Here are the newest integrations from Zendesk to help your team provide great experiences.

Anyone on a support team will tell you that responding to every customer inquiry is tough, especially if you’re working for a small business with limited resources. Using a do-not-reply email—a special type of account that’s unable to receive incoming messages—may seem like a tempting way to lessen that volume. It’s true that do-not-reply emails have their perks, and they may have a place in your business model.

As a sales manager, your eyes are glued to your company’s revenue. You’re focused on helping your team close more deals and increasing profitability. But are you sure you’re measuring sales revenue in the best possible way? Gross sales and net sales are two common metrics that offer distinct advantages when it comes to gauging revenue. If you’re not sure what they are and how they differ from each other, you’re not alone.

At Zendesk, we believe a key component of providing great customer experiences includes ensuring your agents are armed with the right tools and processes to deliver them. But with conversation volume increasing by more than 20 percent year over year, over a growing number of channels, support teams are struggling to keep up. As a result, businesses increasingly turn to AI to provide faster and more reliable service and make teams more efficient.

Enterprise sales is like running a marathon. Your focus isn’t on short-term wins—you’re playing the long game. And just like a marathon results in big physical and mental gains, enterprise sales results in significant revenue and increased opportunities for your business. That being said, you wouldn’t run a marathon without training first. You shouldn’t jump into enterprise sales unprepared, either.

It’s a common myth that B2B companies aren’t as focused on customer service as their B2C counterparts. According to an Accenture report , over 90 percent of B2B leaders believe that providing a great customer experience is the key to reaching their company’s goals. Focusing on the customer experience is especially critical for B2B companies. They typically have fewer customers than B2C companies, making it imperative that none of them slip through the cracks.

What do your customers think of your brand? How do they feel about the products and services you offer? If you’re unsure about the answers to these questions, you’re not alone. Customer perception is often difficult to understand because it’s subjective and varies from buyer to buyer. But this ambiguity doesn’t mean you should ignore your customers’ opinions.
