See Einstein Reply Recommendations in Action
Sita is ready to see Einstein Reply Recommendations in action. Let’s follow Sita and Maria’s journey using Einstein Reply Recommendations for the first time as they shadow product support specialist Ada Belewa, who spends her day helping customers.
Ada receives a new chat from a customer about an installation date mixup. As soon as the first message arrives, several reply recommendations appear in the Einstein Replies component. The first reply is just what she needs, so she clicks Post to send it as a chat response.
The customer responds with a follow-up question, and the recommended replies automatically refresh. Ada clicks Edit on the second reply to add an extra detail about their installation policy, then sends the chat.
Ada has quickly resolved the customer’s issue. The customer thanks her, and new recommended replies appear. Ada clicks Post on the top reply to send it in the chat. Because Maria added the contact name into the reply using a merge field when she was publishing it to quick text, the customer sees their name in the farewell chat. Ada ends the chat and the customer leaves happy.
Customize Your Replies
Einstein Reply Recommendations turns previous replies into templates for your agents to use. You can customize these templates from the Quick Text tab at any time. For instance, let’s say you wanted to incorporate a more friendly tone and increase customer engagement. You can change a simple “Hello” into a “Good morning, how may I help you?”
Improve Reply Recommendations
While it’s a smart tool, Einstein’s AI power can only go so far without your help. Einstein recommends replies from your previous chats, and it’s especially loyal to your quick text record. If a customer’s message is too unique, Einstein can be at a loss for words.
Luckily, there are things you can do to help Einstein guide your agents in the right direction.
Improve Einstein Reply Recommendations by reviewing your quick text often. You can create new replies in quick text and include them in Einstein’s recommendations by selecting Include in reply recommendations on the record. If your agents find better ways to phrase a specific reply, you can always designate agents to keep your replies current and consistent with your company’s voice and tone by editing published replies in quick text.
Also, your agents’ actions in real time help Einstein learn which replies to recommend. When a reply recommendation isn’t right for the situation, click Not Helpful underneath the reply. Einstein gathers this feedback for future suggestions.
