5 Reasons for Scaling Up Your Support Team with Salesforce Support Agents
Have you thought about extending your customer support team but you aren’t sure it is necessary? Here are five reasons to scale up your team with Salesforce customer service agents.
- Unresolved customer complaints: failing to take action and provide a solution to customer issues is a sure way to lose business. If you have a lot of open customer support tickets, adding some customer support specialist Salesforce agents to your team is a good idea.
- Response time is slow: customers today expect a fast response time when they have questions or issues. When it is taking a long time to get back to customers after they have contacted you, adding some Salesforce CRM support agents can help you resolve customer issues faster.
- Tasks in other areas of your business aren’t being completed: when important tasks are being left undone because your in-house staff is too busy handling customer service issues, then you should consider scaling up your support team with additional Salesforce customer care agents.
- Your business is losing customers: a recent study shows that 96% of customers will leave a business due to poor customer service. If you are losing customers to your competitors you should definitely look into adding to your customer support team.
- Your business is growing: as your business grows it only makes sense that your customer service volume will increase. Add additional Salesforce support agents to keep up with your company’s growth.
Building a Remote Team of Salesforce Support Managers: Perks Of This Engagement Model
There are several approaches businesses can take to provide customer support. They can hire in-house staff, use freelancers or use an outsourcing company to build a remote team of Salesforce support managers. Some of the benefits of a remote dedicated customer service team of Salesforce agents include:
- Easily scalable teams: customer service volume isn’t always consistent. It may go up or down depending on the season or some other factor. A remote Salesforce customer support team can easily be scaled up or down depending on your requirements.
- Shorter time to hire: outsourcing/outstaffing firms have large talent pools they can recruit from. It is much easier and faster for them to find qualified Salesforce support agents than when hiring agents locally.
- Experience and technical expertise: when you hire a remote Salesforce customer support representative through an outsourcing firm they will already be experienced working with the Salesforce CRM and familiar with its features and capabilities. No time or money will have to be spent on training.
- Improved response times: with a remote Salesforce support team you can make customer support services available 24/7 so that your clients don’t have to wait for office hours to get the assistance they need. Your team will be able to respond quickly to any customer issues.
- Reduce customer support costs: the remote team model will allow you to reduce expenses. The salary of a remote Salesforce support agent will be less than for a local rep. In addition you will be eliminating associated costs such as recruiting, training, office space, equipment and other related expenses that come with hiring in-house staff.
