When it comes to insurance, ContactEngine knows how to provide a differentiated customer experience – from automated onboarding, to in-life customer care and loss prevention, to helping both customers and agents.
However, automation isn’t always best. Sometimes only a human can give the emotional support required to handle certain steps of the journey. In the initial stages of a notification of loss, a customer’s first point of contact should always be with a human.
The subsequent steps, however, could be automated. ContactEngine seamlessly augments human-to-human conversations, or carries on conversations started by a human agent, with the ability to identify the moments when escalating to an agent would benefit both the customer and the insurer at any point in a conversation.
Where ContactEngine fits in
Nurturing product applications
Purchasing financial products can be a complicated and stressful process depending on product class. Customers therefore often delay their decision, reducing conversion rates from enquiry to purchase. ContactEngine proactive conversations nurture these customers, knowing when automation is best and when human is best - clarifying simple questions through automation or finding a suitable time for a customer to speak with an agent to progress a more complicated application process. The result? Reducing cost per acquisition.
Agent Value-Add
Agent time and empathy is valuable – too valuable to be taken up with simple transactional conversations. Free up your agents to spend more time with customers on true value-add conversations and let ContactEngine proactive conversations replace the rest.
