Step 1: Find Smart Link Settings
Company Settings > SmartLink > SmartLink Manager
Access to the SmartLink manager can be strategically limited and controlled through customizable user permissions, ensuring that only authorized team members within your organization have the ability to create or modify your company's SmartLinks. This permission-based access system provides an additional layer of security and oversight, helping you maintain brand consistency while delegating SmartLink management responsibilities to appropriate staff members.
Scalable Solution That Grows With Your Business
As your business continues to evolve, expand, and adapt to changing market conditions, your SmartLink functionality can be easily updated and modified to scale alongside your business growth. This flexibility ensures that your SmartLink solution remains relevant and effective, accommodating new services, updated workflows, and changing business requirements without requiring a complete system overhaul or migration to a different platform.
Step 2: Customizable SmartLink URL tags for Brand recognition
By default, the URL for your SmartLink is automatically tagged with your company name, providing instant brand recognition and professional appearance when shared with customers. However, the tag can be fully customized and edited with every newly created SmartLink to better align with specific marketing campaigns, service offerings, or promotional initiatives. This customization flexibility allows you to create memorable, keyword-rich URLs that enhance your search engine visibility while maintaining brand consistency across different customer touchpoints. Additionally, personalized URL tags can help you track the performance of specific marketing channels and improve your overall digital marketing analytics.
Step 3: Creating SmartLink Title
The SmartLink title can be easily edited and customized at this stage of the setup process, as well as the default assignee for newly incoming leads, giving you complete control over how customer inquiries are routed and managed within your organization. The title functionality allows you to create and maintain multiple SmartLinks for different marketing purposes, campaigns, or service categories, enabling you to segment your lead generation efforts effectively and track performance across various promotional channels. Each SmartLink title can be descriptive and specific, helping your team quickly identify the source and purpose of incoming customer requests.
Step 4: Customize SmartLink <> Company Settings
The final step of setting up SmartLink is to establish company information that is communicated with your AI chatbot.
Name of your Assistant
The AI chatbot is given a name to assist with customer service.
Business Hours of Operation and Coverage area
Basic information allows AI chatbot to communicate general questions, and advises clients that request services outside of business hours or coverage area
Instructions
Intructions can be set using simple guideline that guides chatbot to obtain specific information. For example, "Ask Customer what brand of appliance needs service".
Step 5: Confirm SmartLink Settings
Centralized SmartLink Storage and Management Dashboard
Once your SmartLink is created and configured to your specifications, all settings are automatically saved and securely stored within the SmartLink manager dashboard, providing a centralized location for all your SmartLink assets and configurations. The transparency and accessibility of this management system allows authorized users to review, update, and modify settings as needed without requiring technical expertise or external support, ensuring your SmartLinks remain current and effective as your business requirements evolve.
Streamlined Testing and Implementation Process
This intuitive interface allows for quick testing and piloting capabilities as you first establish your SmartLink presence and begin integrating it into your marketing ecosystem. The ability to make real-time adjustments and immediately preview changes enables you to experiment with different configurations, test various customer journey flows, and optimize your SmartLink performance before full deployment across all your marketing channels. Additionally, the saved settings serve as a reliable reference point, allowing you to track changes over time, revert to previous configurations if necessary, and maintain consistency across multiple SmartLinks while continuously refining your approach based on customer feedback and conversion data. This testing-friendly environment reduces the risk associated with new implementations and empowers your team to confidently roll out SmartLink solutions that deliver measurable results for your business growth objectives.
