Chatbot assistants can offer a personalized shopping experience to the prospects visiting your online or social media stores.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the best <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">real life applications<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of chatbots for making sales was seen when LEGO assigned their AI-powered chatbot Ralph to help their online customers pick out the perfect gifts for the holiday season.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The result?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">LEGO enjoyed a 71% reduction in their cost per purchase while also enjoying a 1.9X higher average order value.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While LEGO-based their personalized experience on a set of answers that their chatbot would ask the visitors, you can also use your chatbot to deliver personalized product recommendations based on the browsing behavior of a prospect on your website.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moreover, chatbots can be also programmed to keep a track of your inventory and inform your prospects if a product is unavailable. To take this a step further, chatbots can also be programmed to suggest alternatives from your store or inform the user when the product will be in stock again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If, however, you are selling a product that is a little less well-known and a little more complex than LEGO products, don\u2019t get disheartened. While the exact same strategy may not work for all brands, chatbots can still do a lot to contribute to your sales process.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Read on to the next point to find out how.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Engaging_Customer_Service_for_Customers_And_Prospects\"><\/span><b>Engaging Customer Service for Customers And Prospects:<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are selling a more complex product, like a SaaS tool, the strategy that worked for LEGO is not relevant for you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, this doesn\u2019t mean you cannot take advantage of chatbots to improve the sales experience of your prospects.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just like chatbots can be used to deliver personalized product recommendations, they can also be used to have personalized \u2018conversations\u2019 with your prospects.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let us understand this with an example of an <a href=\"https:\/\/loganix.com\/domain-authority-checker-tool\/\">SEO tool website<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s say an interested visitor lands on the website and is checking out the features offered by the tool. At this time, the chatbot window pops up with a message like, \u201cI see you are checking out the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rankwatch.com\/backlinks\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">free backlink checker<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of our tool. Did you know this feature lets you spy on your competitor\u2019s backlink profiles? Want me to show you how?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From here, the conversation can be used to nurture the prospect\u2019s interest in the product and can eventually be directed to collecting an email or simply connecting the prospect with a sales representative that can close them as a <a href=\"https:\/\/botsify.com\">customer service<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best part is that you can chart out the responses of your bot in a way that it can cater to both, the prospects that want to learn more about your product before speaking to a sales rep, and the prospects that are visiting your website searching for a way to speak to a sales rep.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sending_Confirmations_And_Upsell_Offers\"><\/span><b>Sending Confirmations And Upsell Offers:<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before we look at how chatbots can send order confirmations and upselling offers, let\u2019s look at how the same is being done right now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Right now, once a customer places an order, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smartrmail.com\/blog\/well-crafted-order-confirmation-emails\/\">order confirmation<\/a> email is sent directly to their email address. To check the confirmation email, the customer is expected to exit your website, log into their email inbox, and view the confirmation there.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now let\u2019s say it\u2019s two days later and the customer wants to track their order. They will have to log into their inbox, find the confirmation email, and then click on the order tracking link. The link will then take them back to your website where they will find the tracking information.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, imagine if all that back and forth between your customer\u2019s email inbox and your website could be avoided.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">European online fashion brand Zalando does exactly that with the help of the Facebook messenger bot. As soon as one places an order, the chatbot sends the order confirmation in the form of a Facebook message.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sending_Reminders_And_Notifications\"><\/span><b>Sending Reminders And Notifications:<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sending reminders is the lifeblood of many sales processes. After all, the money lies in the following ups, right?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, you may have already set up an automated mechanism to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.openphone.com\/blog\/customer-follow-up-system\/\"><span data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;follow up with customers&quot;}\" data-sheets-userformat=\"{&quot;2&quot;:7107,&quot;3&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:0},&quot;4&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:16777215},&quot;9&quot;:1,&quot;10&quot;:1,&quot;11&quot;:4,&quot;12&quot;:0,&quot;14&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:0},&quot;15&quot;:&quot;Arial&quot;}\">follow up with customers<\/span><\/a>, send notifications to existing customers, and send reminders to your customers about renewals or re-purchases.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, how many times has it happened that a subscription service that you subscribe to sends you an email about renewal and you miss it?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For many businesses, their customers are not constantly hooked to their email inboxes. In fact, there is a good chance that a significant percentage of most B2C prospects go days and weeks without ever checking their email inboxes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, the same is not true for social media, where you can use chatbots to send automated reminders, notifications, and follow-ups to your prospects and customers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Market_Research\"><\/span><b>Market Research:<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Market research surveys are another thing that is usually conducted using forms and emails. As a result, many of the responses get lost because of low email open rates and even lower click-through rates of people that actually open the form.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then, you can lose an additional set of respondents who turn away after looking at the size of your form and the complexity of the answers involved.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, with a chatbot, you can improve the results of your efforts in multiple ways:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The chatbot will only survey people who visit your business&#8217;s social media profiles and website. This means you will only survey people that directly fall into your target audience.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The chatbot will turn the survey into an interaction. This way, at least a few of the respondents will not turn away if you have a long questionnaire prepared.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even in the cases where a respondent does not stick around to answer all the questions, you will have answers to at least a few of your questions.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The chatbot will help reduce the number of steps a person needs to take in order to open and complete the survey. There is no dependence on email open rates or click-through rates.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Employee_Learning\"><\/span><b>Employee Learning:<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you take your employee training initiatives seriously, you already know that not all employees learn in the same manner. Moreover, it is critical to ensure your employees are consistently exposed to learning opportunities that are tailored to suit their career trajectory. The best way to do this is to invest in different trainins and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qooper.io\/blog\/why-mentoring-programs-belong-in-your-organization\">mentoring programs<\/a> that will equip employees with the necessary skills and knowledge to excel in their roles and advance their careers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While personalizing employee training in this manner can be incredibly beneficial, implementing this kind of personalization is a lot of work. The work turns into an administrative nightmare when you have a large pool of hundreds of employees that you want to train.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An AI-based chatbot can make the learning experience more engaging and more personalized. Chatbots can even be used as a tool to reinforce training.
