Technology buyers should envision their future needs in customer communication and consider scalable and innovative solutions. Multiple communication systems, siloed customer data, and changing legal requirements made it challenging. What is needed is a way to control the flow of data across the organization while quickly delivering data when needed and then using that data to improve internal and external communications immediately.

Whether you are looking to consolidate all communications onto one intelligent communications platform or streamline document generation with a tailor-made solution, it is critical that solutions support tomorrow’s known and unknown challenges.

The answer is Automated Customer Communication

Automated customer communication refers to messages (usually emails) that a company’s communication system automatically sends based on customer characteristics or requests. The main goal of CCM is to use automated communications with customers as frequently as possible.

Automated customer communications also include chatbots on your website and virtual assistants who can answer questions over the phone or via text message.

When sending automated messages, your organization’s systems must be able to send personalized messages on demand. Below are some examples of automated and personalised customer communications.

Promotional messages that customers receive immediately after their first purchase.

Promotional messages (with or without incentives) that customers receive if they do not place orders or purchases from your organization during a certain period of time.

A promotional message that offers a new discount to customers who make multiple purchases within a given time period.

Chatbots and virtual assistants can also be an efficient and effective way to support your customers. However, organisations should proceed with caution when using these automation tools. Customers want an easy way to quickly contact a customer service representative when they can’t get a response.

Still, automation technology has important benefits. Improve customer service by facilitating and speeding up the process of responding to customer requests and questions.
