The Future of Conversational Channels
3 steps to increased conversions
1. Trust
Your customers need to trust that they can ask questions on any channel
and immediately get back the correct results. This builds trust in the
channel.
2. Personalisation
Each engagement allows you to learn a little more about your customer and
then deliver ever more tailored responses. Over time you will automatically
communicate with each customer uniquely. This increases trust and
relevance.
3. Activation
Once you have an engaged customer, communicating with your brand
through a trusted, personalised, channel they are more likely to positively
respond to outbound offers and and conversion rates will increase.

Mindscape
Case Study
18@charlescadbury
The questions that led to Mindscape being created - from use case to concept
● How could technology be used to help?
● Specifically, could voice step in to offer front line support when human interaction
is either impossible or unwanted?
● How can we help people feel heard in their loneliest moments?
● What therapeutic benefits could be delivered by technology in the absence of
medical practitioners?

Channel Opportunities
Crafting conversations that lead to an action
1. Experience
Asynchronous nature of chatbots allow tasks to be completed at the
cadence of the customer
2. Engagement
A more personal channel increases engagement and chances of customer
completing their task
3. Data
The ability to monitor exact phrases delivers an opportunity to feed that
insight directly back into product and service mix
4. Channels
If your customers are embracing new channels, you have to find a way to
communicate effectively there
