How can I use EasyChatbot on WhatsApp?

First you need to have a Whatsapp compatible virtual phone number for bots (WABA). You can request these numbers directly from EasyChatbot.

If you want to serve your customers (Inbound) you only need to create your Decision Tree to define the conversation you want.

If you are the one who wants to initiate the contact (Outbound), the 'first message' to be sent must be approved by Whatsapp itself. For this you can choose between one of the standard 'first messages' (which were already approved) or you can request a new custom 'first message', which is a process that usually takes 48 hours.

All other messages are free format, so you do not need prior approval.

It is important to know that for Outbound conversations (those initiated by companies), Whatsapp has a strict anti-spam policy (against junk-messages), so that if any customer reports non-compliance with these policies, Whatsapp will send a warning about a possible blocking of the virtual phone.

  2. Copy Embed Code: Copy the embed code generated by EasyChatbot. There are 2 types of embed codes:
    • click2chat: It is an icon that will appear on your website, which when clicked displays a small chat window.
    • landChat: It is a chat window that is embedded in your website, with the size you decide. They are very useful for Landing Pages.

EasyChatbot does not create Cookies on your web page, so there is no need to display special warning messages about the use of Cookies. However, if your chatbot asks the user for personal data, you must handle it responsibly as required by applicable laws and regulations.

What is a decision tree?

The EasyChatbot decision tree, also called conversation tree, is a simple graphical tool made up of boxes that you can create yourself and link with your mouse.

It defines the flow of conversations your chatbot will have.

It has the shape of an inverted tree, because according to the user's answers, the conversation branches, as if it were a multi-adventure book.

A decision tree starts with a question or a problem that the user is interested in solving. From that question or problem, secondary questions are asked that lead to several options or possible outcomes. Each option or outcome is represented as a "branch" of the tree, and each question is represented as a "node" of the tree.

A decision tree is a useful tool to visualize and evaluate in a clear and organized way all the possible conversations contemplated in your EasyChatbot.

How do I create my own decision tree?

Designing a Decision Tree is a lot like playing 'Who's Who', and you'll see.

Before designing your own tree you should consider the following:

-Closed questions: your EasyChatbot should ask closed questions, i.e. questions that do not allow rambling and that can be answered with one or a few words. Ex: Do you wear glasses, do you wear a hat, what is your favorite color, is your name Maria?  

-Initiative: Your EasyChatbot should ask questions to the user, taking the initiative of the conversation. These questions serve as a guide to find out what the user is looking for. If the user feels the need to ask, the tree is not well designed.

-Limit answers: Questions whose possible answers are limited to less than 4 options are preferable.

Ex1: yes/no

Ex2: good/bad/regular

Tree preparation:

In the game 'Who's Who' you have a large number of characters (information) that are defined by characteristics shared by some (glasses, hat, blond/brunette/bald, etc). The best players are the ones who manage to group the information, according to their characteristics, in the best possible way to be able to ask the most effective questions first, which are the ones that lead you to the desired character (to the desired information) in the least possible number of questions.

That is why the preparation has the following steps:

1.- Information: you have to elaborate a list with the types of information and/or actions that may interest your users. It is equivalent to having a list of characters in the game.

2.- Characteristics: You have to find out what characteristics or common elements these information and actions have. These characteristics allow grouping the list of the previous point.

3.- Order groups: The groups (nodes) and subgroups (branches) are ordered in the form of a tree of several levels, so that each group has no more than 4 subgroups (branches) and the desired information is reached in the least possible number of levels.

4.- Extract the questions and answers: For each group/node of the tree you have to create a question based on the characteristic that differentiates each subgroup/branch. Ex: If a group was subdivided according to whether it wears a hat or not, resulting in a branch 'with hat' and another 'without hat', then the correct question to extract is 'Does it wear a hat?' and its possible answers will be 2 subgroups/branches: yes and no.

5.- Digitize your tree: Use the graphical tree editor of EasyChatbot to create your tree based on the questions and answers obtained in the previous point. You have a simulator to test the result.

6.- Production: Publish your EasyChatbot in one of the available channels (phone, embedded code, Whatsapp, etc) so that your users can talk to it.

7.- Learning: Extract the list of answers given by your users to see if there are any that are not yet included in your current tree. Include those answers in your tree to improve the performance of your EasyChatbot.
