Key Takeaways & Learning Goals
- Set maximum allowable discount percentages the AI can offer to close hesitant shoppers.
- Define sensitive topics (refunds, angry customers, custom orders) that immediately alert human staff.
- Configure business reply hours and fallback automated notices.
Configuring Discount Ceilings
To recover abandoned conversations or convert price-sensitive customers, you can authorize the AI to offer dynamic discounts up to a strict maximum ceiling (e.g., maximum 10% off or ৳150 off). The AI will never exceed your set threshold.
Human Escalation & 'Needs You' Queue
When a customer exhibits high sentiment frustration, requests a refund exceeding your threshold, or asks an unanswerable question, Conversora automatically pauses AI autopilot for that thread, flags the conversation with 'Needs You', and sends a push alert to your team.
