The best conversation that you can have with a customer is one in which they don’t walk away without answers. That might sound obvious, but the path to arriving there requires you to know exactly how to balance bots and humans — and how to transition seamlessly between them. It sounds like a tall order … because it is.
Our guest on The Customer Experience Podcast, Ali Biggs, focuses on building conversational relationships, humanizing the brand, and leveraging data.
To navigate the nuance of how to create conversational relationships in a business context, it’s going to take using all the data at your disposal to work efficiently for the customer’s benefit. For example, a customer should never have to repeat information for a human that they already told a bot.
Ali is Senior Director of Product Marketing at Intercom, a conversational relationship platform (CRP). She believes that the best way to build a relationship is to be constantly in communication with your customers.
Her role in product marketing allows her to interact with the entire organization – product, marketing, sales, customer success, and beyond — to understand exactly what prospects and customers want and need.
Ali also talked with me about…
• What customer experience (CX) encompasses
• How to utilize bots to converse at volume
• How to manage the handoff from bot to human
• Where to position product marketing for greatest effect
• What internal and external communication looks like for product marketers
