CURRENT STATE

The retail industry has undergone major disruptions in recent years, with the pandemic accelerating the shift to ecommerce and forcing retailers to experiment with new digital services. This digital shift has resulted in a drive to improve the customer service experience in a bid to unlock revenue opportunities, improve efficiency and increase customer loyalty.

As the industry emerges from the pandemic, retailers are faced with new pressures from growing inflation, economic uncertainty, and unpredictable changes to consumer behaviour. In this challenging environment, making the most of each customer interaction is crucial for maintaining competitive advantage.

INDUSTRY CHALLENGES

The pathway to providing a remarkable Digital Customer Experience in the Retail world has been a challenging one, with a few quick reasons highlighted:

  • Inconsistent Omni-Channel Experience
  • Lack of self-service powered by Automation and AI
  • Limited analytics capability resulting in lack of actionable reporting and insights
  • Manual, complex, and inefficient processes further impacting productivity
  • Prioritisation of investments opportunities due to limited budgets
  • Audit of Customer Experience in Technology implementation

At Retail Reply, we have the experience and expertise to address these challenges and enhance your customer experience operations to maintain your competitive advantage.

Customer Care Transformation

A Two-Phased approach to utilising customer interactions as voice of customer and delivering on their expectations.

Customer Intent Harmonisation: Customer Intents are classified as a standardised versions of customer contact reasons for engaging with the business, following these steps:

  • Customer Journey Design & Mapping
  • Gathering Customer Interactions across different Customer Touchpoints
  • Using Retail Reply Customer Intent framework to map interactions to journeys
  • Measuring similar intents across Channels

Retail Reply specialises in converting customer interactions into harmonised groups of customer intents to seek service support and then regressing it through different customer touchpoints to assess the best channel for the intent thus helping our clients to deliver a seamless Omni-Channel experience.

Value Analysis & Intent Steering: The next step after Customer Intent Harmonisation is the Value Analysis & Intent Steering. The VI model used, emphasises on the strategy to achieve optimal value for both customers and business. The model helps classify Customer intents into:

  • Simplify (Minimal changes to Customer Journeys and Maximum Value to Business)
  • Eliminate (Intents that do not add Value to both Business & Customers)
  • Digitise (Maximum Value to Customers to self-serve and Minimum impact on Business)
  • Leverage (Channelising high-value journeys to expert human channel, providing maximum value to both customer & business)

At Retail Reply we emphasise on the fact that any change, implementation, or innovation should add Value to both business and the end Customer, using this well proven model we try and help our clients to identify, manual complex and inefficient processes and provide the best automation and AI driven solutions to increase productivity and better ROI on their technology implementations.
