🧠 How to Write Your “FAQ” for HelloManny
Think of this section not as a public FAQ page, but as training notes for a new customer service agent.
Imagine you just hired someone and gave them a document so they could confidently answer customer emails without asking you every time. That’s what this is.
HelloManny uses these entries as its knowledge base to draft replies on your behalf.
✅ What to Include
Write your Q&A as if you are explaining your business to a smart but brand-new team member.
Be specific. Be clear. Be complete.
Examples:
-
What areas do you serve?
-
What are your rates or pricing structure?
-
What are your business hours?
-
What services do you offer (and not offer)?
-
How do customers book or schedule?
-
Cancellation policy?
-
Refund policy?
-
Turnaround time?
-
Payment methods accepted?
-
Special restrictions or limitations?
-
Frequently misunderstood situations?
The more complete this section is, the better your AI agent performs.
🎯 Write Answers Like Internal Instructions
Instead of:
Q: What do you do?
A: Cleaning services.
Write:
Q: What services do we offer?
A: We offer residential cleaning in San Francisco and Daly City. We provide standard cleaning, deep cleaning, and move-out cleaning. We do not provide commercial cleaning or post-construction cleaning.
Instead of vague, be explicit.
🚫 What NOT to Do
-
Don’t write marketing copy.
-
Don’t write in a promotional tone.
-
Don’t assume customers “already know.”
-
Don’t leave answers incomplete.
-
Don’t say “Contact us for more info” if you actually know the answer.
This is internal training material, not website content.
🧩 Break Complex Topics Into Separate Questions
Instead of one long answer covering multiple topics, split them:
-
What is your hourly rate?
-
How do you estimate job duration?
-
What is included in a standard cleaning?
-
Do you bring your own supplies?
More structured input = more accurate AI replies.
🛑 Avoid Ambiguity
If you have conditions, spell them out.
Example:
We charge $120 per hour. Most apartments under 500 sq ft take about 1 hour. Larger spaces may require 2+ hours depending on condition.
The AI cannot assume what you didn’t write.
🔍 Think of Edge Cases
Ask yourself:
-
What questions do customers repeatedly ask?
-
What mistakes or misunderstandings happen often?
-
What situations require clarification?
-
What should the AI never promise?
Include those answers here.
💡 Pro Tip
If a human customer service rep would need the information to answer confidently, it belongs here.
If it’s something only you know in your head, add it here.
🔁 You Can Update Anytime
