SMBs are in a great position to leverage their smaller size when adopting new tools and processes that support their scaling operations. That includes folding AI and automation strategically into the business, building powerful knowledge management and self-service engines, and supporting agents with support tools that enable them to provide human, front-line service for the thorniest issues.
“SMBs want to create an immersive experience in which people are not treated as a ticket, but engaged with as highly valued customers through personalized and conversational experiences,” says Kristen Durham, SVP of SMB and Startups at Zendesk.
While 76 percent of SMB leaders believe that providing excellent customer service during an economic downturn becomes even more important, only 18 percent of those leaders believe their organizations’ CX offering is much better than that of their core competitors, according to the 2023 Zendesk Customer Experience Trends Report.
