Hi there!

First of all thank you for trying to solve my question.

I´m new using this library and I was wondering which is the best way of letting the bot start the conversation. Just from rasa shell, it wouldn´t be integrated in any external platform.

Example:

```
Bot: Hello, I´m here to solve you any question.
Bot: Ask me anything you want to know.
...and now the "actual conversation" starts.

```

Thank you in advance!
