Jupiter: companies lag in e-mail response
Article Abstract:
A Jupiter Customer Service WebTrack survey has revealed that many businesses are failing to respond to customer e-mails in a timely manner, a practice that may negatively affect that channel as a whole. The survey indicated that more than half of consumers expect to resolve their customer service problems via e-mail within six hours, yet only 38% of companies are meeeting those expectations. The study concluded that companies' failure to respond to customer inquiries could affect customer confidence in e-mail as a channel.
