How to Build a Seamless
Customer Experience
© 2017 24/7 CUSTOMER, INC. 17
A chatbot is a service, powered by rules and
artificial intelligence, that people interact with
that could live on a website, a mobile app, or a
messaging platform.”
Informational
Ask a question, get an answer
Personal &
Conversational
Emulates a human conversation
Transactional
Guides the user through a series
of steps to complete a task
© 2017 24/7 CUSTOMER, INC. 18
While chatbots can reduce labor costs and streamline many
customer interactions, they can’t handle all customer journeys or
solve every problem your customers have. The future of customer
service is not a question of human versus machine - it will require
the right mix of human and machine.”
