Automating Business Interactions with Whatsapp Chatbots

Sanam Malhotra | 12th November 2019

With over 1.5 billion users, WhatsApp is emerging as a substantial marketing platform for medium and large businesses. The introduction of artificial intelligence is empowering businesses with WhatsApp chatbots, predictive engines, and recommendation systems for more reliable customer services. Today, industrial leaders are proactively investing in bot development services to enhance customer experience on Whatsapp while reducing operational costs.

Let’s explore how global businesses can deploy WhatsApp Chatbots to improve their customer services and operations-

eCommerce and Retail Businesses

Social media is the millennial’s window to discuss products, look out for recommendations, and propagate their favorite brands. However, while website chatbots are effective at assisting desktop visitors, they often fail to perform well on mobile screens.

WhatsApp chatbots powered by artificial intelligence services address customer queries in a quick, user-friendly, and streamlined manner. eCommerce businesses can boost their customer loyalty and conversion metrics with the following WhatsApp chatbot applications-

a) Product Notifications- eCommerce businesses can use WhatsApp chatbots to send automated push notifications that communicate new product arrival, offers, coupons, unused vouchers, etc.

b) Personalized Experience- Personalized product recommendations and customized services leave a lasting impact on the customers. Retail businesses can initiate automated customer interactions on special occasions like anniversaries or make seasonal suggestions based on their demographic conditions.
