Social Instant Messaging: much more than simple Customer Care

Social Instant Messaging: molto di più di una semplice Customer Care

What is the fastest way you know to get a message across?

The answer that will immediately come to mind will be WhatsApp, Messenger, Telegram or Instagram. That is to say, all the instant messaging apps.

In these applications the response time is around a handful of seconds and they are among the most loved and widespread communication methods.

The main reason? They respond perfectly to the need for the instantaneity of mobile.

With instant messaging a highly valuable one-to-one conversation is activated, which increases the positive perception of the brand

How to reach customers with Social instant messaging

Once the messaging platform closest to the company’s objectives has been chosen, you have to think about the right strategy. In fact, not all instant messaging apps respond in the same way and you need to adapt your business model, creating a winning strategy that makes it possible to intercept customers where they are, in the places they frequent and in the channels they prefer precisely because they are more convenient and quick to use.

By using instant messaging channels a company can offer real-time assistance

The negative aspect of managing social instant messaging is that, to provide an optimal service, you will have to allocate a dedicated resource to monitor, check and respond instantly to your customers’ messages. If you fail to respond in real time to the requests, the consequence will be a sort of boomerang that will lead to the loss of the customer and to the reduction of Customer Satisfaction.

How to manage Social Customer Care

Social instant messaging

Customer Service is the backbone of your company and, as we have already mentioned previously, the support service needs particular attention from the operators dedicated to managing the various requests coming from multiple platforms.

The moment the customer sends a request through a social app, they expect an immediate resolution of their problem.

The solution is to form a team of dedicated people or to outsource the service to a company specialised in the sector.
