What are the 5 points for LINE Official Account chat support that lead to sales?
The 5 points for individual chat support on Official LINE are as follows.
① Reply to all individual chats
② The iron rule is to reply within 24 hours
③ Tag people who chat with you
④ Records of chat support become marketing assets
⑤ Design it so people can chat easily
I will explain each one!
① Reply to all individual chats
When you receive an individual chat, do you ever find it troublesome and ignore it?
But in fact, people who proactively send chats are already very 'strong' potential customers. Among your LINE subscribers, they are super important users who make up less than 10-20%.
Not replying to such users is a huge lost opportunity. Even a single word like "Thank you" can build trust and create a good impression, making them think, "This person is really paying attention."
Trust is built through consistency. First, try to reply politely to everyone.
2. The iron rule is to reply within 24 hours
When readers send a chat, it is because they are "struggling with something right now."
Whether or not you can respond to that concern immediately will greatly change their:
level of trust
progress toward becoming a fan
purchasing intent
significantly.
In fact,
comments like "Thank you for the quick reply!"
and "I signed up because your response was polite" are very common.
If you install the dedicated LINE Official Account app on your smartphone and turn on notifications, you can respond in real-time.
Speed = Trust.
Try to be conscious of replying within 24 hours as much as possible.
3. Tag people who chat with you
LINE Official Accounts have a tagging feature.
Many people might wonder, "What are tags used for?" but this actually makes a big difference later on.
For example:
"Has questions"
"Individual response completed"
"Interested in XX"
If you apply a tag like this,
you can send messages based on themes of interest
you can narrow down your list of prospective customers
—these are some of the benefits.
Tags are a record of a reader's interests. If you want to drive sales, this is a feature you absolutely must use.
4. Chat support records become marketing assets
Recording and analyzing chat interactions is also useful for marketing and service improvement.
For example,
"You said in the seminar that I could use a coupon, but I can't find it"
→→ Improve coupon placement and announcement methods to increase usage rates
"I missed the product that had a deadline yesterday. Can I still buy it?"
→→ Improve delivery frequency and timing to increase sales
In this way,chat is the "voice of the customer" itself. It is a treasure trove of customer needs.
The interactions that might seem tedious are actually packed with business hints.
5. Design for easy chatting
For those who say, "I don't get any chats in the first place," is your setup designed to make it easy to chat?
In fact, a few small adjustments can significantly change your reply rate.
Example:
✔ Use text that encourages chatting
"If you have any questions, please reply to this LINE account."
"If you are interested in XX, please send 'Interested'"
✔ Encourage chat with a gift
"We have prepared a gift. If you would like it, please send the word 'gift'."
By incorporating such triggers that make users "feel compelled to take action" into your broadcasts, you can significantly increase your response rate.
Lowering the hurdle for them to send that first message is the key to building a lasting relationship.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) about individual chat support
Q1. What should I do if I'm too busy to reply immediately?
A. Even if you cannot reply right away, setting up an automated response message can provide peace of mind. For example, including a note like "We will reply within ● hours" conveys sincerity.
Q2. I'm not getting any chats; how can I increase them?
A. Incorporating broadcast messages that encourage chat (such as questions or gift offers) will increase your response rate. Focus on creating mechanisms that make it easy for users to send a quick message.
Q3. Is it okay to use templates for chat support?
A. Yes, that is fine. In fact, templates are effective for efficient support. However, the key is to add a personal touch, such as including their name or customizing it slightly, to give the impression that you are replying specifically to them.
Q4. What are the best rules for using tags?
A. We recommend simple and easy-to-understand rules for easier management, such as "Has questions," "Interested in services," or "Seminar attendee." Keep them organized so they are easy to search and extract later.
Q5. Can I outsource chat support?
A. Yes, you can. By hiring an agency familiar with L-Step or LINE Official Accounts, you can reduce your operational burden while maintaining the quality of your responses. Sharing reply rules and templates is the key.
