According
to Accenture, 45% of customers are willing to pay more for better
customer service. Furthermore, recent ICMI research affirms that more
than half of contact center leaders believe customer experience is now
the single greatest competitive differentiator businesses can leverage.
Customer support is increasing in importance while continuing to grow
in complexity. How will this impact your career as a contact center
leader? Is your team ready for what’s next?
In January,
ICMI asked industry experts to weigh in with their bold
predictions
for the year ahead. What trends did they believe will shape life in the
contact center? The experience economy, the uptick of chatbots, and a
heightened focus on employee engagement were three of the top-rated
trends.
As Sarah Reed, Editor of Relate by
Zendesk, puts it, “brands will stop looking at their closest competitor
for what's next, what's important, and what's relevant. Instead,
they'll look to the companies driving innovation and customer
experience. Customers have expectations and they will transfer to you.”
It’s true. One great customer experience raises the bar for every other
business a customer interacts with, and as brands like Amazon continue
to innovate and technology continues to evolve, expectations will only
rise in 2018.
The future is now and ICMI can help you prepare.
ICMI Contact Center Demo
will empower you with the knowledge, tools, and resources to achieve
and exceed today's expectations, as well as the future expectations of
your contact center.
