Instructions for Building a Video Chatbot for Your Facebook Page

STEP 1: We will start by determining the qualifying questions

For your video chatbot to answer the queries of the customers, you need to collect enough data from the users.

For example, we have collected the following information so that the chatbot can provide an estimate for your services.

  • Number of Bedrooms
  • Number of Bathrooms
  • Contact Number
  • Email Address
  • Name of Locality

STEP 2: Create a Video Flow of your chatbot

This is a necessary step before you organize your chatbot. You can visually map out all the necessary logistics and sequencing of the conversation you are planning to offer your customers.

STEP 3: Prepare a Script for your Video Chatbot

This step will make sure that your customers are getting their queries cleared and answered. It is necessary that you add a clean call-to-action objective to every video clip you make.

It should be made in a way that the clip will only move forward when the user will provide an input. It is a bit tricky but you will eventually get there.

STEP 4: Building Video Chatbot's Flow using Chatfuel

User experience is what that matters. Your customers will only entertain your video chatbot messages if they find it interesting. This objective of this step is to make sure that the script you made is compatible with

Chatfuel's user flow.

It will be difficult for you to record the whole script in advance and later realize it that it does not make any logistical sense.
