How leaders of customer services succeed
Organizations that want to rebalance their digital and traditional customer service
channels should look to:
• Put the human and physical elements back into customer services: Rethink your investment
strategy. The focus should be on delivering satisfying customer experiences – not methods of interaction.
Ensure your channel management approach delivers integrated experiences.
• Make it easy for customers to switch channels to get the experiences they want: Build
customer service channels that enable consumers to fluidly move from digital to human interaction to get the
outcomes they desire.
• Root out toxicity: Define and address the most toxic customer experiences across all channels. These
experiences can directly impact profitability. Identify the experiences that have the greatest potential
downside and leverage those insights to guide an investment strategy.
