Why You Should Use Call Tracking for Your Conversion Optimization Strategy

April 6, 2020 by Polly Leave a Comment

1. Use call tracking

Not all of your conversions are non-calls. In other words, you get online purchases if you’re an e-commerce store, but you also get phone-in orders, right?

A lot of the customers do in fact call. And so if you’re not tracking your calls, you don’t truly understand how you’re receiving those calls and therefore, you can’t increase your efforts in those areas to generate more calls.

For example, we generate thousands of leads a month here and about 40 per cent are calls, in many cases. On the low months, it’s 20 per cent. [Read more…] about Why You Should Use Call Tracking for Your Conversion Optimization Strategy

How AI Could Boost Business Customer Service

July 5, 2019 by Liv

From forecasts to spam filters, artificial intelligence has long been used to help companies across industries. Within recent years, it’s begun to play a key role in a major business area: customer service. 

Though it’s widely seen as a human-led sector, this form of tech could simplify a number of B2C tasks, likely boosting overall client experience as a result. In turn, this may very well improve brand reputation as well as profit turnover.

Let’s explore the main ways in which AI stands to enhance customer service within a business. [Read more…] about How AI Could Boost Business Customer Service
