A new paradigm has emerged – conversation as platform. The development of AI technology makes it possible. Especially the emergence of ChatGPT has made dialogue as a platform a reality.
It has been proven that the innovation and upgrading of Internet technology have had a huge impact on business customer service. In the past, the single service form of direct contact between online customer service and customers was replaced by an omni-channel customer service system. In the era of e-commerce, the interaction between merchants and customers has become particularly important: on the one hand, sellers analyze customer preferences and consumption trends to deal with customer service issues and maintain good customer relationships; on the other hand, they build communication systems Come and launch marketing campaigns and get more information while promoting your products.
In the domestic e-commerce environment, one-stop service has become quite mature. Domestic platforms attach great importance to interaction with consumers. They not only provide after-sales customer service with real-time communication, but also allow sellers to make pre-sales recommendations based on consumer needs and operate domestic e-commerce equipment. Dedicated customer service personnel have long been a consensus among everyone.
The business value of customer experience is being revalued
Consumers in the Internet age have long been accustomed to the convenience brought by smartphones and applications. They expect to be able to communicate with brands through their preferred messaging channels anytime and anywhere. Forrester research shows that 86% of consumers are willing to pay more for a superior customer experience. And among the top factors driving customer experience, they rank customer service second, behind actual product or service quality.
The field of cross-border e-commerce is quite different. For reasons such as preventing fraudulent orders and protecting buyer privacy, early Amazon sellers only relied on emails to communicate with consumers. As an industry leader, Amazon’s “light on customer service, emphasis on display” style has influenced the business philosophy of cross-border e-commerce for a long time. The infinite potential in customer experience has been covered up and has been silent for a long time.
As cross-border e-commerce competition enters a fierce stage, off-site promotion has become popular. The single customer acquisition channel and sluggish customer interaction of traditional platforms cannot meet the needs of sellers. Cross-border enterprises urgently need a more efficient and convenient service system. , not only can provide high-quality customer experience, but also can shift single customer service to interactive sales links, realizing a closed loop of customer acquisition-customer service-marketing.
