Traditionally, customer support teams respond to customer queries and issues on social media by monitoring their accounts, acknowledging the customer’s message and addressing their concern. Depending on the issue, the response could involve resolving the problem, providing information, apologizing for a mistake or escalating the issue. It’s important to respond promptly, maintain a professional tone and demonstrate a commitment to resolving the issue.
This process can be more effective, though, through leveraging AI and automatic escalation rules to minimize manual monitoring of accounts and instead automatically surface pressing customer issues toward agent queues.
