Setting Up the Chat Flow
Now, let’s head over to the left sidebar of menus in your WordPress installation. You should be able to find the HubSpot menu next to the Comments section. In a previous video, we covered how to install and set up HubSpot into your WordPress website for free. If you haven’t done that yet, I highly recommend you check out the tutorial and get it set up.
Creating the Chat Flow
Once your HubSpot plugin is installed, click on HubSpot in the sidebar. Here, you’ll find the option to create a chat flow. Click on it, and you’ll be directed to the HubSpot website. You’ll then get to choose between Facebook Messenger or a website chat. Select the one that best fits your requirements.
Setting Up the Chat Widget
First off, you can customize the chat bot colors to match your site layout and design. Then, you’ll have the option to set a welcome message, automatically assign conversations, and manage the chat availability based on your working hours. After everything is set, you can preview how the chat widget looks on different devices and then publish it to make it live on your website.
Utilizing the Live Chat
Now, if you visit your website, you’ll notice a chat option at the bottom right corner of the screen powered by HubSpot. Users can type their messages, and support members will receive their inquiries. If a user doesn’t have time to wait for a response, they can leave their email to be contacted later. It’s really that simple, easy, and effective!
