self service | Shep Hyken | Customer Service Expert

Top Takeaways:

Digital Customer Service is about interactions that take place on-screen or have a component of on-screen enhancements (on-screen automation, on-collaboration, on-screen communication).
Virtually every service experience starts as self-service. When a customer goes into a company’s website or mobile app, they are at the beginning of their digital self-service journey.
In a digital customer service interaction, the customers are already logged in and have already begun their search for answers. If and when a human-to-human interaction is needed, the customer support agent should be able to know who the customer is and what they are looking for.
US companies alone still receive more than one billion incoming phone calls every year.  Many companies claim to be customer-centric yet still expect customers to call them when they need help even in today’s on-screen world.
Whether you are a B2B or a B2C business, your customers have learned what the best digital experience looks like from the most successful companies.

Quotes:

“Customers are now “on-screen” and companies need to meet them on the channels that they are using to enhance the effectiveness, efficiency, and experience of every interaction.” “The focus of Digital Customer Service is finding the right balance between human interaction and virtual interaction (such as automation and AI) depending on what the customer needs.” “The biggest myth about Digital Customer Service is that it doesn’t involve human interaction and that everything is handled by AI or bots.” “The impact of the pandemic is that it made all of us digital natives. We are all always within an arm’s reach away from a screen 24 hours a day. “Customer effort, one of the biggest predictors of loyalty after a service interaction, is formed by one-third of what the customer needs to do and two-thirds of how it feels to them.”
