How to Reduce Call Volumes and Improve Customer Satisfaction

The Problem

“Can you read minds?”
Ask most call center professionals and the answer is, “Sort of.”

Call center employees are asked the same questions day-after-day, and call-after-call. So much so, that you wonder, “Well, why can’t a well-designed website FAQ solve the problem?”

FAQs certainly help, but problems remain:

A. It’s not personalized: FAQs do not help that customer understand their unique data. Nor can they give truly personalized advice & assistance.

B. It’s not digestible: Few people enjoy reading big blocks of explainer text.

So, how do you solve the problem?

Digestibility: Simply put, don’t ask people to read a lot. This is where video comes into play. Show, don’t tell.
Visual metaphors: Humans are visual learners. A picture truly is worth a thousand words. Well designed visual metaphors communicate ideas in seconds that words fail to communicate in hours.
Personalization: Video can no longer be one-size-fits-all. Users don’t want abstract data- they want to understand their data, and more importantly, how it impacts them.
Interactivity: We don’t need to guess what our customers want when we can just ask them. Interactive video lets users pick what they want to learn about. Gamifying the experience makes it fun and puts customers in control (and who doesn’t like control?)

Putting it all together:

How do we do it?

Idomoo is the pioneer and industry leader in data-driven Personalized Video. Each user watches a Personalized Video that is uniquely populated with their own data. It’s not a video, it’s their video.

Their name, dates, policies, numbers, services, etc. are tailor-made for each individual viewer.
Each person sees only the scenes that are relevant – and nothing else.

Interactivity takes it to the next level. When data isn’t available, we ask the users what they want.

It’s like an interactive “video call center” with all of the personalized data and none of the wait time.

Results:

89% of viewers rank their Personalized Video positively*
24% increase in advice ranking amongst those that watched a Personalized Video*

How Video Is Driving Customer Communications

Marketers have been turning to video for years to overcome the challenges of text communications. Video is more memorable, shareable and engaging — and people love it. It accounts for the vast majority (over 80%) of all consumer internet traffic. But video technology is changing. Previously, brands used video mainly to communicate big messages. Think of splashy branding campaigns or ad spots to raise awareness. Because video was expensive and often hard to produce and update, it rarely found its way into day-to-day customer communications. Not so anymore. Video doesn’t have to be generic for a broad audience. It can be timely, interactive and deeply relevant for current and prospective customers. One of video’s greatest strengths is its ability to convey tone, body language and emotion, making customers feel truly connected to your brand. This makes it a powerful tool for building meaningful relationships and delivering exceptional customer service. By

How To Create Personalized Content (Without Making It Creepy)

Brands today face a complex challenge when it comes to personalization. On one hand, customers have grown more and more concerned over how businesses are using their information, stressing the importance of data security and privacy protections. On the other hand, they’re also demanding tailored experiences that cater to their individual needs and preferences. It’s confusing and contradictory — but also not surprising if you consider our history. Cinema offers a great metaphor for this. Alfred Hitchcock’s “Rear Window” opens with the raising of a curtain. This is a tribute to classic theater — a raising curtain has been shorthand for “the show is about to begin” for centuries. However, something is a little different here. These are not traditional theater curtains, but rather a window curtain. This, of course, raises the question: What kind of show would be watched through a window? A voyeuristic one. The Dual Nature of
