Case Study

68% Faster Response & 15% More Conversions For uBoxes

Client Background

Our client, Uboxes, is a leading provider of direct moving boxes to consumers and businesses in the United States. For many years, they have sold high-quality boxes at a reasonable price and shipped over 100,000 boxes per day.

The Situation – Manual support process with a high response time

The client takes customer service very seriously. They strive to provide the quickest support possible, whether it is to answer customer questions product detail pages (PDP), shipment tracking, or post-sale issues. They provide customer service via phone, live chat, and email. However, their customer support agents and team members face the daily challenge of answering the same customer questions.

The Situation - Manual support process with a high response time

The following are some frequently asked customer questions:

  • Where is my order?
  • What is the return and refund policy?
  • How to cancel my order?
  • How to place an order over the phone?
  • I need to know the box strength and dimensions
  • I want a quote, and so on.

The client was in a situation where they needed to find the simplest and most efficient way to provide answers to the questions listed above, particularly “where is my order?” because they provide free shipping and delivery on all packing boxes and packing supplies.

They used internal support staff to answer customer calls, respond to emails, and answer live chat questions. It has significantly increased their customer support costs, and most importantly, the support staff is tired of answering the same customer questions over and over.

Since they had a limited budget for customer support, they were unable to hire agents or outsource customer support to a call center.

They conducted research on customer support automation tools and began experimenting with Freshdesk, which offered a free plan.

However, they didn’t find the tool useful because Freshdesk is more of a ticket management platform and does not offer extensive customization for automation to answer frequently asked customer questions.

Solutions offered – Automated system, improved resolution time, and more PDP conversions

Earlier, responding to a customer inquiry took the team two business days. Freshdesk, their previous customer support tool, did not support automation and only integrated tickets from email, social media, and chat in one place.

They had to rely on support staff once more to respond to customer inquiries. Their CSAT (Customer Satisfaction Score) did not significantly improve.

RoundView’s automation module and all-in-one inbox served their needs perfectly.

They found the following features to be incredibly beneficial:

1. Automated rules can answer repetitive questions such as “Where is my order?” or “How do I return an order?”, allowing agents to focus more time on serious tickets.

2. RoundView centralized all customer interactions, including email, phone, text, and social media direct messages, and increased agent productivity.

3. Customers can connect with the support team in real-time by using chatbot triggers on product detail pages (PDF).
