by Tyson Quick in Instapage Updates Instapage blog post featured image

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.

Intercom

Intercom has the goal to “Help people quickly and personally with live chat.” A few of their top features include:

  • Android and iOS Mobile app
  • Collaboration focus: single pricing no matter how many users
  • Targeted messages based on visitor behavior

Targeted messaging is particularly interesting because it allows brands to customize the message for each respective page visitor, such as these:

  • Search transcripts: filter for date, keywords, tags to understand what customers are needing or review feedback on a specific product/feature
