Meeting customer demands through mobile engagement

Challenges

Market demands for meaningful customer experience
Today's customers expect personalized or meaningful experiences. While Cincinnati Bell sought to provide convenience through their mobile app, they needed to prioritize market demands that would encourage mobile engagement and drive the business forward.
Lack of information on current customer interactions
Altafiber had a large quantity of customer data, but they weren't using it to gain insight on current customer interactions. They weren't equipped to address customer pain points or areas of friction in touchpoints along the customer journey.
Lack of CX strategy in mobile application development
They wanted to solve customer pain points through the mobile application, but there wasn't a strategy in place on how to use the app to improve customer experience and eliminate those pain points and areas of friction.

Results

Improved customer relations

By offering a robust application with convenient self-service features and personalized customer service through chat agents, customers experienced fewer obstacles and greater satisfaction. Twelve months of collected data revealed the tangible impact of the app on customer relations and high ratings on both Apple (4.8) and Android (4.65) app stores.

Impact

Customers began to rely more heavily on the app to pay bills, manage their services, and ask basic questions when and where it was convenient for them. Internal resources, especially in the customer service department, were less strained and better able to focus on high priority issues.

A mobile application will only succeed if it provides solutions that customers want and need. Fusion worked with Altafiber to develop an app that increased mobile engagement and improved CX, delivering an impressive ROI in reduced internal resources and increased payments.
