  • Once the conversation detail view is open, click on the close button in the top bar to close the conversation

Snooze A Conversation

If you are in an open conversation with a customer and want to get back to it at a later time, let your customers know when you’ll get back to them and snooze the conversation. Snoozing a conversation will temporarily remove it from your conversation list for a time period set by you.

To snooze a conversation in Engage,

Managing Conversation Actions

You can perform various actions to manage your engagement better, like assigning conversations to particular team members or user groups, performing bulk actions to save time and improve efficiency and adding tags to categorize and analyze.

Assign Conversations To Users & User Groups

Since Statusbrew is a platform built for teams, you can assign any conversation to a user & user group in Statusbrew.

Bulk Actions

Social can be really busy and your inbox can be flooded with hundreds of messages daily. Engage makes it easy to deal with multiple messages all at once with Bulk Actions. You can easily filter similar types of conversations using inbuilt filters in Engage and bulk assign them to other users/user groups, or simply close them.

Keep Track By Adding Tags

While managing social, your team has to deal with all kinds of conversations. Content Tagging helps you categorize your most important conversation, topics, and trends in your inbox. Over time, you'll gather valuable information about the types of conversation which you can see via our Tag Reports.

To tag a conversation in Engage,

  • Open the conversation you want to add tags for, hover over it and click on the tag icon beside the conversation. You can now choose from your added tags

Additional Actions

Apart from the actions mentioned above, Engage also allows you to mark conversations as a priority, change conversation sentiments, add tags to conversations, translate conversations, and more. Let's see how you can perform each of these actions.

1. Prioritize Important Conversations

Conversations that are important and require the immediate attention of your team can be marked as a priority in Engage. You can easily filter these conversations by setting the filter "Priority" to "True." To mark conversations as a priority, click on the conversation, go to the details section and click on the Star icon beside priority.

Managing the sentiments of your conversations allow you to analyze your customer's opinion towards your marketing campaigns. You can manually change this sentiment by clicking the Emoji icon in the details section of the conversation.

Change Sentiment

Also, instead of going to the Details section, you can just hover over the conversation and update the sentiment by clicking on the Emoji Icon.

3. Easily Connect With Foreign Customers

Translate any conversation in a foreign language in Engage and connect with audiences from across the world. Open any conversation you want to translate, hover over it, and click on the Translate icon to view the translated version.

4. Make Users & User Groups A Part Of Your Conversation

Often a conversation needs to be seen by another member of your team. They can be better placed to answer it, or you can benefit from their opinion before replying. You can add notes and @mention any user or user group, and they'll be notified by email/Slack.

Click on "Add Note," compose your note and click on Add to save it
