational manner, just like a live chat widget. They act like digital representatives and are designed to interact with your site visitors, even when it’s 1am in the morning!
They can help with a variety of enquiries that your customers might need. It could be pointing them to the correct product, getting basic info about their enquiry for your sales team, or taking a reservation or appointment. You can build your list by effortlessly collecting information and getting vital approval to communicate with site visitors later.
With a clever AI-driven software there is no end to what you can get a ChatBot to do for you. No two ChatBots are the same because everybody has slightly different requirements.
A ChatBot is true 24/7 customer care, and even a sales person, because it can imitate a live person responding on your site. Interacting with unlimited visitors to your website, working 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year! ChatBots never stop.
While you may think that every conversation with a site visitor is different, the reality is that there are many similar components and that’s enough to construct a conversation which covers the majority of situations. It might seem like a daunting and almost impossible task for you. Fortunately, we have an experienced team and a developed set of ChatBot best practices, so actual conversation development becomes a breeze for you.

Is Easy As 1-2-3
1. Initial Meeting
First we'll have a meeting with you to understand what you'd like to achieve with a chatbot. If you're not quite sure our knowledgeable service delivery managers can help you at this stage.
2. Initial Draft
We'll create the chatbot based on our initial conversations and present a draft which you will be able to preview as though it were on your website.
Of course it's not on your site yet, we just have a system to simulate the looks and feel. After this if you have any edits we will make them.
3. Time to go Live
Once you're happy we can either insert a piece of code in your website or we can provide this for your web team to do for you.
This is a simple piece of code after which your chatbot will be live. All you have to do is sit back as the chatbot takes care of the initial enquiries and you just get email summaries.
