How do I automate my conversations?

Conversive can help automate your messages using a robust library of pre-built automation templates that make it easy to set up automated messaging for various scenarios. Here's a quick overview of everyday use cases:

1. Nurture: Use this automation to build and maintain customer engagement over time. This can guide leads through a customer journey with targeted, timely messages.

2. Notification: Automate notifications to inform customers about updates or alerts, such as new product releases or account changes.

3. Reminder: Set up reminders to help customers keep track of appointments, renewals, or deadlines, reducing no-shows and improving engagement.

4. Keyword Responder: This automation detects specific keywords in customer messages and triggers an appropriate response, allowing quick replies for FAQs or follow-up messages based on customer intent.

5. Conversational flows: Create bot-like conversations with conditional (if-then) flows. This automation guides users through various pathways depending on their responses. For instance, customers who select "Product Inquiry" receive product details; if they choose "Support," they're routed to a help desk.

6. AI-Powered Chatbots: Conversive's AI-driven bots are used to respond intelligently to real-time customer messages. These chatbots learn the data set you provide and from interactions to deliver personalized answers, enhancing customer experience without human intervention.

Here are some practical use cases that show how Conversive's automation capabilities can streamline customer interactions across different scenarios:

1. Lead Nurturing and Engagement
   Automatically send follow-up messages to new leads who sign up on your website. After a customer subscribes, Conversive can send a welcome message and a sequence of nurturing messages highlighting your services or products. This keeps leads engaged, moving them smoothly through the sales funnel without manual intervention.

2. Appointment Reminders
   Reduce missed appointments by setting up automated reminders. For instance, Conversive can send reminders 24 hours and 2 hours before a scheduled appointment. This ensures customers remember their commitments, resulting in higher attendance and a smoother workflow.

3. Order Status Notifications
   Enhance customer satisfaction by keeping them informed of their order status. Conversive can automatically send notifications at each stage—when an order is confirmed, shipped, out for delivery, or delivered. This improves transparency and builds trust by keeping customers updated throughout the process.

4. Customer Support Keyword Responses
   Use keyword responder automations to provide quick answers to common questions. For example, if a customer texts "Offer50," an automated response with your promo code is sent instantly. This shortens response times for frequently asked questions, freeing up agents to handle more complex cases.

5. Event Invitations and Reminders
   For virtual or in-person events, automate the invite and reminder process. Send a save-the-date message, followed by an RSVP request, and schedule reminders as the event date approaches. This automation helps boost attendance and makes event management more effortless.

6. Re-Engagement Campaigns
   Reconnect with inactive customers using nurture automations. For example, send a message like "We miss you!" followed by special offers or product updates to spark interest and re-establish engagement with dormant customers.

7. If-Then Flows for Guided Conversations
   Create conditional if-then flows to simulate bot-like conversations. This allows you to guide customers based on their responses. For example, if a customer selects "Product Inquiry," they're sent details on your products, but if they choose "Support," they're directed to a help agent or support resources.

8. AI-powered chatbots for Real-Time Engagement
   Conversive's AI chatbots can be used to provide real-time responses that are adapted based on customer inputs. These chatbots learn from interactions, enabling personalized and intelligent responses that help customers get information quickly and efficiently without needing human support.
