Frequently Asked Questions
If you are a customer-centric brand, you need quick, in-context and in-the-moment feedback from your customers and sales channels. Merren is ideal for you.
Merren is also useful if your customers do not often reply to online surveys but are available on messaging apps like WhatsApp 24x7. Brands have used Merren to reach several such customer types that include millennials and seniors, busy professionals like hairdressers, salon owners, drivers, mechanics and sales executives.
It’s really simple. Merren just uses the power of messaging apps to collect customer feedback.
- You do not even need to have a business account or a page on any of the platform you want to push your survey out through. For example, you don’t need a WhatsApp number or a Facebook account. Just subscribe and deploy your first survey.
- You are ready to push your survey out as soon as you subscribe and deploy your first survey. Get set go.
- Of course, we can always integrate the survey through your account on these platforms as well.
Actually, Merren is designed to be platform agnostic. Our philosophy is to help brands find customer feedback via channels that their customers are already spending time on. As of today, WhatsApp and Facebook/ Instagram Messenger are mediums of conversations that a whole lot of customers are spending considerable time on. Hence, we have chosen these mediums for now.
As we go along, we intend to build on other platforms like RCS, Viber, Telegram etc.If you have a conversational medium where your customers spend time on and would like for us to expand Merren to, please write to us at [email protected] and we’d be happy to help.
Great question. With Merren, you can send out questions and collect responses in audio or video form – so someone can just listen in or see. Using messaging apps like FB Messenger and WhatsApp, they can then share information in audio or video forms themselves. Easy come, easy go.
Let’s just say that Merren is the survey platform of the 2020s. It recognises that customers today spend more time on their mobiles – more specifically on messaging apps – when compared to the time spent on their inbox or their browsers.
Our underlying philosophy is that customer-centric brands must be able to collect customer feedback effortlessly. So if your customer spends more time on messaging apps, that is where you should be collecting their feedback. And that’s what we help you do.
