RightNow Customer Insight #1
How to Socialise the Executive Team
Start by monitoring and capturing
conversations
Drive awareness of the
conversations
Most executive teams will respond
“Hey – we want to have a voice!”
Show the angry customer, the
discussion, and the resolution
resulting in a happy customer
“You don’t mind if someone is out
there saying bad things about your
brand – especially if you can
change their mind. But if you just
leave it out there it’s a problem.”
![Page 17: CSN11-Neil Srinivasan-Rightnow](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052509/55a888db1a28abd1288b46aa/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
RightNow Customer Insight #2
Convert Detractors
What has changed:
Your phone interactions are no
longer private
The actions of one agent can cause
a PR firestorm
How to respond?
Monitor social media
Embrace the detractor
Be genuine - admit if a mistake was
made
![Page 18: CSN11-Neil Srinivasan-Rightnow](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052509/55a888db1a28abd1288b46aa/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
RightNow Customer Insight #3
Give Customers a Home

RightNow Customer Insight #4Operationalising Social Across Departments
Dedicated social media team in the contact centre, aside from marketing team
Routed interactions within the team by skills / product expertise
Ensured that every support question on Facebook and Twitter was handled
“It’s easier to teach a call center person how to moderate than to teach a moderator how to learn about a product.”
Built social media into the core call centre infrastructure
Didn‘t want social to be an ‗add-on‘ but rather built into the heart of the business
Anybody who is a customer service agent should go beyond just running a script and be able to engage with customers
By using social media for customer service, it allows for us to use insight back into the business and improve
![Page 20: CSN11-Neil Srinivasan-Rightnow](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052509/55a888db1a28abd1288b46aa/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

—like phone, email or chat— except
that it is owned and operated by
customers.

Organisations are challenged to
Operationalise Social Engagement

Current State: Early Adoption
• Social Media ―Bolted On‖ as a Disparate Process
• Separate business processes, staffing, costs
• No unified view of the customer (Disparate Knowledge)
Poor or no integrated business processes
![Page 28: CSN11-Neil Srinivasan-Rightnow](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052509/55a888db1a28abd1288b46aa/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Mature State: Operationalized Social
Social Tied Into a Unified Platform
Integrated Contact Record
Common Knowledge Foundation
Central Management of All Customer Channels
Support Workflow & Escalation
Multi-Channel Consumer Feedback
Reporting & Analytics

Case Study
Navy Federal Credit Union
$41.5 billion in assets, 3.5 million customers, 200 branches
RightNow's Cloud Monitor to scan social sites like Twitter, YouTube, and others to track what is being said about them in the social space.
Tracks over 1,700 posts per week that mention NFCU
A seven-member team narrows those posts down to relevant mentions
Average of 10% turned into actual incidents that are worked by social-skilled customer service agents.

In Summary:
Leading organisations are ―socializing‖ their customer
experience
Social media engagement spans Marketing and
Customer Service – each organisation will find their
own way to coordinate
When engaging 1:1 in social media, treat interactions
just as you would with any communication medium
Start by listening
