The Reality of The Impatient Customer

The Reality of The Impatient Customer | Latest Social Media News | Scoop.it

Did you know that customers now expect companies to help them within the first five minutes of their calling customer service?


Very interesting article from Jason Falls!

 

“It’s not just the telephone support consumer that indicates impatience is the soup of the day for customers. The most recent data from The Social Habit confirms that those who reach out for support through social channels want that help here and now. One third of American social media users who have tried to contact a company on social media for service or support say they expect a response from a company within 30 minutes.”

In Social Media, the Customer is Always Right – Right Now - Brian Solis

In Social Media, the Customer is Always Right – Right Now - Brian Solis | Latest Social Media News | Scoop.it

Frank Eliason and I have known each other for many years. We’ve shared the stage on many occasions, he’s made an appearance on Revolution, and most importantly, I’m proud to call him a personal friend. Frank has championed the adaption and transformation of customer service during his time at Comcast and at CITI. Never one to shy away from sharing his opinions, he’s certainly bullish on where service needs to be as a function and a philosophy versus where it is today. In fact, he’s gone so far as to call out social media customer service as being a “failure” in its current state.
