How we serve the Retail Industry

Connect the customer journey – Give them a personalised experience which will earn you loyal and repeat customers.

As retail customers make a dash to digital, channels like social media, web chat and chatbots have never been more important – but for many, the retail Contact Centre isn’t evolving fast enough and customer expectations aren’t being met. Why? Siloed and unintegrated digital channels. All frustrations IPI can mitigate.

How we can help you to optimise your retail Contact Centre

Retail organisations across the UK look to us to implement personalised, omnichannel strategies while overcoming the challenges of disparate IT systems and out-of-date processes.

Evolving customer expectations

With 42% of customer interactions now spread across social media, web chat and chatbot, 65% of consumers feel that digital experiences do not exceed expectations and retailers are being forced to innovate quickly to stay ahead. We work with retailers across the UK to meet and go beyond these ever-changing expectations.

““Our experience with IPI has continued to be a positive one. The implementation of Genesys Cloud has brought an air of excitement to our contact centre teams, delivering new features and functionality to ease day-to-day roles. Commercially, the transition has been a huge success, driving savings and enabling flexibility through our move to the cloud. Finally, and most importantly, our customers have continued to experience””

““Under normal circumstances, IPI and Genesys’ speed of delivery would be impressive, but bear in mind that at the time of the system’s migration our teams were dealing with a surge in enquiries across the business – via phone, email and social media. During these unprecedented times, our new cloud-based system from Genesys has enabled us to carry on helping our customers when they need it most. Without IPI and Genesys’ exceptional support, continuing business as ‘normal’ would have been near-impossible, let alone carrying out our additional outreach activities to help vulnerable members of our local communities.””

We look forward to working in partnership with them in the years ahead.””
