2. Select your preferred type of chat and play with the chat feature

Following that, you can select one of the RumbleTalk chat types. All of which are equipped with powerful engagement tools that have been carefully selected for you and your clients’ benefit.

what chat
  • Social Chat — A public group chat that is designed for communities and open discussions.
  • Expert’s Chat — This acts as a virtual consultation space. It is an ideal setting for experts (such as healthcare practitioners, lawyers, fitness gurus, advisors, etc) to meet with a client in private.
  • Member’s Chat — Only members who are already logged in to your website will be able to join the conversation. This should be used in closed private group chat discussions. You can also include a log-in page to limit the chat to your members only.
  • Moderated Chat — Assign a moderator to manage the group chat and perform functions such as screening inbound messages before they go live, banning or disconnecting specific users, limiting users, exporting transcripts, and more.
  • Private Chat — A type of chat in which users can communicate with other users on one-on-one conversations. Use this for private discussions and networking without the distractions of a group chat.

Because your purpose for the chat may vary depending on the event, you are free to change the chat type at any time based on what you currently require.

3. Personalize your chat room

It’s simple to start with one of our pre-made designs to make your chat room more personalized. There are also numerous customization options available such as CSS. You can customize the colors of your group chat room and add your own logo or icon. Why not post a welcome message for your audience if you really want your event to stand out?

This immediately engages them and encourages them to stay for a longer period of time. It’s important that everyone understands how they can participate and assist other users. If they enter a chat room with no one there, then that’s going to be a big letdown.

In the Advanced Design tab of your admin panel, we provide a quick editor for simple point-and-click customization of the web group chat. Take your time here to explore the various designs and personalization options.

4. Invite others to your chat

RumbleTalk makes it easy to find people to chat with. Invite business partners, patients, job fair candidates, and clients using only their smartphones. By including a QR code on your digital invitations, they can instantly access your chat. With just a scan, you can redirect anyone to your chat log-in page. With this chat feature, you can say adios to long lines!

Simply click on the gear icon. Then, select QR to generate your chat’s unique QR code.
