A Roadmap to Efficient, Agile and Automated Support
In the evolving landscape of customer service, businesses are seeking revolutionary ways to enhance their customer service operations. Leading this transformation is the concept of AI-powered, connected customer service representatives (reps), enabled by a potent blend of automation, artificial intelligence (AI), and agile technologies.
According to a report by Gartner, adopting a “connected rep” strategy can potentially improve contact center efficiency by up to 30%.
But how do organizations make this shift, and what are the prerequisites for successfully implementing such a strategy?
Contextual Guidance and AI-Powered Customer Service
An essential component of rep enablement technologies is utilizing technology to provide context.
AI-powered platforms, such as OpenQuestions´ Agent Connect, can deliver real-time, relevant insights directly to the rep’s dashboard. This helps reps make informed decisions swiftly and improve the quality of customer service.
Dynamic workflows, like those enabled by AI, provide guidance based on perceived customer intent.
These technologies act as a digital assistant that enhances the effectiveness of customer service operations and reduces costs.
Collaborative Implementation of Connected Reps Strategy
Successful implementation of a connected rep strategy requires a cross-functional approach involving the head of service and support, the employee tools and strategy leader, and the IT team.
The use of Teneo’s Feedback Insight can significantly assist in this collaborative process. This solution allows for the collection of actionable customer feedback that guides the improvement of rep enablement technology.
Mapping the Journey with an Agile Roadmap
A clear roadmap, developed in conjunction with IT, stakeholders, and customer service reps, is crucial for a smooth transition.
Teneo’s Call Insight solution can provide essential data for this roadmap. By analyzing every customer interaction, businesses can identify the critical areas requiring automation, thus improving efficiency and customer satisfaction.
Streamlining Guidance Through Automation
To move away from reliance on institutional knowledge, it is necessary to automate guidance.
Tools like Agent Connect can help identify essential information and automate its delivery, reducing unnecessary noise for the reps.
Continuous feedback on technology usage can further streamline the process, making it more efficient and rep-friendly.
Understanding the Customer Experience
Businesses need a deep understanding of their customer experience to identify gaps in their rep enablement technology.
With Feedback Insight and Call Insight, businesses can gain an understanding of common customer pain points, time to resolve issues, and top customer requests.
This data can then be used to optimize the areas that need to be automated for improved efficiency and satisfaction.
