TMM020: How The School of Bots Was Born

March 07, 2018

Chatbots are a new thing right now. Many people say it’s just a fad – that it won’t last a long time.
What do you think?
In this episode, Natasha discusses chatbots as “white space” for marketers, how bots are different than e-mail, the big divide that separates technical and non-technical people, and so much more.
In addition, she gives us a backstory on how she got into the bot world, how School of Bots was conceived, and its mission to help people build and grow highly profitable chatbot agencies. Plus! You will be treated with some great information that you can apply right now.

Natasha Who?
Natasha serves as the Chief Marketing Officer of Ineffable Marketing – a full service agency that builds and services Messenger bots.

Natasha Takahashi’s desire to create her own digital empire while traveling around the world guided her to chatbots, after hearing Zuckerberg speak about them at the F8 Conference. She co-founded a Chatbot Marketing Agency, Ineffable Marketing with Kyle Willis. Then created one of the leading chatbot schools online called School of Bots in partnership with Chatfuel.

“What I’m most excited, at least for this year, is for a lot of consumers to start using bots on a daily basis.”
