CoreCommerce Integration: How to Connect Your Online Store to ManyChat

To be the best you’ve got to set your business up for success, and having the right marketing automation software is essential to beat out the competition. 

Three-quarters of all companies already use at least one marketing automation tool, while 76% of marketers see a positive ROI within a year of implementing marketing automation into their business. 

While other eCommerce software offers general automation guidance, nurturing prospects with highly personalized, useful content has — until today — been far from easy. 

When connecting ManyChat with the CoreCommerce platform, you can simplify and automate marketing tasks and workflows, to increase efficiency, build relationships with customers, and grow revenue faster.

Here’s a handy walkthrough to get set up, today.
