Conversations in Multi-Location

What is Conversations in Multi-Location?

For businesses utilizing Conversations AI Pro to manage communication across multiple locations, the Multi-Location Conversations feature offers a streamlined solution. Multi-Location Conversations aggregates all conversations from various accounts into a single Conversations. This enables teams to efficiently handle customer communication via Google Business Messages, Facebook, Instagram (Coming soon), SMS, and Web Chat conversations, all within one centralized platform.

Key Features

Easy Setup: Users can opt-in to Multi-Location Conversations by clicking the "Start Using Multi-Location Conversations" button. This action pulls past and future conversations from all accounts within the group into a single, easy-to-access Conversations.

Cross-Channel Messaging: Multi-Location Conversations supports communication across all available channels, including Web Chat (Pro), Email, Lead Capture Forms, SMS (Pro), Google Business Messages, Facebook, and Instagram (coming May 2024).

Closing and Opening Conversations: Conversations can be seamlessly "closed" within Multi-Location Conversations, reflecting the status across single-location accounts as well.

Mobile-Friendly: The Multi-Location Conversations is designed to be mobile-friendly, allowing users to stay connected and respond to messages on the go.

Please Note: For teams managing communications across multiple locations, we recommend bookmarking the Multi-Location Conversations and keeping it open throughout the day to ensure prompt responses to incoming messages.

Setting up AI-Assisted Web Chat for Franchise Websites

For franchises with multiple locations, each with its team managing leads, installing a unique web chat widget on each location's website ensures separate lead and contact databases for each location. Alternatively, franchises with a centralized team can designate a single-location account as the "HQ" and install the Conversations web chat widget from that account to manage leads centrally.
