Chatbots vs. live chat – here’s what you should know
Most businesses are using some or the other form of communication methods to improve their customer service. After live chat the adoption of chatbots is on the rise.
Business 2 Community contributor Jared Cornell has shared some useful facts on using chatbots or live chat for the customer service.
Cornell says, “There’s a reason why people say “the first impression is the last impression.” Some 51% of customers never approach a business again after one bad experience. That puts pressure on every interaction—and every missed opportunity—with potential customers, recent purchasers, and long-time users.
Web chat is often the first impression for customer service interactions. While chat services initially connected consumers with real customer service staff, chatbots have become increasingly common—for obvious reasons and with obvious limitations.
Ultimately, no platform guarantees an improved customer experience. Consumers care most about solving their problems. Whether they do it with a person or a chatbot is secondary”.
