Facebook Chatbot Campaigns
Now that you have started collecting subscribers with a widget, you can send messages to your entire audience, or specific segments. Send messages to notify subscribers about updates to their account, event registration, or their purchase status, via Facebook Messenger.
Choose your project. Navigate to the Broadcasting section and click Create a campaign.
How to Segment Recipients
Narrow your audience and only send personalized messages. Click Segment recipients and choose a segment.
You can choose a segment based on sign up date or different criterias. There are:
- assigned variables;
- assigned tags;
- was in flow (received or did not receive the chosen flow);
- was in campaign (received or did not receive the chosen campaign).
Combine several criteria with the operators any or all.
Hint: For example only choose users, who visited specific pages of your site and were looking for a tent
How to Use Campaign Builder Message Elements
Enter a Message
You can write a text message with up to 512 characters and add emoji and variables, gathered by your widget and flows.
To add a variable click {} and choose a variable from the drop-down menu. Each recipient will get a message with unique personalized content. For example, you can contact each Facebook subscriber and address them by name using the variable.
Add a Button – Make it Engaging
You can add up to 3 buttons that will redirect users to your external site, launch a chatbot flow with your scenario, or call a phone number you enter.
Hint: It’s a good practice to add the phone number of a sales manager to close the deal and get additional information – so the user only needs to tap the button to make the call.
Add Additional Media
Attach external resources to add more useful information. Click Add and choose what you want to add:
- an additional block of text;
- a file in any formats excluding executing files, size up to 5 MB;
- a card with a title (up to 40 characters and emoji), a description (up to 80 characters and emoji), and a button (up to 20 characters and link to your site, launching flow or making a call);
- an image – make sure it fits the size of device screens used by your subscribers.
Hint: For a better display in Messenger choose an image resolution of 500 px in width and 200 px in height. It looks both good for desktop and mobile apps.
Add Quick Replies
Create premade user requests to help them get information and launch a flow. Quick replies are buttons within your Facebook chatbot without links. Use them to engage with subscribers or segment them depending on their button choice. These buttons are dynamic and convenient to use, subscribers can easily select them
To add buttons click Quick replies and enter text up to 20 characters and choose a flow. You can add up to 10 quick replies.
Preview Your Message
Before you send a campaign you can preview on the right side and get an idea how it will be displayed on the user’s device. To test sending it to your messenger, click Test campaign.
If you checked everything, click Next.
