Due to COVID-19, in 2020 we moved online. We zoomed teammates from our kitchens, ordered groceries online. Isolated, we looked for brands that engaged in a human way. That empathized with our woes, shared our values, made our lives easier.

To enable this shift, brands had to go beyond social and activate the voice of the customer. Understanding what consumers are saying — truly understanding — can only be achieved through conversational intelligence data.

Tweets, blogs, chatbots, emails, call center transcripts, reviews. Consumer conversations are happening everywhere — online and off. But, with advances in data capture from multiple conversational sources, more precise consumer insights are there to be found. Enabling brands to increase their offerings and meet increasing customer demands.
