Improve CX with Conversational Commerce

Improve CX with Conversational Commerce

Every transaction starts with a conversation—and today, those conversations take place through technology. With the right platform and strategy, you can turn one-and-done interactions into ongoing conversations that span the customer journey and improve the customer experience across channels.

 

Keep the conversation going, and keep customers coming back

The days of doing most business in person are long gone, but conversations are still at the heart of every interaction. It’s the way consumers and businesses converse that has changed and if you’re not keeping up with your customers’ expectations, it’s time to re-think your approach. Conversational commerce brings together the best of technology, human insight, and automation to meet customers where they are and make it as easy as possible for them to get what they need—and in some cases, to show them what that might be.

 

Done right, conversational commerce allows you to create meaningful connections and an ongoing journey that will bring customers back to your brand again and again, in just the right ways and moments. Get faster time to value with [24]7.ai Engagement Cloud™ as your conversational commerce foundation and incrementally increase that value over time with our complete suite of solutions and proven CX expertise.

Start the conversation

Invite consumers into a conversation by delivering dynamically personalized ads across channels, at scale. With intent-based ad targeting, you can combine first, second, and third-party data to anticipate what customers are trying to do and meet their needs precisely—even down to knowing the weather in their zip code. [24]7 Target™ optimizes creative content on the fly and can take consumers directly into a live or asynchronous chatbot conversation. 

 

Answer questions

Deliver instant value with a superior FAQ chatbot that turns simple question-and-answer exchanges into dynamic two-way conversations. [24]7 Answers™ uses advanced algorithms to organize your knowledge base better, bring your help center and search functions to life, and manage up to 80% of common inquiries. If a customer needs further assistance, Answers can pass the conversational context along to a transactional bot or escalate to a human agent for a smooth, seamless transfer.

 

Do more than chat

Handle more complex transactions including processing payments, completing orders, and making account changes with an intelligent chatbot that understands natural language and accurately predicts intent. [24]7 Conversations™ gives customers a consistent experience across voice, digital, and messaging channels. It can support natural conversations that feel human, even understanding and responding to accents and colloquial speech. Plus, you can create, view, and modify bots easily using a single, user-friendly interface.

 

Provide live assistance

For inquiries requiring a human touch, [24]7.ai Engagement Cloud can seamlessly escalate to a live digital or voice agent who sees the history and can pick up the conversation immediately. AIVA prompts agents with smart responses and next-steps via [24]7 Digital Assist™. Agents can use [24]7 Active Share™ to further accelerate resolution by pushing rich visual content to the customer’s screen to simplify time-consuming tasks.

 

Add more value

Using the information you’ve gathered throughout the conversation, you can now target and retarget customers with trending intents while they’re still engaged. For example, offer add-on services with an appointment reservation, complementary products with a purchase, or tell them about an upcoming event or release that might be of interest. The goal is to keep the conversation going, turning siloed interactions into ongoing journeys.
