Mr. Blue - SMS Chatbot for Dealership Automation

Project Overview

Mr. Blue is an advanced online CRM platform created to streamline dealership operations through automation. The platform enables multiple dealerships to register, connect with their existing CRM systems, and efficiently manage staff, customers, files, and communications. Additionally, Mr. Blue integrates a conversational panel and a chatbot, trained specifically to enhance user interaction and engagement.

Objective

The objective of Mr. Blue was to increase customer engagement and operational efficiency by automating key dealership activities. This included utilizing an AI-powered chatbot that would adhere to customer privacy regulations, such as the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), while offering personalized interaction with customers.

Challenges

Developing Mr. Blue came with distinct challenges:

• TCPA Compliance: To comply with the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, dealerships were restricted from sending messages to consumers without prior consent. This required a secure and intelligent mechanism for automated consent and customer engagement.

• High-Volume Communication: Managing a high volume of interactions and broadcasts for staff and customer communication demanded a scalable and robust infrastructure.

• Third-Party Integrations: Integrating with existing CRMs and ensuring seamless API connections to third-party tools, including Twilio SMS API, required meticulous planning and rigorous testing.
