The Challenge
Plasticprinters.com, a plastic card printing company, was struggling with the high costs of acquiring new clients and maintaining effective communication with them. Traditional forms of communication like phone and email were proving to be slow and cumbersome. The company was spending its days sending emails and leaving voicemails, which was not only time-consuming but also ineffective in reaching a larger number of clients. The shift in customer communication preferences from phone to email, and now from email to chat, was another challenge that the company had to address.
The Solution
To address the communication challenge and cut down on the costs of acquiring new clients, Plasticprinters.com decided to implement LiveChat. They started with one agent on one site and soon expanded their implementation to five agents across five sites. The company used custom invitations on their website that trigger after 20 seconds, which Johnson, the Marketing Manager at Plasticprinters.com, describes as the most useful feature. This new way of engaging customers allowed Plasticprinters.com to connect with hundreds of additional potential clients each week, significantly raising the number of customer engagements.
