Customer Loyalty
While customer loyalty should always be top-of-mind during any contact center interactions, empowering customers probably isn’t always the end goal. Today’s contact center agents, however, should strive to empower and educate customers to build a strong, loyal relationship. In reality, customers rely heavily on contact centers to keep their personal data safe and secure. Many customers don’t think twice before rattling off protected data (think: social security numbers, addresses, etc.) because they have blind faith in an agent’s ability to protect them from fraud.
This blind faith consumers place in call centers isn’t completely ungrounded, either. Over 87% of IT organizations believe their security is up to par, according to a recent survey. Unfortunately, 71% of those same organizations suffered a breach in security in the past year. It’s now the responsibility of contact center agents themselves to empower their customers to pay attention to security protocols and practices.
