Welcome to the MEconomy Featuring Gabe Larsen

Top Takeaways: The Me-conomy is about giving the customer what they want, when they want it, how they want it, with little to no effort. That’s convenience! A perfect omnichannel experience allows a customer to start a support conversation through one channel and finish the same conversation in another without having to repeat information. Kustomer has found that 77% of customers expect their problem to be resolved immediately, placing an emphasis on ‘real-time’ customer service strategies. Personalization has only grown more important throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Customers are used to it, and it’s not going away. Chatbots have an important role to play. The problem with a lot of today’s chatbots is that they’re not able to connect to a CRM system. It’s crucial in today’s world to position your company in a way that ties your CRM to your channels of communication in order to provide great customer service. Incorporating self-service, real-time responses, personalization, and communication channel-of-choice can ultimately lead to a convenient experience for customers.
