Capabilities of chatbots.

Using the chatbot constructor Gerabot, we will analyze some features that will come in handy when implementing a chatbot bot in business.

 

Chatbot keyboard

The chatbot keyboard is the main element of navigation between chatbot scenarios. The keyboard is the easiest way for the user to move between scenarios. The keyboard in messengers is of different types, for example:

  • normal keyboard that is docked and displayed below;
  • inline keyboard that is attached to a specific chatbot message.

Different keyboard types are useful in different situations.

Keyword search

In addition to the keyboard, the bot user can interact with it using keywords, if this is provided in the chat functionality bot That is, if the user enters a phrase in which the bot finds keywords, it provides the user with an appropriate response that was programmed to search for these keywords.

On the same principle artificial intelligence works, which can also be implemented in a chatbot.

Ice generation

Lead generation is one of the key processes in chatbots. By implementing the functionality of collecting data from the user using feedback forms, the company's managers can process the information and continue working with the new lead.

The received leads can be processed in the chatbot management system itself, or transferred to the CRM system, if the appropriate API is configured between the system and the chatbot.

 

Operator connection

If the user did not find answers to the question he had when contacting the chatbot, he can use the option to connect an operator (manager) to the dialogue in the bot. At this moment, the bot management system receives a request that the bot user is waiting for the manager to connect.

Notifications can also come to the Telegram group or CRM system, if the corresponding functionality is configured in the bot designer.

 

Tags, labels and mailings

Audience segmentation is a key process for marketing in any field. Thanks to the tag functionality, the marketer can set up different groups of audiences that the bot will automatically form using the appropriate tags that are added to the bot.

In the future, the marketer can easily work with the relevant audiences, interact with them, send messages through the chatbot.

 

User Variables

The functionality of the Gerabot chatbot builder provides the ability to use custom variables, which in the future, in the chatbot, can be used to provide personalized information to bot users.

Using variables, the functionality of the bot can be significantly expanded, even with the possibility of implementing a personal account of the user in the chatbot.

Multilingualism

If the company operates in several regions, the chatbot can be configured in different languages. In this case, the user can change the chatbot's language at any time, and the bot's content will be displayed in the appropriate language.

There are cases when even the structure of the chatbot may differ depending on the language chosen by the user.

Chat for the site

The implementation of chatbot functionality in chat on the site increases the consultant's conversion several times and provides additional opportunities for interaction and retention of the target audience. A chatbot for a website has the same capabilities for interacting with customers as chatbots in messengers.

Also, thanks to the bot for the site, the administrator can implement the functionality of automatic calls to action depending on the behavior of the site user.

CRM system

The Gerabot chatbot management system includes the functionality of the CRM system, for example, such as: management of leads and customers. Therefore, usually, the Gerabot system is sufficient not only for creating a chatbot or connecting a chat for the site, but also for fully managing the data of the company's leads and customers.

Chat bot implementation

The introduction of a bot into a business consists of several stages:

  • detection of processes to be automated by the company's chatbot;
  • chatbot flow chart development;
  • identifying the functional needs of the chatbot, and making a decision on the development of an individual project or setting up the chatbot on the constructor;
  • developing/customizing and filling the bot with content.

 

Identifying the processes to be implemented in the chatbot.
