The Quickest Way to Engage Customers? Do it in Real Time

Your Customers’ Behavior Has Shifted

Every day, the world is becoming increasingly digital—and so are your customers. For instance, 53% of millennials don’t think store associates have the tools they need to provide great customer service, such as mobile devices for looking up customer profiles and recommending products.

Instead of calling your business to check if a specific product is available, customers check your available products online and when they have questions about your products, they expect instant answers. If they don’t get them, they’ll find another vendor.

This shift in behavior takes the process of customer engagement and service out of your control and into their hands, which can sacrifice purchase decisions.

Old Customer Service Channels Aren’t Cutting It

While customer behavior is shifting, customer satisfaction continues to drop. In 2018, the global benchmark for customer satisfaction was at 82.26%, down 1.5% from 2017. That shows that customers are consistently not receiving instant access to the information they’re looking for.

Typical customer service channels like telephone and email don’t provide that instant access customers clearly want. So, how do you take back control, engage customers, and drive purchase decisions?
