Omnichannel is a cross-channel service strategy that lets organizations use social media channels and messaging apps as customer touchpoints. This helps companies establish better relationships with their customers and visitors, as well as improve their customers' experience with the brand.

Creating a Channel

Add your Facebook Pages as channels to your maaiiconnect Service Account and let your Staff members manage your customers' and visitors' inquiries from these pages directly on their maaiiconnect Workspace.

For detailed instructions on setting up your Facebook channel, please refer to the Connecting Facebook Pages to maaiiconnect section of this Guide.
