The future of customer service is rapidly evolving. Customer expectations are growing while patience is dwindling. Contact center costs are growing, and scaling while delivering exceptional experiences is becoming more challenging than ever.

Emerging technologies in CX are committed to resolving this conundrum, and Voice AI is at the frontline. Voice AI is the biggest disrupter to the customer experience, helping brands achieve the unimaginable: increasing revenue from customer loyalty while reducing operational costs.

For the first time ever, Voice AI is joining forces with human agents to improve CX by taking on Tier-1 issues, improving first contact resolution, and freeing up agents for escalations that require an empathic human connection that builds trust with customers.

How are leading commercial brands leveraging Voice AI in their customer journey? How is Voice AI used across industries - insurance versus hospitality, telecoms versus retail? What are the results? What’s the next frontier?

Learn more about this cutting edge technology that is becoming more mainstream than ever in this keynote.

The future of work in customer service is all about how humans work alongside AI to create great customer experiences where customers feel understood and valued. Companies that ‘get it’ understand that AI is not a replacement but rather an enabler for the emotive responses that humans do best--the challenge they face is how to effectively blend AI and human interactions that are empathetic and meaningful for the customer.

-What does AI mean for the contact center

In the rush to adopt newer technologies like AI and machine learning, too many CX professionals are hamstrung by the most important ingredient of customer experience: data. Without high quality, report-ready data as a foundation, initiatives to personalize customer touchpoints and reduce customer effort will fall flat faster than you can say “360 degree view of the customer.” And with the pandemic accelerating the shift to digital channels, you need best-in-class engagement strategies for a digital-first world.

Join Kate Adams, Senior Vice President of Marketing at Validity, and Jeff Foley, Senior Director of Product Marketing at Validity, as they explore the tactics and tools that leading teams are leveraging to deliver exceptional service and eliminate the impact of bad data at each stage of the customer journey.

You’ll learn:

- What the root causes of bad data are, and how it’s impacting your customer experience

- Steps to address and repair bad data at the source, before it cascades through your database

- How to identify and remove friction points within your customer journeys

- Five customer experience plays you can implement today to surprise and delight your customers

Today’s workforce is expected to handle large volumes of interactions across a wide variety of new topics and compliance requirements and customers expect their answers to be immediate, empathetic and accurate.

What consumers expected from the customer experience just ten years ago, no longer holds true. In the past year, big box retailers were forced to become direct-to-consumer brands overnight. Many businesses closed their store fronts and focused on online operations. Subscription services, personalized products and flexible marketplaces are now sought after by modern consumers. And, most importantly, customers no longer see relationships with businesses as transactional — they see brands as an extension of their identity.

Kustomer went out and surveyed over 500 American consumers to understand how their expectations of customer service have changed over the past 18 months, the business impact of poor customer service, and what brands need to succeed. In this webinar you will learn about:

- Modern Customer Service Expectations

- The Changing Role of the Customer Service Organization

- Why Brands Can’t Afford Bad Customer Service

- The Omni-Experience Imperative

- Tools and Strategies to Flourish in 2021
