Why C2B?
As we are all consumers, we know how important it is to get information and answers to questions quickly and easily about something we want to buy or about something we have bought. We expect convenience and immediate access to what we want. This is magnified as more business are involved.
We know businesses put a lot of time and money into trying to meet the expectations of their customers. Our mission is to make it easier for businesses to achieve this. We do this by looking at things from the customer's perspective. Consider this:
- Billions of dollars are lost every year when customers switch companies due to poor customer service. More than one-third of these cases are due to customers being fed up with speaking to multiple agents.
- Increasingly, messaging is the preferred customer service channel in developed and developing countries.
- In a recent survey of people from different parts of the world, 89% of people would be willing to use messaging to communicate with businesses.
In fact, when consumers cannot easily get a hold of a business or the business does not respond adequately, many of them resort to posting negative reviews online. This does not only reflect badly on the immediate business, it can also reflect badly on a business that referred the customer. Suffice it to say that communication with customers is critical to businesses and their reputations.
Our solution
C2B has specific B2C features not found in other messaging apps such as message organization, internal staff-only messages, and mistake prevention.
One notable benefit for businesses is the ability to give and receive instant customer referrals with other businesses. Consumers benefit because they can reply on the app as a convenient communication hub for a particular need that would involve multiple businesses; for example, buying/renting a home:
A person looking to buy a home may be messaging with a realtor about a property, leading to some questions about mortgage pre-approval. The realtor can refer the buyer to a mortgage broker so the buyer and broker can begin a separate, private messaging conversation instantly. Other businesses in the hub might be life insurance agents, home insurance agents, notaries, lawyers, appraisers, inspectors, architects, interior designers, movers, cleaners, contractors, tradespeople, and so on.
