Marketing your Business with Facebook Messenger (Chatbots) - 10/25/18

Facebook Messenger bots (also called chatbots) are a relatively new form of technology that takes the basic autoresponder idea and puts it on steroids. With traditional email marketing, you send an email to your list and wait (or hope!) for them to open it to find out about your deals. Even if you write the most creative, interest-grabbing subject lines, many times your emails are competing with hundreds of other marketers and shopping ads, or they’re going straight to the spam folder.

With a messenger bot, marketers can get their message to their clients’ or prospects’ eyes immediately since the notification pops up on their phones or computers.

Why are Facebook Messenger bots worth investigating? Two main reasons come to mind: automating some of your communications is freeing; and Facebook Messenger has 1.3 billion monthly active users worldwide. When used correctly and with a strong marketing plan, chatbots can be used to create strong relationships with your clients and attract new prospects to your business.
