How to Access Facebook Messenger For More Customers Engagement

There are many ways to access Facebook Messenger. The first way is via mobile app. This requires that your customer have the Facebook application installed on their phone or tablet, which is likely if they are a Facebook user. They need to have Messenger enabled in their settings and then they can just open the app and access it from there. One of the most popular ways to access Facebook messenger is on a web browser. You can use this method if you want to offer some sort of interactive service that doesn’t require users to download an app and create an account. For example, you might want to ask customers to sign up for a contest or announce exclusive news with this option. A third way is by texting the word ‘facebook’ or ‘fbook’ to 32665 on their phone. This option was created so that people who don’t own computers or smartphones could still access the social network and get updates about what is going on. Lastly, you can send a message directly to someone else’s inbox without having them accept your friend request by using their @handle (example: @johnsmith). You simply type in that handle and then type out your message, like you would any other text-based messaging app. If they do not know who you are, they will be alerted that someone has sent them a message but won’t see your name until they accept it. This is a great way to reach out to people who may not be your “friends” if you want to privately contact them. It also works well for reaching out to groups of people at once, like customers or clients. For example, if you wanted to alert certain clients about an upcoming sale or event you could send that message directly to their inboxes without having to friend all of them individually. How Facebook Messenger Can Help Boost Sales and Be More Efficient with Customers Now that you know how to access Facebook Messenger, here are some ways it can help boost sales and be more efficient with customers: Offer exclusive contests. You can offer rewards for performing certain tasks or simply give away coupons for discounts. This will encourage users to enter because they do not want to miss out on the opportunity. It’s much more likely that they will respond than if you sent an email or sent messages through other social media accounts like Twitter or Instagram. This is especially effective if your business is located in an area where Facebook Messenger is popular Sell products and services directly via chat. Once people create accounts with your business, you can access their information and use it as needed. If they have already purchased something from you, but need assistance regarding the product, direct them to chat with a representative instead of calling or emailing (which could result in getting lost in the shuffle). This way, they get immediate service and you don’t lose money by paying employees overtime or someone else to answer these questions outside of regular business hours. Chatting with them might also help them remember that they purchased from you and make it easier for them to purchase again in the future. Sell products and services through the Facebook website. You can sell direct from your Facebook page, which is always interesting to see because you get an idea of what people are interested in. It’s also nice for customers to have a convenient place to shop without having to go anywhere else. With this function, you won’t have to set up a third-party shopping cart or create an account with another company. You can simply send them the link to buy something right from your page. It’s also easy for customers to pay, since they don’t have to leave their news feed or log into their bank accounts; they simply click on the link and follow the given instructions. Offer exclusive deals and discounts. If you want to offer special deals or exclusive access to certain events like concerts or conferences, use Messenger instead of other social media platforms like Twitter or Instagram (or email). This way, you can target specific people who fit your ideal customer profile and make it easier for users who do not want to miss out on the opportunity. The message will be much more compelling than if you broadcasted something like this across multiple platforms at once, especially when dealing with limited spaces (i.e., concert tickets). Also consider offering early bird rewards for people who purchase something before others. This will encourage them to act quickly before someone else gets there first, making it more likely that they will take action because they feel like they are missing out if they don’t act fast enough. Let customers contact you privately over chat if they need help with your products or services. People may not want other users seeing that they are asking questions about issues with your products or services, so letting them contact you via private chat is ideal in these situations where privacy is key. Start a new contest by using Messenger as a giveaway platform. In order to attract new subscribers, give away prizes here and there on a regular basis throughout the year instead of one big giveaway on Black Friday every year. This way, you will keep subscribers interested in your business all year long and make it seem more personal by interacting with them more frequently on a small scale rather than just one time a year when everything is focused on one holiday or event. Plus, it feels less desperate if you aren’t offering a huge prize every month but instead giving away smaller things that can add up over time. Ask for feedback from customers via Messenger. If you want some honest feedback from your customers without making them feel uncomfortable about directly saying what they think, let them chat with someone from your company via Messenger instead of emailing back and forth until everyone is too frustrated to continue the conversation because it isn’t going anywhere fast enough or easily enough (i.e., asking for their address). Then again, if people do not want to use Facebook Messenger for any reason then perhaps you could offer two different phone contacts so that people do not have to download the app themselves just in case they prefer speaking over the phone rather than typing out messages via text-based messaging. However, this would mean using two different numbers which could be confusing and costly depending on your needs (i.e., texting versus calling plans) so it might make more sense to simply ask someone online how many stars they would rate their experience overall based off of whatever answer choices you provide in question form…to which it would hopefully only take one star (and not five) in order for users to not feel annoyed by taking surveys (which we all know everyone hates doing) and therefore feel more inclined/willing/excited to actually answer honestly!
