Deliver Customer Service
in Seconds
14. 1. Track the Right Metrics
• Have unique items so not always possible to resolve an issue on the first call
• Encourage their agents to talk to customers as long and as often as it takes to
make them happy
• Measure satisfaction after each interaction, after cases close, or annually
16. 2. Listen to Customers Throughout Their Journey
• Never closes a case
• Sets reminders to continuously connect
• Give advice along the way on best practices
• Many customers find this more valuable than the actual support
20. 4. Use Self-Service for More Than Case Deflection
• Understand your customer’s intentions
• Make sure you invest in this channel to up-level self-service
• Including ratings on your content means you can continuously improve
and evolve your support
