business with that brand as a result.

 

Providing Customer Service is already a given across channels, via phone, email, live and asynchronous messaging, and social media—as well as in-store and via physical mail.

They’ve recognized that in today’s digital-first paradigm, customer service is often the first and
primary point of contact between customers and brands.

Traditionally, contact centers were viewed as little more than a necessary cost of doing business. Still, today, reducing costs remains the second-highest strategic priority for the contact center leaders. 

In recent years, the emerging competitive importance of Customer Experience,  combined with the hastening march toward digital-first business and commerce models,  has caused service leaders to rethink the goals they serve and the roles their organizations perform. 

Experience-focused leaders are shifting their orientations from an emphasis on reducing costs toward the goal of generating business and customer value.
