Forecast Calls for Omnichannel Customer Engagement as Digital Interactions Flourish


Genesys (News - Alert) (www.genesys.com), the market leader in omnichannel customer experience (CX) and contact center solutions, will host a global webinar on December 9 with an industry analyst that provides a strategic approach on how companies can evolve their contact center technology to meet the unique needs of today's digitally driven consumers.

Digital interactions between contact center agents and consumers will continue to flourish, with more than 50% of customer service interactions in 2016 being digital in nature, according to a recent report by Dimension Data. The fast-growing requirement for companies to engage in digital interactions with customers has far surpassed traditional voice interactions. Today's consumers prefer instant messaging, chat, video interactions and social media over traditional voice interactions, the survey found.

In the webinar, entitled "2016 Trendsin Digital Customer Service: 5 Steps to Help You Get a Head Start," customer experience expert Lisa Abbott, director of product marketing at Genesys, and contact center industry analyst Sheila McGee-Smith will provide insights and a step-by-step approach to help companies implement an omnichannel contact center technology to handle digital as well as voice channels.



"Keeping up with digitally driven consumers will be the greatest challenge in 2016, so contact centers must address digital transformation now," said Sheila McGee-Smith, president and principal analyst at McGee-Smith Analytics.

The webinar will feature insights on:


  • What will be needed to bring the same level of customer experience excellence to both digital and voice consumers
  • How to cultivate, hire and prepare skilled contact center agents to handle the unique demands of digital interactions and digitally driven consumers
  • Why preparing now will produce better business results in the long-run
