Have you tried the recently announced Newsfeed Ads for Messenger to drive traffic to your bot? https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/2016/09/12/new-messeng

  Yes, I actually wrote this post on that subject. http://bit.ly/2hngmmr http://bit.ly/2hngmmr I've seen so so results so far. It's clear that Facebook is working on finding ways to increase people messaging in. 1. I think there will be new best practices on top of new targeting for this destination. 2. I'm genuinely interested to hear other success stories and learnings. Are people finding that Messaging apps are 'build it and they will come' or are there new techniques for driving usage?

    Great post, I bookmarked it (and your website as well). I'm also looking for more success stories / use cases. I'm personally not very convinced about automated conversational interfaces, but Messenger does provide a great opportunity (1bn users) and platform (ios/android/web) to create and grow new kinds of applications with very little effort, if only we can figure out how to get people using it :)

      Be convince about automated conversational interfaces! They are not the miracle that AI would be, but they exist and 3-4x the results of webforms.... Once the conversation starts. Here is another case study I wrote about from the election. http://bit.ly/2fPwwSz http://bit.ly/2fPwwSz The top comment on this post is the same topic, worth checking out. Thanks for the bookmark.
