The need
As a global company renowned for its superior customer service, Light My Bricks had specific customer support needs to uphold their esteemed reputation and meet the diverse needs of their worldwide customers.
1. Meet staffing challenges
After the company’s internal support agent left, Light My Bricks sought a consistent solution from a trusted partner who could handle customer service and free up time to focus on core business.
2. Management, training, and reporting
Prioritizing high-quality service, Light My Bricks needed a customer support solution that included management, training, and reporting for constant improvement and efficient operations.
3. Support the release of new products
To ensure the seamless launch of new products, Light My Bricks needed a team of support experts who stayed informed on all the latest sets and how to support customers who had questions about new products.
4. Agents who live the brand’s “always go above and beyond” ethos
Light My Bricks has loyal customers all over the world. They needed a support partner who prioritized positive customer experiences with a strong focus on high customer satisfaction scores (CSAT).
5. Prompt response time and coverage
For Light My Bricks, part of an excellent customer experience involves quick responses and transparency by keeping customers informed about the support process at all times.
6. Enhancing CX through knowledge and personalization
Light My Bricks needed their support team to have thorough product knowledge, be capable of providing personalized and accurate recommendations, and upsell or cross-sell to enhance the customer experience.
In 2021, Light My Bricks came to Influx for help.
Partnering with Influx has been a wonderful experience. Influx’s team consistently delivers exceptional service and the positive feedback from our customers speaks volumes about their dedication to excellence. We couldn’t be happier with the impact Influx has had on our customer service.
