MULTI-CHANNEL CUSTOMER SERVICE AND GEARLAUNCH

January 6, 2023

Great customer service is key to success for any business, but especially for e-commerce. With more ways to contact a company than ever before, customers expect to be able to reach out on multiple platforms. Up to 35% of customers say they’ll switch companies for a better customer service experience.

Why is Multi-Channel Customer Service Important?

Offering your customers a variety of platforms for contacting you means you’ll have to meet them where they are. Some of your customers will prefer email, while others may prefer a phone call. They expect quick, convenient support. Often, this is the difference between losing a customer or creating a brand customers will rave about.

Here are a few other important customer service statistics to consider:

  • 42% of customers will spend more following a positive experience
  • 51% recommend a company they enjoyed doing business with to friends and family
  • 59% have a more favorable opinion of a business after a brand responds to a question or complaint on social media

Understanding the importance of good customer service is one thing and providing it is entirely different. One of the benefits GearLaunch sellers have is that they don’t have to worry about customer service.
