If there's one thing that the pandemic taught us it's that people like interaction with other people. Those that were forced into lockdown and quarantine situations who weren't able to work from home and actually communicate with people on the outside world on a regular basis, struggled because they missed that one element that really keeps us sane and that's human interaction

The same can be said about the customer experience and using chatbots and other automations when it comes to customer support. You cannot give your customers an exceptional experience by throwing chatbots and artificial intelligence at them to replace a live person when they have a serious or more complex issue. They want that human touch to feel reassurance…

Sure, they seemed like a great idea in the beginning as a way to streamline the customer experience and cut costs

...but was it really just a wolf in sheep’s clothing ?

And we're seeing now how chatbots are on a steady decline  yet there are a lot of companies that are still holding on to them- trying desperately to make them work

If you're using chatbots as the main foundation for your customer support or thinking about it- you wanna listen to this episode because it might not be the chat bot itself- but what the chat bot represents that could end up driving your customers away
