Where shoppers get stuck during BFCM

Six customer service gaps to check before traffic rises.

  1. 01

    Unclear sale rules

    When only one teammate knows the terms, shoppers wait or get different answers.

  2. 02

    Unreliable delivery dates

    One date for every location can set the wrong expectation.

  3. 03

    Missing order updates

    Shoppers contact your team just to find out where an order is.

  4. 04

    Overloaded chat

    Messages per day rise 62% in BFCM week and stay 45% higher for three weeks of December, so peak traffic leaves messages delayed or unanswered.

  5. 05

    Lost conversation context

    Shoppers have to explain their issue again to each agent.

  6. 06

    Unreviewed questions

    Unanswered questions keep coming back without a fix.

For the full picture, and more on how shoppers behave through the BFCM season, read the report these gaps come from.
