Imagine your agents providing stellar customer service to only 75% of your customer base. Yikes! Every contact center manager works hard to ensure agents provide excellent service, and yet, this will be your reality if you don’t create an accessible contact center. That’s right—25 per cent of Americans are people with disabilities.

Rome wasn’t built in a day – and it didn’t fall in one either. Come the 4th and 5th centuries, the leaders neglected the needs of their various peoples, and oftentimes, as in the case of Majorian , they seemed outright surprised at the unpopularity of some measures. Could Majorian have used a 360-degree view of his Roman subjects (read: customers)?

It is tempting to enact severe actions during an economic downturn to save costs. Before you start slashing budgets across the entirety of a business, consider the following. Evaluate ROI, not just costs. When scrutinizing budgets with an eye to savings, look beyond the cost and ask what value each item contributes to the company. In the case of CX programs such as support and moderation, it’s tempting to view these as mere operational costs — easy candidates for reduction.

However, many customers today often feel less than satisfied with this “open-loop system.” They expect that if they take the time to provide personal feedback, the company should take the time to provide personal follow-up.
