That’s why when we earn raving-fan customer feedback, we get more than a little excited. I’d like to share what recent customers have said about us and why it’s important. At our very core, our purpose has always been to liberate and empower entrepreneurs so they can enjoy doing business and have more time to spend doing the things they love. That purpose can only be realized when we provide quality <a title="Infusionsoft Service" href="http://www.infusionblog.com/infusionsoft-company-buzz/marketing-automation-for-small-businesses-isnt-just-software/">service</a> and <a title="Infusionsoft Help Center" href="http://www.infusionblog.com/customer-service/infusionsoft-help-center-redesigned-for-you/">support</a> to our users.<span id="more-14338"></span></p><p>Truth be told, it has been a journey for us. We are still fine-tuning our perfect customer service formula and how we communicate our appreciation and love for every user. There’s no denying that we care about all our users. From Success Coaches to our Training team, we have assembled the most compassionate, authentic and capable teams who are devoted entirely to the success of our users.</p><p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14342" style="border: 1px #777 solid;" title="This is an email from Steve." src="http://www.infusionblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Steve-Dale-Email.jpg" alt="This is an email from Steve." width="600" height="340" /><br /> Thanks, Steve!</p><p>We subscribe to the thought that great customer service is no longer about telling people how great we are. It’s about producing <a title="Infusionsoft ROI" href="http://www.infusionsoft.com/customers/case-studies">results.</a> And who better to tell you if our formula is indeed working, than the customers we strive to WOW every day? In the office, we forward many customer emails, Tweets, Facebook comments and survey responses around. It helps us keep a finger on the pulse of our users’ opinions on our company. Included below are some recent examples of what our users have told us. These babies keep us intentional about the way we serve. And we&#8217;re sincerely grateful to the customers who take time out of their busy schedules to share support for a company that cares about them. We thrive on the relationships we build with users &#8212; they propel us forward in our quest for 100% customer satisfaction.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14345" style="border: 1px #777 solid;" title="Customer Service - Tweet" src="http://www.infusionblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/CS_Blog_Post_5.png" alt="Customer Service - Tweet" width="364" height="90" /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14344" style="border: 1px #777 solid;" title="This is a Facebook Wall Post on our customer service." src="http://www.infusionblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/CS_Blog_Post_6.png" alt="This is a Facebook Wall Post on our customer service." width="600" height="180" /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14343" style="border: 1px #777 solid;" title="This is an email from Jeffrey." src="http://www.infusionblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Jeffrey-Email.jpg" alt="This is an email from Jeffrey." width="600" height="116" /></p><p>In addition to our customer service teams (Tech Support, Success Coaches, Account Managers and Training), the <em>entire</em> company is highly educated in the problems and pains experienced by small business owners. And I mean everyone; it’s a <a title="Infusionsoft Company Culture" href="http://www.infusionsoft.com/culture" target="_blank">customer-centric culture</a> here!

Many users are accustomed to searching Google for help, so we combined the power of Google behind our search feature. What makes this search so awesome is that it searches <em>all</em> our support resources, giving users instant access to the answers you need.</p><p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong><a href="http://kb.infusionsoft.com/" target="_blank">User Guide</a> –</strong> The User Guide is a user-friendly knowledge base that contains updated articles and tutorials for using Infusionsoft. Specifically, we target the “types” of users of Infusionsoft – from Sales Reps to Virtual Assistants and give them the right information they need in only a couple clicks.</p><p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong><a href="http://help.infusionsoft.com/training" target="_blank">Training</a></strong> – Knowing the strategy before going full-bore into the tactics is the difference between success and failure. We break down and explain all the useful marketing automation concepts with our wide array of training videos, webinars, tutorials, growth strategies, customer examples and email best practices.</p><p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong><a href="http://help.infusionsoft.com/services" target="_blank">Services</a> </strong>– For users who need additional assistance with building their marketing strategy, data transition or individual training, we have premium services available and explain them in full detail. This is great for businesses who want to fast-track their marketing automation software success. Our team has helped over 6500 businesses implement Infusionsoft successfully and they’d love to help you.</p><p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong><a href="http://community.infusionsoft.com/" target="_blank">Community</a></strong> – We have a new community area which includes easy-to-use discussion forums, upcoming user groups, quick access to the blog and the ability to suggest an idea to our Product Management team.</p><p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong><a href="http://help.infusionsoft.com/developers" target="_blank">Developers</a> – </strong>Attracting and supporting our growing base of developers is important to us. We’ve reorganized our documentation and have made it even easier for tech-savvy programmers to code up their next integration with Infusionsoft.</p><p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong><a href="http://help.infusionsoft.com/support" target="_blank">Support</a></strong> – In the unlikely event the extensive documentation and the variety of updated help articles wasn’t enough, or you simply want to get in touch with a friendly support representative, we’ve got you covered. We provide some helpful tips and quick access at any time to talk with us either by phone or online chat.</p><p>Our Training team is very proud of their efforts and continues to make enhancements to improve the user experience. This means tweaks to the UI, search algorithm and also analyzing how users interact with it.

It’s a great benefit to our users because they don’t have to call and wait on hold if they have a simple question.</p><p>Our friendly support representatives will be available to answer any questions users have about the software and will be able to provide links to relevant training articles and videos that you can refer back to later.</p><p>We’ve had chat in “beta” mode for a few months with select users and have received very positive feedback from it. Here is some of the feedback people have shared with us:</p><p style="padding-left: 30px;">“Not waiting in a phone queue with a phone to my head!  I can get on with other stuff while I wait.”</p><p style="padding-left: 30px;">“Great for quick questions that I have while I’m busy working and don’t have time to call.”</p><p style="padding-left: 30px;">“Allows me to stay focused on my job and get the answers that I need.”</p><p>Over the past couple of years, we have maintained an online Q&amp;A section on the <a title="Infusionsoft Help Center" href="http://helpcenter.infusionsoft.com" target="_blank">Help Center.</a> The new chat support will replace the Q&amp;A section of the Help Center. We hope the immediate, personalized attention now accessible through chat will be a far more effective way for users to get their questions answered.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.infusionblog.com/customer-service/chat-support-now-available-for-infusionsoft-users/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>4</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
