Digital customer service is on the rise. More and more companies are finding their way to the social web to answer questions of clients and prospects. A study I conducted earlier this year showed that about one out of three companies is currently helping clients in the digital world. Even though this percentage is still rather low, I have the feeling that online customer support may become a mainstream element in a social media strategy. The performance of many companies is improving and most of the active players are already preparing for the future.

Looking at this evolution, I was wondering how webcare can be a differentiator in the future. What if the majority of the companies are offering online service, how can you stand out? To offer you a broad scope, I talked about this topic with a broad range of national and international experts, people from the field and opinion leaders. You can find their vision later in this post.
