Omni Interactions Enhances Retail Customer Support for the Holiday Season
DENVER, COLORADO, UNITED STATES, August 26, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- As the holiday season approaches, retail companies face significant challenges in managing the surge in customer contacts. From long hold times to poor service level agreements (SLAs) and missed sales opportunities, the peak sales season puts immense pressure on contact centers. Omni Interactions, a leader in flexible, scalable customer support solutions is the trusted partner that retail brands rely on to navigate these challenges and deliver exceptional service during the busiest time of the year.
Challenges Retailers Face During Peak Season:

- Service Level Agreement (SLA) Strain: Poor SLAs during peak times can damage brand reputation. Retailers with inadequate support systems can see a 25% drop in customer satisfaction during the holidays.
- Increased Customer Inquiries: From order changes to gift suggestions, the volume and complexity of inquiries rise sharply. Retailers can experience up to a 50% increase in customer service contacts.
- Missed Revenue Opportunities: Ineffective support can result in lower average order values and missed cross-sell/upsell opportunities. Reports show that long hold times can decrease customer satisfaction by 15-20%, leading to a significant impact on ROI.
