Infographic showing the significant increase in ROI from using Generative AI in Salesforce, illustrating automation benefits, cost reduction, and improved customer satisfaction. This visual emphasizes the transformative power of AI in optimizing sales processes and boosting business efficiency.

Introduction

In the era of digital transformation and automation, AI applications are at the forefront of innovation.

As a leader in customer relationship management, balancing human and automated services for optimal customer satisfaction is essential.

Without an innovative approach, survival in the age of transformative technology becomes a challenge.

You can generate as much as 161.44% ROI by using AI to summarize cases

Automation, particularly in customer relationship management, can unlock numerous advantages that enhance efficiency, reduce costs, increase customer satisfaction, and provide a competitive edge.


The Need for AI

Globally, 73% of businesses have adopted AI systems and automated their business strategies. If you're still using an outdated playbook to manage your workflow, it's time to consider the benefits of AI in customer relationship management:

Before investing in AI for your Salesforce org, it's crucial to conduct an ROI analysis.


Cost of Manual Customer Support

Consider a call center providing customer support for a business. The approximate numbers and costs are as follows:

Number of Agents Avg. Calls Taken by Agent/Day Avg. Time to Read Case Details Hourly Cost of Agent Daily Expense on Manual Case Summarization
100 40 3 minutes $30 $6000

The daily 'Case data summarization tax' is $6000, which also results in longer waiting times for customers.

But what if your numbers are different? Plug in your numbers here.


Impact of Grunt Work

Grunt work, tasks that are not an employee's primary role, can significantly impact a business's profitability.

For instance, a customer service rep handling paperwork, reading case summaries, and storing records wastes valuable time that could be better spent serving customers.


Role of AI in Eliminating Grunt Work

AI can help eliminate grunt work and empower customer service reps by assisting them in various aspects of their jobs:

  • Customer preference: AI can deliver a more personalized and satisfactory experience by identifying customer preferences.
  • Workflow management: AI can automate small, time-consuming tasks that require human intervention, like invoicing, data entry, and outreach efforts.
  • Sentiment Tracking: AI can help customer service reps understand a customer's satisfaction levels before taking over the conversation.

Salesforce + GPTfy is The Key

GPTfy, a Salesforce AppExchange App, uses AI to auto-generate case summaries. It can securely process cases, related emails & notes and automatically add them to case records for the agent.

GPTfy can reveal actionable insights into how to approach your business with Salesforce.
