Case Study Background:

For a major home security client, April 2022 was shaping up to be a dangerous month. This security leader’s traditional BPO partners were struggling to deliver the needed live agent capacity which meant customers were likely to be abandoned and revenue opportunities missed.

Ninety percent of all Americans say that customer service is a key factor in their decision to do business with a company, meaning this impending CX struggle could have a long-term impact on customer growth.

    Challenge

    Thirty-three percent of all customers say they’ll go to a competitor after just one poor experience with customer care, making being there for your customers essential in today’s fiercely competitive landscape. Adding to this pressure, the labor shortage makes meeting CX goals even more difficult. Because the BPOs were unable to meet their agent staffing commitments, this home security giant was left with insufficient capacity to meet their CX goals in April 2022.
