🧠 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

​

As you notice:

​

  • The AI asking for clarification too often

  • The AI missing something

  • Customers asking new types of questions

 

Come back and refine this section.

 

This is a living knowledge base.
