The overarching benefit to deploying Social Business solutions in customer service operations is the ability to engage with customers and understand them more deeply. This helps organisations to anticipate and meet their customers’ needs in ways that differentiate them from the competition.
If companies could increase customer retention rates by 5%, they could grow their profits by 25% -100%.
