In many ways, how we do business today is a model of efficiency and convenience – people come to our websites and we sell to them. That interaction is increasingly being conducted over live chat , and at Intercom, we strive to make those interactions as personal as possible. As this mode of business has evolved, however, there are two unavoidable facts that we sometimes prefer to ignore.

We got a lot of feedback on last week’s blog , both in private and in public (see this thread on LinkedIn, for example). Contemplating the eventual fate of humans in the customer service process leads to some spicy conversations. This is a) partly because terminology around AI is problematic; b) partly because objective data is sparse; c) partly because the loudest voices have, well, let’s say motivated reasoning ; and d) partly because there are multiple overlapping questions.

For a long time, many companies had only one way to capture visitors to their website: contact forms. Lengthy lead forms became the lifeblood of modern customer acquisition. But more and more businesses are starting to ask, why do we make people fill out forms just to talk to us? Why aren’t we trying to connect and speak with them when we have their attention?

As engineers, one of the fundamental things we have to learn is the extent to which we can break things – how do we get the right balance between shipping safely and shipping fast? Before I joined Intercom, I thought of shipping as somebody’s else concern – I built things, but other people shipped them. It was a slow process, requiring a full team merging branches and deploying to production.

How often should you collect customer feedback? This question is raised more and more often, especially now, in the “era of customer feedback”. In practice, many corporations survey all their customer base 1-4 times a year, bring the results to top management and then forget about it for the next 3-12 months till the next survey. They do this for many reasons, which are often very valid: they don’t want to trouble their customers too often, they need an annual customer metric to follow and utili

When I need to reach out to a company, chat is almost always my preferred contact method. It’s usually quick, and I can be doing other things, like replying to email or making a quick call, while I chat. Your customers like the ease of chat, too. But it’s not enough for the chat to be convenient and fast. You need to be creating rapport in conversation and speaking your brand voice.

According to the Cambridge Dictionary, the word “friction” has two definitions: The force that works against an object as it slides along the surface of another object or moves through a liquid or gas; or. A disagreement or dislike caused by people having different opinions.
