#10 – It’s all in the Customer Service

Consumers do expect Customer Service Online as well as Offline, so if your live chat is always unavailable, and the links are broken then a customer’s first impression can be associated with your brand. Impressions last especially when you’re trying to provide good customer service.

It is recommended for you to be known as a modern, responsive and friendly when providing customer service. A live chat is a really simple way of doing this because there is a personal connection between the consumer and your company, and you can also provide information instantly. If you’re constantly offline, then this can convey a representation that you’re not bothered to help.

Another option for Live Chat is to use Artificial Intelligent Chatbots/ Interactive Agents. This is a good way for customers to find what they want efficiently and 24 hours a day. Interactive Agents isn’t just for SEO in your website. Chat Apps have grown majorly in social media; this has led to businesses to have Chatbots on chat apps like Facebook messenger. This allows the user to get information 24/7 when people aren’t available to give an answer.

Facebook is actively encouraging businesses to create Chatbots for Messenger; meaning you’ve got a huge opportunity to bring you content, products and services directly to users on any platform.
