Revision as of 19:42, 16 June 2019

This is a bot add-on:

1. Get this addon:
2. Configure in left menu:
3. Get more help:


The Support Bot Add-On turns your Personal Bot (can be either standard or model) into a 24/7 support machine. Your customers send inquiries directly to the bot (using IM). The Bot then accepts these messages and notifies your human support about a new message.

Overview

The bot stands in your office and customers are able to IM the bot:

  • bot accepts customers' messages and stores them in the database
  • a notification is sent to your human support staff
  • human support (or you) pick up the message(s) and reply
  • can be disabled when actively using Live IMs
  • includes integration with Telegram! (Read more)

You won't loose a single message: bot is online 24/7. All IMs are being stored in a database, and you can access them using a web browser.

Support Bot activity step by step

The following steps describe the work of the Support Bot. You can try it live at the SmartBots office (we use this bot ourselves).

Step 1. Accept visitor's messages

Position your Support Bot in your parcel. Show that bot accepts support inquiries (a poster is available).

  1. Visitor starts by sending an IM to the bot.
  2. Bot sees that someone is typing a message and replies immediately: "Welcome ResidentName! I'm a support bot. Please send your inquiry to me, I shall forward it to our online managers."
  3. Visitor sends the first line of the message (for example, "Hi")
  4. Bot replies: "...please keep typing your message. Say "done" when you finish typing your question/inquiry."
  5. Bot records the message until visitor says "done"

Step 2. Deliver messages to all your human support

You or your support managers take care of customer inquiries. Bot sends the notification to all your managers, asking them to contact that visitor.

This is the message sent to your support staff:

Step 3. Manager picks up the message

One of your support staff comes online, they reply to the bot with a special text ("CONFIRM-CONVO #"). Bot assigns that contact to the manager.
