Messenger Funnels, a digital agency, was facing a significant challenge in terms of time and resource management. The agency was spending approximately 30 hours every week on running and analyzing reports on conversion rates, engagement, and other metrics for their clients. This process involved large daily data exports, importing the data into a new application, and a lot of manual manipulation. The repetitive and time-consuming nature of these tasks was taking a toll on the team's productivity and efficiency. The agency was in dire need of a solution that could automate these processes and save valuable time.

Messenger Funnels is a digital agency founded by Mary Kathryn Johnson. The agency recognized the potential of Facebook Messenger as a powerful marketing tool, especially when compared to lower-converting marketing emails. Messenger Funnels provides clients with customized chatbots and also offers conversion insights and calculations for their clients' marketing campaigns. The agency was spending a significant amount of time on manual data manipulation and report generation, which was affecting their productivity and efficiency. The agency sought to automate as much of this work as possible to focus more on customer needs and service fulfillment.

To address this challenge, Mary Kathryn Johnson, the founder and CEO of Messenger Funnels, turned to Zapier, an app automation tool. Zapier was used to automate the time-consuming process of data export, manipulation, and report generation. The agency also utilized ManyChat, an all-in-one messenger marketing platform, to automatically send data between the apps they use with clients. With the help of 'Zaps', or automatic processes, Mary Kathryn was able to create a chatbot to register leads to each client's webinars and another to calculate how much more Messenger can convert customers than email marketing. This solution not only automated the reporting process but also provided valuable insights into the effectiveness of Messenger as a marketing tool.

• The automation of the reporting process through Zapier and ManyChat has brought about significant operational improvements for Messenger Funnels. The team no longer has to spend hours on manual data manipulation and report generation, which has greatly improved their productivity and efficiency. The automation has also allowed the team to focus more on fulfilling customer needs and promises, thereby improving customer service. Furthermore, the use of chatbots for registering leads and calculating conversion rates has provided valuable insights into the effectiveness of Messenger as a marketing tool, which has become a major selling point for the agency.
