Increase Reservations with Live Chat for Your Website

Online travel agents have the difficulty of offering a customer experience that differs from other providers and reflects the personal service that was expected from a traditional high street agency, in order to increase booking rates.

Many travel providers have implemented website live chat software for visitors to be able to instantly connect with advisors and have their questions answered quickly. The communication channel enables travel agents to provide a much more tailored service. So, If this is your sector contact us to find out how you can get Click4Assistance live chat on your website

Initiating a Chat Session

There are a couple of ways that a visitor can start a chat. A chat button is positioned on the website, this is either embedded into a certain area (next to phone number or on the contact us page) or ‘sticks’ to the webpage and follows the visitor as they browse the website.

Alternatively, a proactive approach can be presented at any point during the customer’s journey that invites the visitor to start a chat. It is the digital equivalent of a travel rep approaching a visitor and asking if they require any help.

The proactive invitations can be completely tailored to what information the visitor is viewing. This can include certain locations, seasonal dates, or packages such as all-inclusive or honeymoon offers etc.

live chat for your website invites visitors to engage with your customer service advisors

You can configure what page(s) the proactive invitation appears on and the duration before they are displayed. They can easily be amended within the software, allowing your company to remain in full control of the messages presented all using the live chat for your website.

Once in a chat, the visitor can ask any questions they have. Advisors have functionality available to help aid their responses as they would if they were physically sitting in a travel agents. Brochures would be pulled off the displays and provided to the visitor with a representative giving their suggestions. If these have been digitalised an agent can send the enquirer the brochure via file transfer during the chat session, allowing them to discuss the options instantly.

If there is information on the website that is of interest to the visitor, the advisor can automatically navigate the enquirer’s browser to the relevant page. This is a great technique for cross and upselling as it gets the information directly in front of the visitor. This can be used to show them upgrades, excursion options, or alternative flight details etc.
