“Conversational AI is the new frontier in customer service but creating frictionless experiences with a machine is not an easy task,” said Tiffany Anderson, Director of CX Process & Initiatives at Purchasing Power. “We knew we needed experts in this area, which is why we partnered with SmartAction. Not only did we drive significant cost savings by automating one quarter of our call volume, but we also saw a dramatic rise in our Net Promoter Score, which won the recognition of Frost & Sullivan with their top honor for “Excellence in Self-Service” at the 15th Annual Customer Contact Awards.”
“Not only do we get best-of-breed conversational AI technology over voice and chat that saved us more than $1 million in our first-year, but we also have a partner who handles everything from design to build to ongoing operation. Our customers love our advanced self-service capabilities, and we couldn’t be happier with the partnership,” said Aarde Cosseboom, Director of GMS Technology at TechStyle Fashion Group.
