The Content

The evolving customer support landscape is rapidly changing; customers expect more convenient, personalised and empathetic experiences from the companies they interact with. And in order to thrive, businesses need to embrace that change and close the gap between what our customers expect from us and our ability to meet those expectations. So, how do we close that gap and empower our teams to efficiently and personally support our customers

 
Join us for a beautiful three-course lunch where we’ll hear from James Bartlett, GM of Support and Operations at Winning Appliances about their journey to digitising their customer support strategy to better meet their customers’ expectations; an approach that increased CSAT by 20%, boosted conversion and revenue while increasing efficiency, and equipped them for change in a turbulent landscape.
 
We’ll then move into a group discussion to delve into the topic in more detail, creating an invaluable opportunity to share the real-life challenges you’re facing as CX leaders in these ever-changing times. We’ll explore:
 

– How can we elevate our support strategy to better meet the needs and expectations of our customers?
– What can we do to deliver more contextual and empathetic support for our customers?
– How can we operate with more agility, leveraging seamless, automated workflows to supercharge our team’s capability and increase efficiency?
– Empowering our teams to work cross-functionally across the business in order to provide a holistic, relevant and personalised experience for our customers
– The importance of supporting wellbeing for our employees in our drive to better serve our customers
