⏱ 25 minutes min
📊 Intermediate
Objective
Draft the question-and-answer flow for a basic website chatbot or messenger auto-responder.
Materials Needed
- AI chat tool
- Your business FAQ from an earlier tutorial, if built
Step-by-Step Instructions
-
1
Gather your top 5-8 customer questions (reuse the FAQ tutorial content if available).
-
2
Prompt: 'Turn this FAQ into a simple chatbot conversation flow: greeting, menu of topics, and short answers for each.'
-
3
Ask the AI to add a fallback message for questions the bot can't answer, directing to a human.
-
4
Discuss (briefly) how this script could be plugged into a free chatbot builder or messaging tool later.
-
5
Save the script as a blueprint for a future chatbot project.
Instructor TipKeep expectations realistic — this tutorial produces the script/content, not a fully working bot, unless paired with a no-code tool.
TakeawayEven without building the bot itself, a clear conversation script is the hardest and most valuable part to get right.
