yellow.ai (formerly Yellow Messenger) is a customer experience automation platform enabling enterprises to leverage its NLP engine to build chat and voice bots.
Combining AI and human intelligence to automate customer and employee experience, the company aims to democratize AI through its no-code/low-code bot builders, omnichannel virtual assistants, and ticketing automation suite.
ManyChat is extremely easy to set up on your Facebook business page and Instagram account. Even if you just want to try it out, the free plan is great to get started. If you want to provide a freebie or 24/7 customer support, you can get it done with ManyChat.
We are very happy how yellow.ai helped us through our customer journey. All the use cases are well met and fully automated. Our customers also found it very easier to get into the basic FAQs before getting into direct customer care agents. Needed a few more advancements in integrating catalog with chat so users can shop directly from WhatsApp or chat messages than going to our app/website. Overall I recommend it very much.
ManyChat has a Facebook comment feature that when your audience comments on a particular post on your Facebook page then send them the information you have promised them. Once set up, is all on autopilot.
We have the ManyChat plugin on our website to act as a customer service chat feature for those looking for help and engage with us.
Have some great integrations on the pro account with payment gateways such as Stripe that allows you to charge your clients and receive money.
ManyChat is a great tool, provides loads of features, integrations and just saves you a whole load of time once all set up. If you aren't tech-savvy or used to how digital marketing tools work, it can appear complicated. That's how I felt initially 2 years ago, and after watching tutorials online I had a better understanding of it. This is why I rated it a 7, as it's not a tool that you can just play around with and guess how it works. There's definitely a learning curve with it so I recommend doing the free training and watching video tutorials.
There is room for improvement but frankly, we haven't had the need to request for support. Everything is pretty easy to setup and there are very useful video explanation guides and walkthroughs on ManyChat's YouTube channel. The only challenge we have had was to integrate it with Zapier, it's a bit tricky because you need to do a setup workaround first, but nothing too complicated.
For the initial purpose of getting ManyChat, none of the alternatives worked either. We ended up creating a mobile app to meet the need. For incoming support automation, using the native features within Facebook has been effective as well as using GoHighLevel and Continual.ly. ManyChat was considerably more effective, but with the price increase and the non-necessity of carrying another subscription for incoming message support, it wasn't a logical choice to keep the service.
We have a very positive ROI for our business. We have been generating about 10 leads a month. We are currently closing on 10% of those, so 1 new client a month. We are working on ways to improve that conversion percentage.
We generate around 50 leads a month for a client of ours. Their conversion is about 25% Their average ticket is 1,500.00 which puts them to about 15-20 thousand a month.
