About Attentive
Attentive is one of the most powerful SMS marketing platforms for ecommerce, and the Bookbag integration ensures your AI support agent can work in perfect sync with it. Bookbag can read Attentive subscriber attributes and segment membership to personalize support conversations for known SMS subscribers. It can also handle inbound SMS support messages through Attentive's two-way messaging capability, letting customers text your brand number for help the same way they receive promotions. Support outcomes flow back into Attentive as custom attributes, so your SMS marketing team can follow up with targeted messages after a support interaction.
