This is what we did at Hiperestrategia:
We chose the News category to be able to send relevant information about the country wise email marketing database Marketing and Innovation industry to our chatbot subscribers.
In the details section we place:
“The Hiperestrategia chatbot will send weekly alerts about important news in the Marketing, Business, Innovation and Technology industry, and will also send notifications about relevant articles published on our blog.”

FAQs:
Do the likers on my fan page instantly become subscribers of my chatbot?
NO.
A liker is a person who has indicated that they like your Facebook page, a subscriber in chatbot terms is a person who has started a conversation with your business through Messenger.
A liker can be a subscriber, but not all of your subscribers can be likers.
How were subscription message sending permissions previously managed?
If you had a chatbot connected to your fan page through a platform such as: Chatfuel, ManyChat, MobileMonkey, Botsify or another, I inform you that these platforms were in charge of managing these permissions automatically.
Admins will now need to request it at the page level by December 31st.
