Challenges

  • Slow Response Times

    Customers waited too long for replies, with no clear system in place to keep up with incoming requests.

  • Unclear Ownership and Workflows

    Undefined responsibilities between teams meant tickets fell through the cracks.

  • Lack of SOPs

    With no consistent processes or a clear standard to follow, support quality varied from agent to agent.

  • Lack of Reliable Reporting

    Limited visibility into support performance made it hard to track progress and make informed decisions.

Solution

Our setup covered everything from the Zendesk-to-Intercom migration and workflow restructuring to chatbot implementation, all configured to fix the gaps and get the team running smoothly.

  • Migrated from Zendesk to Intercom

    We performed data migration and rebuilt the workspace from the ground up, including saved replies, automations, and key configurations.

  • Restructured Workflows

    Redesigned inboxes, views, and workflows to improve how conversations were handled across teams and agents.

  • Implemented a Chatbot

    Set up a chatbot to handle common requests automatically, reducing the volume of conversations that reach the support team.

  • Performed Omnichannel Integration

    Enabled WhatsApp alongside existing chat, emails, and Instagram, giving customers more ways to reach support without adding strain to the team.

  • Automated Customer Support

    Standardized communication through automated responses, cutting manual effort and keeping replies consistent.

  • Configured Reporting

    Set up analytics and reporting to give clear visibility into support performance and make tracking progress straightforward.
