We want to streamline chatbot ad creation based on existing insights, previous campaign data, subject expert inputs, and lastly, brand client's specific requirements and content choices.
Encourage clients to write conversation scripts upon a pre-set format, on specific topics
Challenges
Any chatbot ad creation will face with the following challenges:
Conversation needs to reflect brand website structure and content
Conversation needs to be short and engaging
Feedback & direct input from audiences should inform all updates
Content experts (Brands & their design agencies) should be able to create chatbots themselves
Time, time, time
Process
We design the following process based on technical requirements, best design practices and marketing industry work flows:
Client to submit campaign goals and requirements
Octaive to setup communication documents and the chatbot foundation
Octaive to provide design guide, conversation topics, basic chatbot responses and intent mapping
Client to build/edit existing content and suggest new content and design
Client to use our drag-n-drop conversation builder to assemble chatbot ads
Findings & Learnings
The best thing about planning is that it allows a team to access situation, get feedback and be ready to improve.
Upon implementing this process, we learn the following as a team:
Client feedback comes in about 7-15 days. It's therefore better to begin with main conversation flow, then use the sign-off gap to propose response, intent mapping and graphic design
Most client prefer mark-up as a feedback method. Therefore it is useful to provide UI and content template as reference, not a step-by-step flow for them to go through
Visualisation of every content views in the chatbot ads they are creating helps shorten the sign-off time greatly

Why Am I Describing This Process?
Because this is the design process of our own Octaive Conversation Builder. The user, the workflow, the experiment & observation, and then we have our MVP scope.
This is a workable design process for all applications.
