Post 37 - Why small business owners should consider implementing a custom AI chatbot

This post is via an AI platform called Wand, slightly different tone, my prompt was as follows:

You are a marketing expert, who understands good SEO practices. I'd like a blog post highlighting the advantages of implementing a custom AI Chatbot for small business owners. Please use British English in a conversational tone

This wasn't using my custom prompt from OpenAi but it does have some custom instructions from me by default.

One pattern I am starting to notice, all these conversational AI Chatbots like starting with very similar intro paragraphs, it's a bit of a giveaway I think. I’m going to try and educate my custom GPT to not do this in the future!

Anyway, once again I think the content provides some useful insights. If you’d like to have a chat about implementing your own AI Chatbot please feel free to get in touch and we can discuss further.

In the bustling digital marketplace, small business owners are always on the lookout for tools that can give them an edge. One such tool that's been making waves is the custom AI chatbot. It's like having a tireless member of staff who's always ready to engage with customers, answer queries, and even close sales – all without needing a break!

Always on duty

Imagine having a customer service representative who works 24/7, doesn't ask for holidays, and never gets tired. That's your AI chatbot. It can handle inquiries at any time of the day or night, ensuring that your customers feel heard and valued, even when you're catching some well-deserved z's.

Personalised interactions

Custom AI chatbots are clever little things. They can learn from interactions and provide personalised responses, making your customers feel like they're chatting with someone who really knows their stuff. This personal touch can be a game-changer in building customer loyalty.

Cost-effective

Hiring staff can be expensive, especially for a small business. Chatbots, on the other hand, can be a one-time investment that keeps on giving. They can manage multiple conversations at once, which means you won't need to hire a big team to keep up with customer queries.

Insights and analytics

These bots are not just about chatting. They're also a goldmine of data. By analysing conversations, they can provide insights into customer behaviour and preferences. This information can be invaluable when you're planning your next big move.

Streamlined operations

From booking appointments to processing orders, AI chatbots can handle a variety of tasks that would otherwise eat into your time. By automating these processes, you can focus on the bigger picture and grow your business.

So, there you have it. A custom AI chatbot could be the trusty sidekick you didn't know you needed. It's an investment that can improve customer satisfaction, save you money, and provide valuable insights. For small business owners looking to make a big impact, it's definitely worth a look.
