Chatbot can be defined as AI-based computer program that can talk to people and be inactive communication. They are also called as virtual assistants that understand human capabilities. According to recent data, chatbots are important for the brands to survive for the future. The main objective of the research is to find out how chatbots can contribute to business marketing strategies and how businesses should develop it so they can be used for communication with customers. The chatbot named Beauty gifter, created in 2017 by L'Oréal Paris, is selected as a case study.
