What is Lead Generation in Messenger?

The Facebook Messenger Lead Adverts look the same as any other advert in the news feed or stories section on either Facebook or Instagram. Instead of opening up a lead form after being click on, you will be diverted to the Facebook Messenger app.

The questions are asked by live bot and depending on what you answer, the next question for the user can differ. The information that the user provides in the chat is stored as a lead in the same way that a lead form is stored.

Note: this is Facebook's own chatbot capability. You could also create your own custom chatbot using one of many chatbot tools - and still connect leads to Driftrock.

How do Facebook Messenger Lead Adverts work?

1. A user in browsing in their Facebook or Instagram app
2. The user finds and clicks on an advert which opens the Facebook Messenger app
3. The user speaks to the chatbot and answers relevant questions
4. The user completes the chat and is directed to the companies website
5. The lead data is stored on the Facebook platform or is sent to a CRM via Driftrock’s Lead Sync Feature
