How to send Push Notifications to Clients and Admins in Manychat with Pushover?

Manychat is my favorite platform when building chatbots for Facebook Messenger because it comes with a visual flow builder which allows to just drag and drop elements into my automations, without having technical knowledge.

I love chat marketing because you know exactly which person is where on his customer journey because you’re having 1–1 conversations with them, even when it’s all automated.

One day a restaurant client asked me if he can receive a notification that doesn’t stop reminding him until switched off when a new online order comes in. Unfortunately, Manychats build in “notify admin” action only sends a single message in facebook that can easily be overheard in the heat of a restaurants kitchen.

Something else was required, something that’s not coming build in with Manychat.

Something that:

  • a sound that breaks through the noise,
  • repeats until acknowledgement,
  • is being received on multiple devices at the same time and
  • is working with any device (Android, iOS or Desktop).

That’s when I found the Pushover App and used it to build a “Better Notify” App for Manychat
