Every organization should transform itself into a “customer first” organization where the business is more focused on the satisfaction of its consumers rather than making a sale.
64% of the surveyed buyers said that they would stop doing business with a company if they didn’t feel valued during a customer service transaction.

Moreover, the use of inappropriate slang or repulsive language, or acting overly earnestly with an inauthentic conversation, as well as excessive use of emojis in support contacts can turn away 64% of customers. Whereas, 61% of Generation Z prefer a neutral tone, and 56% of customers value professional language rather than an informal one. However, customers across all age groups appear not to like email, and 60% favor direct messaging.
