Make social media a hub for your brand and your base

The popular social media sites might vary, but this doesn’t: brands must meet customers where they are. And digital channels, like social media, are growing fastest. A recent Sprout Social study found that 91% of people believe in social media’s power to connect people. And 64% of consumers want brands to connect with them.

This makes social networking sites a powerful hub for conversations with your prospects and customers. By providing excellent customer service on these highly visible channels, you can boost your brand reputation. Make it easy with contact centre software that integrates social media right alongside the other channels your team uses for customer support every day.

Make good customer service great on social media

Increase response rates

Make it easy to say “problem solved.” Bringing social media tools right into your contact center software helps you slash social response times for higher customer satisfaction.

Increase revenue

Responding to social questions or comments with information about your products or services is a great way to maximise your online sales.

Improve brand perception

A good social media presence makes your brand feel approachable and accessible. Boost your reputation by showing up.

Take your customer service skills where your customers are

Many contact centres scrambled to keep up as consumers adopted new social media platforms. They turned to separate point solutions, ``bolted on`` or cobbled together. This accidental omnichannel approach created complicated systems that are clumsy to use and expensive to manage.

Instead, make it easy to showcase your customer service skills wherever your customers are. Go beyond simple monitoring on social media channels. With contact centre software by Genesys, you can maximise your social media presence.

Fully integrated social media interactions

To deliver seamless experiences across all channels, you need to capture all customer interactions in one place — social media included.

Genesys contact centre software brings your social conversations into the same single system and interface you use to handle calls and chats. The unified approach helps you understand customer conversations better and respond faster. Your team has all the context it needs to provide customer service that gets your brand noticed on social media — for the right reasons.

Seamless social routing

Great social interactions start with getting social media posts and direct messages where they need to go. That may be a shared queue or a specific agent.

Genesys software uses the same ACD routing engine and evaluation methods for social messages as it does for phone calls and live chats. Use skills-based routing to consider skills and language requirements and then route interactions based on business rules, priority and resource availability.

Optimize staffing to drive better customer experience

Unified communication and collaboration across teams

Speed is an important part of customer service on social media. Your goal is to cordially respond as quickly as possible so customers feel heard and get their problem solved. At many companies, this requires seamless handoffs to your customer service representatives from your social media marketing team.

Genesys contact centre software provides collaboration tools for your employees to work closely with each other. Whether they need to transfer an interaction or ask a quick question, the right tools make social experiences effortless for customers and employees.

Social media performance insights

This unified approach to social media in your contact centre gives you clearer insights. With centralised reporting, you can see historical and real-time performance for your social media interactions, right alongside other communication channels. Spot trends, identify issues and evaluate performance to keep improving your customer experience, backed by data.
