How Constant Contact transforms service centers with Glance
How Constant Contact uses Glance Constant Contact, a SaaS-based email marketing solution company, has always placed a high value on customer care. They recognize that happy and successful customers are loyal customers, and that each touch point provides an opportunity to deepen the customer relationship. Constant Contact has used Glance since 2005. Customer support agents can launch a sharing session with one click, view the customer’s screen, instantly understand the problem, and guide them to a speedy solution. Glance sessions are proven to drive measurably higher First Call Resolution (FCR) and higher Customer Satisfaction (CSAT) scores. In 2016, Constant Contact began an initiative to take advantage of these high CSAT moments. They realized that customer support calls with a positive outcome — and the resultant spike in CSAT — represented a perfect opportunity to cross-sell and up-sell related products and services to happy customers. Agent KPIs now include recommending up-sell options, acceptance rate, and revenue contribution. A multi-pronged approach To breathe life into this initiative, Constant Contact embarked on a comprehensive strategy that incorporated in-depth training combined with innovative technology. The company’s service agents were taught to identify which customer interactions were, indeed, sales opportunities and, of those, which were appropriate for up-selling products and consulting services. Along with its focus on training and data analytics, Constant Contact understood it needed to implement robust technology that would enable its agents to elevate the level of personal service they could deliver. Delivering exceptional service leads to the “high-CSAT moments” to which Kenny refers. These are perfect moments for up-selling. The company consulted its long-time partner and industry leader in visual engagement solutions, Massachusetts-based Glance Networks. The idea was to understand how Glance can help Constant Contact leverage its co-browse and screen share capabilities — which have demonstrably increased its CSAT scores — to convert customer touch points into revenue opportunities.
Large bank delights customers by bringing the human touch to their digital experience
Taking the in-branch experience digital Amid the COVID-19 pandemic shutdown in 2020, safe social distancing measures meant moving the in-branch experience to the digital environment for both bankers and customers. Loan officers and tellers had to transition their interactions from in-person to online. The need for innovation became the “Aha” moment for leaders in the Omnichannel and Online Strategy departments. They quickly decided to empower their in-branch tellers and business banking teams with visual engagement tools such as cobrowse and screen share. With one simple click of a button, business banking team members were able to join customers in the online application and help small businesses file for Payroll Protection Program (PPP) government loans. Glance Agent Video was added to the mix. Agent video lets the customer see a live video stream of the bank staff member who is helping them with their digital transaction. An omnichannel approach to the online banking experience Bankers and service reps in the call center are able to instantly launch Glance Cobrowse sessions to join the customer in the browser, see the web page, and guide customer navigation. By creating an omnichannel approach to their online banking experience, this large bank was able to retain current customers and focus on the growth of new customers. Their high-touch “do it with me” approach with cobrowse and screen share has helped bank staff to provide real-time assistance to retail customers and small businesses as they navigate through the app. Glance’s visual engagement tools were a part of their PPP strategy, which provided over seven billion dollars in loans.

Glance yields higher returns for CSAT and digital transactions at Axos Bank
How Axos Bank uses Glance With Glance, Axos bankers can see exactly what an account holder sees on their screen as they navigate the online banking app. Agents can guide customers through a number of transactions, including bill payments, fund transfers, and the completion of applications for bank products like mortgages and personal loans. Glance collaboration sessions can be launched easily by the banker, and Glance requires no download from the customer. It is a frictionless experience for the banker and the customer that works with any computer or mobile web browser the customer might be using. Glance is engineered to comply with the strictest security and privacy standards of financial services companies. Sensitive personal information in the customer’s online banking account can be masked from the view of the banker. Glance encrypts all transmitted data and employs enterprise-class SSO. How did we do it? “Human interaction, especially when it’s related to finance, is an inherently emotional and sensitive topic,” said Jonathan Crane, senior vice president of Axos’ Centers of Excellence. “Our goal is to meet our clients in the way they best prefer to interact. Sometimes they do need that higher touch connection.” The technology, provided by Glance, is a Javascript tag that’s coded into the online banking portal that lets customer service agents see exactly what an account holder sees on their screen as they peruse the bank’s website. Its bankers can “co-browse” with customers and guide them through a number of transactions. Once screen sharing is enabled, the banker can use their cursor to direct customers where they need to click in their account to initiate a transaction, find information, or enter sensitive information. On their end, the banker never sees any sensitive financial details that a customer enters into a specified field. Before a connection is made, the lender will alert the customer about exactly what the banker has access to and can view in the account. For further assurance, the banker can initiate a one-way video feed that shows the customer they’re being attended to in real time. Unlike IT remote access, however, Axos’ representatives do not have the ability to initiate or complete any transactions on behalf of the customer.
