Agent, often seen as a face of customer service, receives lots of customers every day. They can answer simple inquiries, but fall short when facing complex questions. It’s time to involve other departments for support.
Not All Inquires Can Be Solved by an Agent Independently
Some of the situations, such as “return of goods” or “maintenance”, are impossible to solve by only agents themselves, it requires team efforts. A collaborative effort involving individuals comes together to tackle and resolve more intricate issues, even if there is only one agent for direct contact.
However, it’s hard for agents to manage an internal collaboration manually while contacting customers simultaneously. That’s why a TICKETING system is needed for customer service collaboration.
Build a Collaboration Streamline by Ticketing
When a front-line agent meets a problem that needs to be transferred to other teams, the agent should accomplish several key actions:
- Collect all information about the customer and requirements without omission.
- Transfer the requirement to the right person/team to deal with, while in the right order.
- Handle the completion status for each step in the entire process, and feed it back to the customer timely.
- Responsible for truly solving requirements, and satisfying customers.
It seemed difficult for an agent to hold such actions for only one requirement. Fortunately, a Ticketing System can solve all of those above.
Let’s take a look at an example in an air conditioner maintenance scenario.
When a customer raises a requirement, the agent could create a ticket with an “AC maintenance” tag. Automatically, the Ticketing system will send it to the after-sales department, which is preset by the administrator.
When the repair technician updates the ticket complement status when finishing his work, every relevant person in this task chain will get a system notification. It will also remind the customer of the order.
By using ticketing, agents could release more energy for serving other requirements, and the roles at every step of this workflow will know what they need to do clearly. Above all, the requirement can be solved efficiently, which will result in higher customer satisfaction.
