Studying Customer Service Motivation and Engagement

In 2022, it takes more than just a good product to win customer loyalty. 

Your customer service teams need to always be engaged with the work they do and highly motivated to think outside the box when servicing customers at the frontline. 

After all, studies have found that customers are more interested in having business with the agents that truly care about the brand they represent. 

But what does it mean for companies with customer service teams? How can they keep up?

We spent this month figuring that out. 

Motivated agents are always an asset to the company — they are ready to go above and beyond to give your customers a great experience with the brand.

So we decided to look into that motivation and things you can do to encourage your team to excel.

Customer service needs to get resourceful, more than it already is. 

Having a team of agents is a good thing, but unless you show them how to work efficiently, their performance returns will never be as high as they can get.

So we’re going to take time in July to drill into customer service resourcefulness and ways you can crack it.
