EVENT DETAILS |
As Natural Language Understanding frameworks improve, bots are getting better at detecting & responding to user intent, expanding the use cases in which conversational automation can be applied. We are now at a point where AI-driven bots can handle scenarios across the entire customer journey, from awareness to commerce to care.
These new conversational experiences are wrapped in ML-powered, targeted display campaigns, focused on driving people into Bot channels to support everything from marketing to sales to support. In this talk, we'll host Shane Mac from Conversocial & Ryan Maynard from Chatdynamo to explore how advancements in NLU & ML are making apps & websites irrelevant, & driving brands to invest in messaging.
To mention just a few success stories:
A billion dollar jewelry brand achieved 13x ROAS (return on ad spend)
A global sneaker brand's chatbot saw 87% message open rates (4.8x higher than their current email engagement)
