It communicates in several languages through <strong>messages <\/strong>with its users, who are generally a company\u2019s customers or prospects.  It can be used for a variety of corporate purposes. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"exemples-d-utilisation-du-chatbot-sms-en-entreprise\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Examples_of_how_SMS_chatbots_are_used_in_business\"><\/span>Examples of how SMS chatbots are used in business <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/tools.webeditor.network\/attachments\/f386549a-db04-49b0-b55f-a49cfc097b05?lite=1\" alt=\"corporate team building\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Today, <a href=\"https:\/\/botnation.ai\/en\/chatbot-usage\/\">SMS chatbots can be put to many uses<\/a> in a company. A few examples are given below. <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"l-utilisation-du-chatbot-sms-pour-communiquer-par-textos-avec-les-clients-non-connectes\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Using_SMS_chatbots_to_communicate_by_text_with_offline_customers\"><\/span>Using SMS chatbots to communicate by text with offline customers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n<p>Despite the progress of the digital sector and the increasing use of applications, many people around the world are not connected to <strong>the Internet<\/strong>. Either by personal choice or for reasons of discretion. They do, however, have a cell phone through which they can exchange messages. A <strong>company <\/strong>with an SMS chatbot will therefore be able to hold conversations with them, by text message, just as it does with its internet-connected customers. This will enhance its customer service and improve the<strong>user experience<\/strong> for its customers.     In fact, an offline customer will be pleased to see that a special interest is being taken in him\/her, and that he\/she can also send messages to make requests at any time and receive answers from customer service. <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"l-utilisation-du-chatbot-sms-pour-faire-des-promotions-efficaces\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Using_SMS_chatbots_for_effective_promotions\"><\/span>Using SMS chatbots for effective promotions <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n<p>Customers or service users are only part of a company\u2019s customer base. That said, to run effective promotions and reach all customers, or users of a service, it\u2019s important to find a way to reach customers who aren\u2019t connected. This is precisely what <a href=\"https:\/\/botnation.ai\/en\/what-is-a-chatbot\/\">the SMS chatbot<\/a> is for.  <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"l-utilisation-du-chatbot-pour-optimiser-son-service-client\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Using_chatbots_to_optimize_customer_service\"><\/span>Using chatbots to optimize customer service <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n<p>Customer service, whether it\u2019s generating message conversations with online or offline users, needs to show a certain <strong>dynamism<\/strong>. This is made possible by the SMS chatbot. It <strong>automatically <\/strong>handles customer message requests and provides a simple response. This optimizes customer service and enhances the user experience for service users.   <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"quels-avantages-offre-le-chatbot-sms-par-rapport-au-chatbot-web-classique\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_advantages_does_the_SMS_chatbot_offer_over_the_classic_web_chatbot\"><\/span>What advantages does the SMS chatbot offer over the classic web chatbot?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/tools.webeditor.network\/attachments\/1938aeac-c73d-4ddf-a60e-c5f24b18c535?lite=1\" alt=\"advantages, profits, benefits\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>SMS chatbots offer many advantages over traditional web chatbots for businesses. What are they? <\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Accessibility<\/strong>: not everyone has a phone connected to the Internet, but everyone has a cell phone through which they can hold a message conversation. The SMS chat bot enables companies to make their customer service as accessible as possible to this type of customer. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Autonomy<\/strong>: the SMS chat bot, capable of holding a conversation with its user by message, is a simple conversational robot. Unlike web chatbots, this tool doesn\u2019t need to be associated with a website or messaging application to function. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cost <\/strong>: a message chat bot is not much more expensive than a web chat bot.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"comment-creer-un-chatbot-sms-avec-botnation\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_create_an_SMS_chatbot_with_Botnation\"><\/span>How to create an SMS chatbot with Botnation?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n<p>To <a href=\"https:\/\/botnation.ai\/en\/chatbot-simple\/\">create a sms chatbot on Botnation<\/a>, you have two options.
