The festive season is a critical period for retailers, accounting for a significant portion of annual sales. Adobe Analytics forecasts that U.S. online holiday sales for 2024 will reach a new high of $240.8 billion, representing an 8.4% increase from 2023. However, with increased sales come unique challenges, such as managing high customer inquiry volumes, ensuring operational efficiency, and maintaining customer loyalty. This is where Customer Experience Management (CXM) solutions step in, offering innovative strategies to handle these demands effectively.

Alldigi has curated and proven strategies over two decades of customer support & acquisition to optimize lead generation, onboarding & customer retention during seasonal peaks.

Managing Surges in Customer Inquiries

During the busy holiday season, call center volumes can spike up to 10X the average, according to PeakSupport. Retailers often struggle with delays in responses, which directly impact customer satisfaction. Alldigi’s four BPO centers, staffed with over 5,500 FTEs and equipped with the capacity to scale based on demand, make us the preferred partner for Retail and E-commerce clients during these critical periods. Our omnichannel CXM solutions integrate all communication channels—email, chat, social media, and phone—into a unified platform, enabling seamless customer interactions, reducing response times, and improving issue resolution rates. With a proven track record of achieving 100% targets in Average Handling Time (AHT), we ensure efficiency and satisfaction at every customer touchpoint.

  • Companies using omnichannel support see a 91% higher customer retention rate compared to those without (Aberdeen Group).

Ensuring Operational Efficiency During Peak Times

Operational efficiency is paramount during the holiday rush, especially when managing high volumes of customer interactions. Retailers can leverage Alldigi’s omni-channel CXM expertise to enhance campaign success. Our deep understanding of customer support processes enables us to develop strategies that optimize the use of non-voice solutions such as email and SMS, streamlining workflows and reducing response times. Predictive analytics can forecast peak times and optimise resources, ensuring that retailers are prepared to meet demand.

  • According to Salesforce, the upcoming Cyber Week is projected to generate $311 billion in global sales, with AI and agents expected to influence up to 19% of those purchases as consumers eagerly anticipate holiday deals.

Building Loyalty Through Exceptional Customer Support

The holiday season is more than just making sales—it’s a chance to create lasting customer relationships. Alldigi’s global delivery footprint and omni-channel expertise enable end-to-end inbound customer experience operations, ensuring seamless support across email, chat, social media, and voice platforms. Our institutionalized rigor in SLA and operational management, combined with continuous skill development through PTnD (Product Training & Development) programs, ensures high-quality, consistent service. 

The Impact of CXM on Retail Success

Implementing advanced CXM solutions has a direct impact on revenue and customer satisfaction. According to Merkle, over 75% of consumers say that consistent customer experiences and service increase their likelihood of doing business with a brand.
