  • 🔄 “What’s your name and account number… again?” Nothing frustrates customers more than repeating the same information across channels — especially after they’ve been listening to monotonous hold music.  Repeating the details of a case is not just annoying for your customers — it’s a signal your systems (and teams) aren't talking to each other. In today's world, context is everything: If your chatbot collects information from a customer, the human agent should see it immediately. Every interaction should feel seamless, not like starting over. As Kishan Chetan, EVP and GM of Salesforce Service Cloud, highlights in the newest episode of Experts of Experience, AI agents can pass full context to human agents so no customer ever hears, “Can you repeat that?” again. 💡 Here’s how you can create a seamless experience for your customers: Audit your handoff process between AI and human agents. Ensure your AI collects and transfers context effectively. Train agents to acknowledge previous interactions for a frictionless experience. Customer experience isn’t just about solving problems — it’s about making the journey feel effortless. 🎧 Listen to Kishan’s episode of Experts of Experience to learn how seamless handoffs create truly delightful customer experiences. 

  • Your customers will feel it if your internal teams aren’t aligned. Better CX starts with better cross department communication. Louis Giagrande’s take: “Priotizing customer experience means breaking down walls between groups within a company.” What’s a internal disconnect you’ve seen trickle down to the customer?👇 — Thanks Louis, LG Electronics, Lauren Wood, and Salesforce for another great episode!
