Why Your Product Catalog in Aisista Matters

Your Aisista AI chatbot learns from the information you provide. A comprehensive and well-structured product catalog directly impacts its ability to:

  • Answer Product Inquiries Instantly: Customers get immediate answers about features, pricing, and availability.
  • Upsell and Cross-sell Effectively: The AI can suggest related products or upgrades based on customer interest.
  • Streamline the Sales Process: By providing all necessary information, the AI reduces friction and moves customers closer to purchase.
  • Capture Orders Accurately: For businesses that enable order capture, detailed product information ensures smooth transactions.
  • Enhance Customer Experience: Accurate and readily available information builds trust and satisfaction.

Step-by-Step: Managing Your Products in Aisista

Step 1: Access Your Product Catalog

Once logged into your Aisista dashboard and with a business selected, navigate to the Products section. Here, you'll see a clear overview of all your currently listed products and services. Each product is displayed in a card format, showing its image, name, and an option to delete it.

Step 2: Adding a New Product

To introduce a new product or service to your AI's knowledge base, click the "Add Product" button. You'll be presented with a straightforward form:

  1. Product Name: Enter the clear and concise name of your product or service.
  2. Description: This is crucial! Provide a detailed, engaging, and accurate description. Include key features, benefits, specifications, pricing details, and any relevant FAQs. The more information you provide here, the smarter your AI will be in discussing it with customers.
  3. Stock Count: If applicable, enter the current stock quantity. This allows your AI to inform customers about availability.
  4. Picture: Upload a high-quality image of your product. A visual representation significantly enhances the customer experience and helps your AI identify the product more effectively. You'll see a preview of your selected image before saving.

After filling in all the details, click "Add Product" to save it to your catalog.

Step 3: Editing Existing Products

Business details, product features, or stock levels can change. Aisista makes it easy to keep your catalog updated:

  1. From the Products overview, click on the product card you wish to edit. This will open the same form you used to add the product, pre-filled with its current information.
  2. Make any necessary changes to the name, description, stock count, or image. You can delete existing images and upload new ones.
  3. Click "Update Product" to save your revisions.

Step 4: Deleting Products

If a product is discontinued or no longer offered, you can easily remove it from your catalog. On each product card in the Products overview, you'll find a "Delete" button. Click it, confirm your action, and the product will be removed.

Best Practices for an Optimized Product Catalog

  • Be Detailed and Specific: Don't just list features; explain benefits. Use clear, concise language.
  • Keep Descriptions Up-to-Date: Regularly review and update product information, especially pricing, promotions, and stock levels.
  • Use High-Quality Images: Visuals are powerful. Ensure your product images are professional and accurately represent the item.
  • Categorize Logically (if applicable): While Aisista handles the AI's understanding, internal categorization can help you manage a large catalog.
  • Think Like a Customer: What questions would you ask about this product? Include those answers in the description.
