 2. Consumers Say Yes to Messaging for Customer Service and Support in Survey

HOME


CONSUMERS SAY YES TO MESSAGING FOR CUSTOMER SERVICE AND SUPPORT IN SURVEY

The survey was conducted by YouGov PLC on behalf of eGain. The findings are
based on answers given by 5,950 consumers who had used messaging to resolve a
customer service issue in the last 12 months.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


IS MESSAGING EFFECTIVE? YES!



A whopping 86% across the US and the UK found messaging to be very effective and
somewhat effective for customer service.




ARE YOU MORE SATISFIED WITH MESSAGING THAN OTHER CHANNELS?

Younger consumers have a more positive view of messaging.

 * 37% in the 18-34 age group report are more satisfied with messaging than
   other contact channels versus 23% in the 35-54 age group and only 18% in the
   55+ age group.

When asked about pain points, a promising number have shown satisfaction with
the customer experience over the channel

 * 31% of consumers applicable have not had any issues when messaging a business
   for customer service


TOP 3 HURDLES TO GOOD CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE (CX)


1. “I HAD TO REPEAT INFORMATION I HAD PREVIOUSLY GIVEN TO THE CHATBOT OR ANOTHER
CUSTOMER SERVICE AGENT”

 * 44% of US consumers and 39% of UK consumers found having to repeat
   information the biggest pain point
 * Consumers across the US and the UK hate being the glue in a multichannel
   communication.





2. THE RESPONSES WERE NOT PROMPT

Messaging is an asynchronous channel. Businesses have to find the right amount
of wait time between replies so that convenience doesn’t turn into frustration.


3. THE RESPONSES WERE NOT RELEVANT

This is clearly a result of inadequate knowledge management and indicates either
a siloed approach to implementing customer service messaging or redundant
knowledge management system.
