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 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

CDE Internship Day 1: What am I Doing?!?

Hello and welcome to the blog of my Center for Digital Engagement through, Ann Arbor Spark and Eastern Michigan University, internship. I'll come up with a different name for all that in future posts, shorter, definitely shorter. Day 1: I was assigned to ShopWindow.io along with my partner, Nate. We had our first meeting at Spark East, out in Ypsilanti. Prior to Day 1, I'd met Gavin, CEO of ShopWindow, at TechWalk a week before and it was a great. I was able to introduce myself and get to know what ShopWindow was all about. This was my first time meeting Nate, he was great! We gathered around a conference table and started talks about what type of project we wanted to take on, as part of our internship. After discussing our interests and desires, we settled in and started plotting out our specific plans to accomplish these projects. I was enrolled in the companies various on-line courses, to understand the workings of Shop Window inside and out. Then we had a chanc

CDE Internship Day 4: Phone Interviews Go Askew (Listen Here)

Today started out with my focus on building off my previous scaffolding with the Takeaway Video and fleshing it out into a full-blown, researched, in-depth webinar on the benefits of QR codes in today's digital landscape. What better way to generate content than a classic phone interview with some experts. After outlining my interview questions, I found a quiet space in a corner of Spark-East and prepped for my first call. It's called coincidence for a reason, as I set up to start my phone interview, my interviewee Tina, called me first! I'd left a message with her the day before, but never expected to hear from her so soon. I started the conversation, excited to talk all about the benefits of QR codes in today's digital marketing. Within the first 3 questions, I got the impression that Tina wasn't as impressed with QR as I was led to believe. So when I asked, "do you use QR codes yourself currently or with your clients?" Tina quickly said, "No, no
