John Charcol aimed to optimise their website and improve conversion rates.

John Charcol aimed to generate higher-quality leads from their website and engage visitors more effectively, particularly outside traditional business hours. Despite having a strong brand and reputation, they wanted to better connect with visitors who browsed without enquiring or reached out after hours.

Understanding that the mortgage decision-making process can be lengthy and complex, John Charcol knew they needed a solution that was both consistent and personal. Achieving this level of service internally, however, was not logistically feasible.

SmartChat is proven to outperform chatbots, delivering 5x higher website conversion rates.

When John Charcol set out to elevate their lead generation and engage clients beyond traditional business hours, they knew they needed more than just a basic chat tool. They needed a solution that would bring their already strong brand and reputation to the next level by creating a deeper, more personalised connection with potential clients.

SmartChat was the answer. With its innovative mix of smart targeting and human-led, 24/7 support, SmartChat transformed how John Charcol interacted with website visitors. The results spoke volumes—a 21% increase in website conversion rates proved that this approach was not only effective but game-changing.

SmartChat’s ability to capture leads after hours meant that John Charcol could engage clients at the most opportune moments, deepening relationships and boosting client trust. It was more than just a tool; it was an investment that reinforced their position as a client-first, responsive mortgage provider and set them apart from the competition.

SmartChat combines the best of human-led live chat with data-driven performance marketing to drive results.

This fully managed solution provided John Charcol with high-quality, on-brand experiences for website visitors. CommVersion configured and managed SmartChat, providing a ‘done-for-you’ solution. SmartChat identified, engaged, qualified, and converted high-value prospects who were previously likely to abandon the website without enquiring.
