Conversation Mode
Conversation Mode determines how Nivon handles the start of a visitor conversation.
Choose between Chat First and Lead First based on the agent’s main goal.
Chat First
Chat First prioritizes helping the visitor with their questions.
Choose this mode when:
- Customer support is the main goal
- Visitors should get answers before lead collection
- The agent is mainly used to resolve customer questions
Lead First
Lead First prioritizes lead collection at the start of the conversation.
Choose this mode when:
- Lead generation is a main goal
- You want to collect visitor information early
- The agent is used to qualify potential customers
Which mode should you choose?
Use Chat First for support-focused agents where answering questions is the priority.
Use Lead First for sales-focused agents where collecting visitor information is the priority.
You can change the conversation mode from your agent's configuration settings.
