Picture this: A long-time buyer sends you a message on social media, unhappy about a billing issue.

With the agility of a ninja, Auto-moderation jumps into action, sends a comforting auto-response, and assigns the issue directly to Carlos, your customer support superhero! πŸ¦ΈπŸ½β€β™‚οΈ

Losing this client? Not on your watch! Auto-moderation's got your back.

Let's explore how to assign high-importance issues to specific moderators using Auto-moderation. It's about getting the right problem to the right problem-solver!


How it works

Curious about the mechanics of auto-assign? Here's how it works:

  • First things first: you set an Auto-moderation rule (like auto-replying to 'damaged item' comments in a private message) 🩹

  • You can also set the rule to auto-assign these messages to chosen moderators - the ones you've added to your NapoleonCat account previously.

    For instance, you could assign those conversations to Martha, one of your moderators. πŸ‘₯

  • She'll see the message waiting for her in "My Tasks" folder in Social Inbox.

    Now, the issue is in Martha's hands, ready for her to monitor and step in with a resolution. Efficiency level: πŸ’―

Let's see how to set up auto-assigning in Auto-moderation rules below. πŸ‘‡πŸ½


How to set up auto-assigning

  1. Create a new Auto-moderation rule or tweak an existing one

  2. Choose your platform - Facebook, Instagram, or Instagram ads - and the social media profile(s) you want the rule to work on (a)

    Then, pick the type of message (such as organic comments, ad comments, or comments for a specific post, private messages) (b)

    Set a condition for your rule. (c) Want to reply to all comments or only comments with links, for example? Or, maybe just to the first private message? You've got it!

  3. Time for the fun part! What sort of interactions do you want to auto-assign to a moderator?

    🎯 You can program your rule to trigger based on specific keywords, user tags, or both.

    For example, say your VIP customer messages you about a faulty product. You could set triggers for keywords such as malfunctioning, broken, defective, issue, not up to par. And also target users you've tagged as "VIP customer" before.

    Just a friendly reminder that the trigger field is yours to customize! Spot all those important conversations that call for a human touch - and set up your rule accordingly.

  4. It's decision time for your social media action.

    Let's say you're focusing on complaints in comments.

    You could choose "Reply in a private message", writing something along the lines of "We're deeply sorry for the inconvenience! One of our dedicated team members will contact you shortly to rectify this":
