Why This Matters

What It Is

Omnichannel feedback collection across SMS, email, app, and web with journey-triggered surveys achieving 35-50% response rates vs 10-20% for email-only approaches.

Current State vs Future State Comparison

Current State

(Traditional)

1. Marketing team creates post-purchase email survey. 2. Survey sent to all customers 3 days after purchase. 3. Generic survey with 10-15 questions (takes 5-10 minutes). 4. 10-20% response rate due to email fatigue and survey length. 5. No feedback collected at other journey touchpoints.

Characteristics

  • Survey platforms (e.g., SurveyMonkey, Qualtrics)
  • Customer Experience Intelligence platforms (e.g., Medallia, Clarabridge)
  • Social media monitoring tools (e.g., Hootsuite, Brandwatch)
  • Support ticket management systems (e.g., Zendesk, Freshdesk)
  • Call center recording and transcription systems (e.g., CallRail, Rev)

Pain Points

  • Data fragmentation leading to incomplete customer insights.
  • Sampling bias from analyzing only a subset of feedback.
  • Channel silos preventing unified analysis across feedback sources.
  • Complexity of unstructured data making it difficult to derive clear themes.

Future State

(Agentic)

1. Feedback Collection Agent identifies optimal feedback moments across journey: post-purchase, post-delivery, post-service, post-browse. 2. Channel Optimization Agent selects best channel per customer: SMS for mobile-first, email for desktop, in-app for app users. 3. Agent delivers micro-surveys (2-3 questions) at the moment of experience. 4. Agent personalizes questions based on customer journey path and touchpoints experienced. 5. Trigger Engine activates surveys based on journey events (delivery confirmed, support case closed).

Characteristics

  • Customer journey data and touchpoint history
  • Channel preference and engagement data
  • Survey response history by channel and timing
  • Customer contact information (email, phone, app ID)
  • Journey event triggers (purchase, delivery, service)
  • Customer segment and preference data

Benefits

  • 35-50% response rate vs 10-20% (15-30 pt improvement)
  • Omnichannel reach (SMS 90% open rate, in-app 80% engagement)
  • Journey-triggered surveys capture feedback at moment of experience
  • Micro-surveys (2-3 questions) reduce abandonment
  • 5-10x more touchpoint coverage vs post-purchase only
  • Personalized questions increase relevance and completion
