To “Get Started”, you need to configure four (4) basic things such as:

Greeting Message
Welcome Message
Persistent Menu
Default Reply

These are the first messages that will be shown to your audience when they interact with your bot. So, you need to write them in a clear, comprehensive, and customized manner to make your user know what is your Facebook page all about.
