Sending a Message to Award a Random Winner

In this article, we will discuss the process of sending a message to award a random winner. This is the second part of a series that began with a previous video on creating a random drawing. If you haven't watched the first video, we recommend doing so before proceeding with this tutorial.

Introduction

Before jumping into the details, it's essential to have a basic understanding of the topic. The goal is to send a message to announce the winner of a random drawing and deliver the appropriate message to both the winner and non-winners.

Sending a Message to Award a Random Winner

The first step of this process involves accessing ManyChat's actions and selecting Google Sheets. Using the "Get Value by Row" function, we can retrieve the winner's information from the designated spreadsheet. This information is determined by a lookup column that matches the winner's referral number.

To enable this lookup functionality, a bot field must be created, ensuring the bot can find and match the winner's referral number. Furthermore, a custom field should also be created to store the winner's information.

Delivering the Winner: Good News and Bad News

Once the winner's information is retrieved from the spreadsheet, a condition is set to verify if the person receiving the message is the winner. If they are the winner, another condition checks if they opted in for a one-time notification. If they did, a congratulatory message is sent to inform them of their victory. If they didn't opt-in, their email address is saved for possible future communication.

For non-winners, another condition checks if they opted in for a one-time notification. If they did, a message is sent to provide consolation and a small incentive. This could be a coupon or discount code for their next purchase. If they didn't opt-in, an email is sent to inform them about the result.

This process ensures that winners and non-winners are notified appropriately and provided with the necessary information or consolation.

Conclusion

In conclusion, this article has outlined the process of sending a message to award a random winner. By following the steps outlined in this tutorial, you can effortlessly deliver the news to both winners and non-winners, ensuring a smooth and efficient communication process.
