Bots have been garnering a lot of attention recently. The majority of coverage has been positive but it has also garnered negative attention as it relates to Russian bots and their involvement with the 2016 election. Regardless of sentiment, bots are simply a software application that can perform tasks and computations much faster than a human. Bots have been around for quite some time and there are thousands of Bot applications in use today. Many of which provide useful services for consumers and help drive positive customer experiences for brands every day. Brands use Bots for a variety of reasons, some of those include but are not limited to:
+ Engaging An Audience
+ Collecting Feedback and User Insights
+ Facilitating the Sale of Goods and Services
+ Integrating Customer Service Across Digital Touchpoints
+ Personalizing Experiences

Businesses exist to satisfy customers. Without ensuring customer satisfaction, achieving long-term corporate objective would be a mirage. So, the customer is the oxygen that keeps any organization going. But some companies carry on as if the customer is not critical to their existence; they operate as though it is the customers that depend on them and not vice versa. A number of companies, especially those regarded as market leaders, run on the wrong premise that they can do without the customer but that is a fallacy that soon hits them where it hurts the most when the tide changes.

Marketers are too obsessed with their Net Promoter Score. They’re not seeking feedback for improvement, they’re trying to hit a KPI.
But unsolicited feedback is where the good stuff happens.
One of my most successful strategies used old Facebook comments from customers enquiring about a discontinued product. The client had previously dismissed them with a generic apology.

Social media channels such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram have had a dramatic impact on the current business environment. Brands no longer have the luxury of controlling what they want potential customers to see or read about them as social media has empowered consumers to generate content which could affect the public perception of a brand, it has also given these consumers access to a global audience. This has facilitated a power shift from businesses to the consumer.
Social media has amplified the voice of the customers who can now share their pleasure or displeasure with millions of people all over the world. Although the power tilt is mostly in the favour of the customers, businesses can still capitalize on social media to improve their brand image & trustworthiness, engage with customers, support them and access valuable feedback. In this post, I will share 5 ways businesses can ensure their brands always project a positive image on social media.

Whether you’re using a chatbot, NPS or another means of collecting customer feedback, you will need a reliable solution to be able to analyze the data you collect to be able to decipher insights in the right context. Verbatim, or free-text responses can be notoriously hard to analyze, which is why Natural Language Processing (NLP) methods are used to ensure correct analyzation. At Thematic we use NLP and (Machine Learning) ML in addition to our own AI which we’ve developed to analyze verbatim feedback responses.
Many companies collect vast amounts of customer data but simply don’t know what to do with it or how best to derive meaningful insights from it. Is this your company? The key word being meaningful, as insights can be plenty but unless you can put them in to the right context it will be meaningless for your business.
