Answer Customer Questions in Real-Time: Live Chat Integrations are Here

Last updated on by Tyson Quick in Instapage Updates

The importance of connecting with customers when and where they are is a fundamental part of doing business. Today we’re thrilled to announce we’re making connecting with your customers even easier with live chat integration using Intercom, Olark, and Zendesk.

Why is the live chat integration important?

It’s more important than ever that brands in the digital age are readily available when and where people are trying to reach them. Tech-savvy consumers are interacting with businesses on many channels requiring marketing and sales to be available at multiple touch points. On a post-click landing page where first impressions matter and prospects evaluate your brand and offer within seconds, live chat can assist your lead gen efforts immensely just by having a support representative available to answer questions.

It’s important that you’re interacting with customers along the buyer’s journey when the difference between a deal or no deal frequently comes down to quickly answering prospect’s questions.

Now you can integrate the live chat software you’re already using into your Instapage post-click landing pages.

In alphabetical order, here are the three live chat platforms we integrate with and a few highlights from each brand.
