2This shows how incredibly important this human
touch-point is! And you cant blame consumers for
needing a tangible point of contact in an
intangible digital environment!
Human Touch Point

3It made me think about how, as a customer, we
value the phone contact with a supplier. We dont
want lots of follow-up calls, but more that we am
reassured by the option of a phone call.

4Human Touch Point
- Remembering recent interactions with on-line
retailers, we have found the on-line chat-boxes
with sales advisors very helpful its quicker
than queuing in a call, and there is immediate
traceability for the sales person. It also helps
with time zone differences and potential
pronunciation embarrassments.

5Phone is not a Redundant Tool
- On the contrary even, its a vital piece that
doesnt always get used appropriately. There is
research to suggest that, as the significance of
the purchase increases, the more likely consumers
are to put a call in. - This consequential purchase needs to be tracked.
So in our mind its not just the telephone that
is important, but detailed CRM and tracking to
understand individuals behavior.

6Phone is not a Redundant Tool
- The Resource Tap research actually found that way
too many companies rarely have the processes in
place to track and analyze the calls they make - 82 of marketers say its important to link
online marketing to offline sales but 78 only
link phone calls to marketing activity at the
most basic campaign level. - More than half (52) of marketers say they dont
have a complete view of how their own and offline
marketing activity is driving phone sales.

7Sales Cycles (albeit B2B),
- Having been involved in sales cycles (albeit
B2B), we have noticed that the phone plays an
important part of marketing activity. - We able to trace our sales to campaigns and give
our marketing manager true feed-back on the
campaigns and what revenue has been generated.

8Sales Cycles (albeit B2B),
- It is a good thing to be able to attribute sales
to particular campaigns and to remember that all
consumers dont behave in the same way. Any
system that allows businesses to identify better
ways of selling has to be a plus.
