When we are looking for any type of service provider for our household needs we ask all kind of questions, check references, get multiple bids. We know and understand well what we are looking for and what questions we need to ask.

Social CRM triggered the whole new level of discussions around automated/self-service support options. People are demanding real-time interactions with the “live” person. Everywhere they go. Why?
