CDE Internship Day 12: TechStak - ChatBot Deployment

As I re-designed the the ChatBot into the proper form (see previous blog post about chatbots), I'm pretty happy to have the Landing Page workflow as a template. Once I'd finished recreating everything, I went to save and it wouldn't save. An error message popped up saying that I couldn't save. Couldn't SAVE?!?! What could I do? I opened a new flow-builder and made the Bot-Bot once again. I must say, i'm getting better at making work-flows for bots! Having re-re-created my Bot-Bot and successfully saved it, I was checking other settings on the Playbooks Page and discovered the tiniest, little "settings" button. The third choice form the top of the dropdown menu said, "clone as a bot"!!! So basically, where I spent half a day, I could have made 3 clicks and gotten the exact same result, way quicker. The lesson here is, Drift has some UI, navigation and labeling issues. That's the thing when utilizing new technology, it's new and I'm not an expert with it, yet.

The Provider Page Bot-Bot, pop-up bot, is done and being deployed, live on the site. It's pretty cool to have your work go live for the world to see/use, kinda crazy and that's what I love about the internet!

Below is the largest work flow I've done so far, for the Small Business clients ChatBot:

Now we wait...... and see how the Bot effects website traffic, conversion rates and other analytics. On to my next trick, making an article about Chatbots, AI and Business Process management appear!

CDE Internship Day 13: ShopWindow - Iterations of a Webinar: A New Song

Working on a single project with a single focus can be intense sometimes. The sole goal is for me right now is to create and deliver (4) amazing webinars on the subject of QR codes, how they might be making a comeback and bridge the gap between online and offline in 2019 and beyond. With that goal, I've studied and researched for hours and hours on the topic of QR codes. I know a lot about QR codes, maybe too much. This webinar preparation reminds me of my early days as a budding musician. I'd be excited to learn a new song and I would play a recording of that song on a loop to listen to over and over. Each time I listened to that song and studied it, it became a little less exciting and a little less fun. Around the time you have that new tune rehearsed well enough to perform in front of an audience, a paying audience, you kind of hate it. All that time and effort, practice and study, but if I had to listen to that song one more time... Here's the trick though, I'd p...

CDE Internship Day 2: Lights, Camera, Locked Out?!?

At Spark East for another great session with Gavin and ShopWindow. Today started off a bit different, we were locked out of the building! Through no one's fault, circumstances led to our second session being held at the cafe next door. Good music, good food and an understanding staff made it a fine substitute for a Spark workspace. To start this session, we recapped our individual progress in our assigned Shop Window courses. I'm becoming more and more familiar with the usage of their technology. Gavin has given me access to virtual replica of ShopWindow, to learn, create and explore in. Once I have sufficient experience, I'm going to create a series of Webinars introducing new customers to the benefits of ShopWindow and helping current clients with any issues they may be experiencing. In addition, I've been tasked with contacting Template Designers, to start the process of integrating templates into the ShopWindow webpage builder tool. After Nate took us through so...
