5 reasons managed live chat is a must for your website

Whether you’re looking to drive more sales, increase lead generation, or improve the customer service and support that you offer online, having managed live chat on your website will make a huge difference to the performance of your business.

There are so many reasons why having managed live chat on your website is a no-brainer. But we appreciate you don’t have all day, so here are just five key reasons…

1: Time is money 

Time is something we all seem to have so little of these days. Any business that can buy a few minutes back for its web visitors is going to win in the customer satisfaction game. If you can offer a fantastic customer experience you’ll be rewarded many times over with impressive website performance metrics, such as bounce rate, time on site, pages per visit…and ultimately sales!

2: It gives you the human touch

Doesn’t your heart just sink when you’re using live chat and you realise you’re in fact “chatting” with a robot? And even more so when they don’t know what you’re talking about! Us humans are, by our very nature, social creatures and today's consumers want to feel connected to a brand. This is why our customers love the fact that a real-life human being talks to their web visitors.

3: Real-time support

Having access to services like on-demand TV, superfast internet connections, live news feeds and social media mean that as consumers, we want – and expect – immediate answers. If your website is even slightly difficult to navigate around, you are at risk of losing business to a brand that can deliver what your visitor wants NOW. Offering managed live chat on your website 24/7 and you can direct your visitors to exactly where they need to be to increase the likelihood of getting that conversion.

4: Always open

Our figures show that 52% of online research is done outside of business hours. What would you do if you went to a shop and couldn’t find what you needed, but there was no-one there to help you? You’d walk out, wouldn’t you? Well the same can be said of your website. You have to be there to help your customers at a time that suits them - not you – or you will lose out!

5: Stand out from your competitors

Having a top-of-the-range live chat service on your website is a true differentiator. So many business owners that we speak to have used live chat, but don’t offer it to their own customers. By having intelligent, fully-managed live chat on your website, you are setting yourselves apart from your competition.
