Vienna, VA (November 09, 2009) –

Parature, a global leader in on-demand customer service software, announced today that it will sponsor a free webinar offering customer service and support professionals keen insight in to the importance of multi-channel service options to customer retention. The webinar entitled “A Multi-Channel Service Environment – Essential to Customer Retention” will be held on Thursday, November 12, 2009 at 2:00pm EST. To register for the webinar, please visit www.parature.com/webinars.

In today’s environment, the customer has never been more important – customer satisfaction and retention are critical to any organization’s success, and customer service is essential to that end. The most efficient and successful customer support departments are versatile; providing their customers with a preferred method of support. Today’s customers are tech-savvy and require so much more than simple phone support. Integrated multi-channel service options, such as self-service via knowledgebases and downloads, live chat sessions, mobile applications, and easy issue escalation paths via the Web must be implemented to empower support teams to provide the level of service that customers expect.

“A Multi-Channel Service Environment – Essential to Customer Retention” will feature John Ragsdale, vice president of technology research for the Technology Services Industry Association (TSIA). Mr. Ragsdale, whose expertise is in creating strategies for improving the overall customer experience and services operation through technology, will discuss customer satisfaction as it relates to various support channels, as well as pitfalls of not integrating these channels.
