SeoSamba Mensa Hero Application

Mensa Hero lets you start conversations with your website visitors and continue communicating with them directly from your mobile phone. It combines website messaging, SMS, WhatsApp, and CRM functionality in one convenient solution.

WhatsApp Messaging with Mensa Hero

Mensa Hero includes built-in WhatsApp messaging, allowing your business to communicate with customers through one of the world's most widely used messaging platforms.

In addition to SMS through your Mensa Hero number, WhatsApp can be connected directly to your Google Business Profile. This allows customers to contact your business through WhatsApp and lets your team manage those conversations through Mensa Hero.

To add WhatsApp to your Google Business Profile, use the following format:

wa.me/ followed by your phone number in international format, without spaces or special characters.

For example:

wa.me/447912345678

To add the link to your Google Business Profile:

  1. Log in to your Google Business Profile.
  2. Open Edit Profile.
  3. Go to Contact and select Chat.
  4. Add your WhatsApp link in the WhatsApp field.

Once configured, both WhatsApp and SMS conversations are managed through Mensa Hero. This helps your team respond faster, keep conversations organized, and provide a consistent customer experience without switching between different applications.

You can customize your website messaging widget to match your business and communication style. Available options include:

Messaging Service & Mobile CRM

Mensa Hero can also be used together with the CRM features provided by the SeoSamba CRM app.

To start using the messaging service with CRM features, select a SeoToaster site connected to your SeoSamba Marketing OS account on the configuration screen. The rest of the widget setup process remains the same.

When a new customer submits a request through the SMS widget on your website, their information is automatically added to the CRM. This allows your team to continue the conversation while keeping the customer's information and communication history in one place.

Collect Payments with Stripe Through Mensa Hero

Mensa Hero now lets you generate and send Stripe payment links directly from a customer conversation.

This is especially useful when you need to quickly collect payment or a deposit for a product or service. Instead of leaving the conversation to create a payment request elsewhere, you can generate the payment link directly from Mensa Hero and send it to your customer.

How to Create a Payment Link

  1. Connect your Stripe account. You can connect Stripe by downloading and setting up the SeoSamba POS application, or from the desktop version of your SeoSamba website.
  2. Open a Mensa Hero conversation with the customer you would like to charge.
  3. Select Payment Link from the messaging options.
  4. Enter the amount you would like to collect.
  5. Enter the product or service name, such as "Kitchen Sink Installation" or "General Repairs."
  6. Click Create and Insert to generate the Stripe payment link and insert it into the conversation.
  7. Review and send the message to your customer.

The customer can then use the Stripe payment link to complete the payment. This makes it easy to collect deposits, service payments, or payments for products while continuing to communicate with your customer through Mensa Hero.

Once Stripe is connected, you can continue working with your customers directly through Mensa Hero while using Stripe to securely collect payments.
