Suggested Questions

Guide newcomers with ready-to-click prompts that launch a rich conversation.

What it is

A list of sample questions shown on your profile. Visitors tap one and it sends instantly—perfect for users who don’t know where to start.

  • Two columns – Your Questions (private bank) and Visible to Users (public).

  • Drag-and-drop – move prompts between columns or reorder in place.

  • Unlimited drafts – store extras in Your Questions for later testing.

Tip: Use the "Popular Questions" widget from the home page to refine prompts to get the most engagement.

Go to the Suggested Questions section if you're wondering...

  • How do I add a brand‑new prompt to the list of suggested questions?

  • How do I make a question Visible to Users (or turn it back into draft and remove it from my Delphi's page)?

  • How can I reorder visible questions so the best ones show up first?

  • How do I edit or delete an existing question without losing it forever?

Best Practices

Design questions from the user's perspective

Put yourself in the visitor’s shoes and phrase prompts as “I” questions.

  • Start with “How do I…?” or “What’s the best way for me to…?”

  • Reflect real pains. Scan past chats or surveys for common struggles.

  • Keep them concrete. Specific topics beat broad themes (“How do I price my new SaaS?” > “Tell me about business”).

  • Use plain language. Avoid insider jargon that newcomers won’t know.

  • Limit to 5–7 live prompts. Too many choices overwhelm.

Empathy-driven questions reduce friction and spark deeper conversations

Review and refresh questions regularly

Your visitor patterns shift—keep your prompts in sync.

  • Check chat analytics weekly. Note which questions get clicked most by using the "Popular Questions" widget.

  • Retire low performers. Drag them back to Your Questions for future testing.

  • Promote rising stars. Move high-engagement prompts higher in the list.

  • Experiment often. Swap in two new questions each month and track results.

  • Document changes. Keep a simple log so you know what works over time.

Iterating on prompts shows users you’re listening and evolving.
