This live webinar took place at 2pm BST / 9am EST on Wednesday 10th June 2020
Customers want to talk. To feel valued. To have their questions answered. And, when they land on a website, they want instant attention, whether that be with entertainment or with information. Conversational marketing allows organisations to show customers, partners and prospects that they care, and that they provide information as and when it is needed.
Whether it is responding to questions via a chatbot or proactively sending personalised, targeted messaging over email, the conversation must be genuine. It is not just providing answers to unanswered questions, but actively engaging in conversation. By reviewing and adjusting strategies, conversations can be started, and brand loyalty protected.
LEWIS Executive Creative and Digital Director, Simon Billington, LEWIS Head of Innovation, Andy Martinus, Senior Director of Partnership at Drift, Jared Fuller, and LEWIS Client Engagement Director, Celia Clark, will discuss the importance of creating authentic online experiences through conversational marketing.
