This week, we’re tackling the fun world of live chat. Customers opt for live chat over other choices. 42% used the company’s live chat tool over other channels. Email support came in a distant second at 23%, a 19 point difference.
Live chat is the closest most people will get to instant communication with most teams. It’s a happy middle ground between email and phone support. Turns out customers are okay with that middle ground.
