The Challenge

Overwhelmed Customer Support

A major retail chain with over 500 stores nationwide and a growing e-commerce presence was facing significant challenges with their customer support operations:

  • Long wait times - Customers were waiting an average of 15 minutes for support
  • High support costs - Scaling the support team to meet demand was becoming prohibitively expensive
  • Inconsistent responses - Different agents provided varying answers to similar questions
  • Limited availability - Support was only available during business hours, not meeting 24/7 customer expectations

These challenges were leading to customer frustration, negative reviews, and lost sales opportunities. The company needed a solution that could provide immediate, consistent support while controlling costs.
