LivePerson Enterprise for Retail

Increase conversion rates and average order values. Maximize customer satisfaction. Optimize your chat channel.

LivePerson Enterprise for Retail offers key features that are essential to delivering the following to enterprise-class retailers:

Provable increase in total orders and total revenue
Higher volume of qualified leads and opportunities
High agent productivity as measured by chats and orders per-hour-worked
High service levels as measured by shorter wait times for visitors and lower abandonment rates
Proactively deflect high cost phone and email contacts to a lower cost channel

Key Components of the solution include:

Value-Based Methodology. For enterprise-class retailers, simply adding chat technology isn't enough. A chat strategy must encompass people, process and unique business requirements, as well as technology to succeed. Based on industry best practices, LivePerson Enterprise for Retail employs innovative ways to anticipate and then meet the needs of those specific visitors who will generate incremental orders and revenue.

This begins with an extensive site audit to determine potential flows that may be currently limiting success. More importantly, to ensure ongoing success, every event that occurs within the sales funnel process must be planned, tested, executed, measured and assessed on a continuous basis in order to achieve desired performance levels.

LivePerson's value-based methodology includes:

Scorecards to measure performance trends and incremental value
Rules analysis to ensure each active rule is driving incremental value
Domain expertise to make all changes required to optimize performance
A hands-on account management approach along with an extensive array of programs to optimize your implementation

Technology Platform & Engagement Engine. The LivePerson Enterprise platform's engagement engine is a key differentiator in that it features:

A rules engine with engagement options that enable focused targeting of incremental orders
Active, server-based rules to continuously monitor visitors throughout the session (high potential visitors may not exhibit hot lead behavior patterns initially; knowing if and when to engage them requires continuous monitoring)
A comprehensive predictive dialer to evaluate agent availability and send invitations only when agents are immediately available
Cross-channel escalation that allows for seamless transition to another channel when appropriate. For instance, visitors may opt to escalate to a voice call when inquiring about a complex product
Multi-channel business rules to enable proactive chat or voice invitations for the available channel most appropriate for each visitor scenario
Real-time data mining leveraging self-learning predictive modeling to increase acceptance, conversion and customer satisfaction rates by scoring visitors most likely to benefit from interaction and prioritizing customers based on their score

Domain Expertise. Build vs. buy is a very important consideration prior to selecting a chat solution provider. Building a chat program in-house is an expensive proposition. Unlike many e-commerce fields, there is very little domain expertise in Engagement Marketing. With over 6,000 customers, LivePerson has more experience and domain expertise than any other vendor. LivePerson will shave years off the chat learning curve with best practices and industry benchmarking techniques designed to maximize performance and ramp productivity from the very beginning.

“By using LivePerson's tools, we can conveniently create better solutions and experiences for our customers, and ultimately outfit them with the right gear. We are better utilizing the talents we have in a whole new way, and our customers clearly love it.”
