Constantly connected customers (especially Digital Natives) require constantly connected
Social Customer Service
61
ENERGISE2-0.COM
Social Customer Service
• In a ‘Social Customer’ era, refusing to engage on social channels will be as harmful to brand reputation as ignoring e-mails or telephone calls. Indeed, it will be even more harmful due to the power of the network
• Despite this, there is growing evidence of a major gap between rising customer expectations of service delivery through social channels and the actual customer experience
62

SCS: The Demand
• Inbound customer requests on Twitter have increased by 208% in the last year (Simply Measured) and by 85% on Facebook (Social Bakers)
• 72% of consumers posting a customer service question/complaint on Twitter expect a response within 1 hour (Lithium)
• 32% of social customers expect a response within 30 minutes; 42% expect a response within 60 minutes (Social Habit)
• 57% of consumers think brands’ response times on social media should be the same during weekends/weeknights as they are during business hours (Social Habit)
