How fast can you get a gallon of milk, a roll of paper towels, or even a pint of gourmet ice cream? These household necessities used to at least require a quick trip to the corner store. Now I can tap on my smartphone, place an order, and have Haagen-Dazs, Bounty, and more delivered within the hour.
In the digital world of instant gratification, we expect customer support to be immediate, always-on, and personalized. These are no longer differentiators for a business; they’re table stakes. And most businesses aren’t ready to earn their seat at the table.
