Being connected to customers is important for all businesses. As more people have access to mobile phones, live chat has become as personable as texting. From problem-solving to sales, live chat has been a growing key feature to online businesses. According to INC., 44% of consumers believe live chat is an important feature for websites, and that 60% of customers in the 18-34 age range "regularly use live chat for customer service."
PhotoBiz gives you the ability to embed any live chat code you want to your website in the CSS/JS section of your website. Here are 3 different available choices, from paid services with automated response tools and a free service with robust tools.
Intercom - Paid Subscription with AI
Intercom is one of the latest and fastest-growing live chat platforms on the market. With over 30,000+ large brands using it, (pst, it's what we use!), it's a no brainer. Intercom has tons of features that help you track customers, their habits and other details. One big feature it has is chatbots where you can create automated responses to typical questions your customers may have such as, 'How much do your services cost? What time do you open?' Â
Intercom collects data and responds to customers so you can be there when you're not there. It's a paid monthly subscription that can grow with the size of your company.
Tawk.to - A Free Option with Robust Tools
Tawk.to is a free live chat platform as well, that Forbes.com says "Ranked #1 with a 98% customer satisfaction score, over 2.2 Million teams & individuals use Tawk.to to interact with 1.6 Billion visitors every month, that's 1 in every 3 people online."
It may not have automated functions or AI chatbots like Intercom, but it does have a long list of features such as detail reporting on customers, file transfer, in-chat payments, and canned shortcuts. The best thing about Tawk.to for a small team is that it's free and they have an app with notifications to help you stay connected with customers anywhere, anytime.
