Salesforce Services

Getting the deal signed is only half the battle – once you have your new customer it is important to keep them happy and service them well. Salesforce Service Cloud helps you ensure that your customers are successful and happy.

A Single View of the Customer

Salesforce Service Cloud is built on the Salesforce Platform, so integrates seamless with your other Salesforce services to provide you with a truly 360 degree view of the customer so you can help them. See their account and contact information from Salesforce Sales Cloud. Understand their interactions with your marketing collateral in Salesforce Marketing Cloud or Salesforce Pardot. By allowing seamless integrations with other Salesforce services your customer service agents can truly understand and recognise who the customer is to help them.

Omnichannel

Whatever channel – phone, email, chat, SMS, social media or web, Salesforce Service Cloud provides a single unified experience for your agents to handle customer requests. Route cases to the appropriate queue depending on their subject, enforce SLAs, and communicate with the customer on whatever channel from a single screen. You can also assign workloads, skills and prioritisation to ensure that the right person for the job is on hand helping the customer.

Knowledge and Public Knowledge Bases

Salesforce Service Cloud can be extended with Salesforce Knowledge to allow you to build out a powerful knowledge base of detailed information to help agents help customers, but also help customers help themselves. Craft simple to use and clear knowledge articles that you can publish to the web and a public knowledge base with one click, all from within the Salesforce UI.

Case Deflection

Once these knowledge articles are ready they become the first line in helping you deflect customer cases and answer customer queries faster. Customers want to be able to help themselves, and through a public knowledge base, Salesforce Experiences, Einstein Chatbots and more, you can help the customer find the information they need, when they need it. 

How has Cloud Galacticos helped Cloud Nine utilise Salesforce Service Cloud?

Cloud Nine engaged Cloud Galacticos as their chosen Salesforce partner to help them deliver a Salesforce Service Cloud based solution to manage their customer interactions and support.

Cloud Galacticos delivered a solution which was integrated with their ecommerce and order management solutions to provide a single system of truth for all their customer data. The solution provided customer care agents with all the information required to answer any consumer queries quickly and accurately, whilst engaging in email conversations from a single platform.

The tech industry is continually evolving, and with Salesforce it’s even more prevalent. Being at the forefront of technology is a strong focus at Salesforce. There are several new releases a year, with documentation covering hundreds of pages. At Cloud Galacticos, our team is primed to stay on top of the latest updates. They are also encouraged to keep on learning and take exams to stay top of the game.

Why Should You Consider a Salesforce Managed Services Package with Cloud Galacticos?

The first reason is to make sure you are not leaving money on the table. When you invest in Salesforce you get access to a huge suite of features. It is almost guaranteed however, that you are not going to utilise them all straight away. Many are not applicable to a brand new deployment and may be too much too quickly for a first roll-out. We are a big believer in the phrase “you don’t know what you don’t know”. This is especially true with a new software solution. You don’t know how users will use it, the things they will find easy and hard, and what features will help them be more productive. Having a managed services partnership can help you to add these features in an ongoing manner at the right time for you.

A Salesforce Managed Services Package With Cloud Galacticos Helps You Stay Updated

Salesforce has three releases a year during which an entirely new set of free features get rolled out to your environment. It’s always a surprise to us when we meet customers who weren’t aware of this. Many had gone years without reviewing the features they had available to them, again effectively leaving money on the table. As a managed services partner, Cloud Galacticos will work with you consistently to discuss the updates Salesforce are releasing. We will also suggest how to best utilise them to make sure you are taking advantage of the updates.

Want Access to a Dedicated Team of Salesforce Experts?

Expertise is another key benefit. For many organisations it is too costly to recruit a full time Salesforce team member who has the knowledge to be able to support them effectively. A managed services partnership with Cloud Galacticos takes care of this and allows you to have access to our team of skilled and knowledgeable professionals who can support you as needed and guide you to improving your Salesforce instance over the long term. 

A Salesforce Managed Services Package Gives Your Long Term Vision

Another big reason we love engaging with clients on a managed services basis is that it truly moves us to being long term collaborative partners. Often if organisations engage with a partner on a per project basis short term aims can overtake long term vision and strategy which is where a managed services partnership can truly help to ensure that going forward the long term vision is maintained and improved upon.
