8. Messaging will play an
increasingly large role in the way
that consumers interact with
companies.
Bots can help automate a wide
range of customer-facing
conversations for businesses,
improving efficiency and
maximizing user satisfaction.
Why Bots?
9. In all cases, Bots should:
● Be easy to create and use, without prior bot knowledge
● Solve real problems, and make it easy to measure
success
● Offer first-class integrations across sales, marketing,
service systems
● Support complexity, when desired
Guiding Principles to
Bots
10. ● Lack of technical resources (if building a bot “from scratch”)
● Difficulty connecting bots with relevant data and services, even when using
easier builders (like Motion AI or Chatfuel - which gives you the “pipes” but
lacks easy integration setup with various systems)
● Intimidated by new, sci-fi nature of bots (one quote: “the value prop is
incredible but it feels like rocket science”).
● Customer’s unsure of what makes a “good bot”
● Nascent market without a clear winner, dominated by startups - what bot
service is right for me?
