Turning Service Interactions Into a 7% Lift in AMC Conversion
Understanding why customers weren't renewing OEM AMCs let service teams target the right customers with the right message, instead of a generic pitch.
ITChamps implemented an AI-enabled customer and service intelligence solution for a leading air-conditioner manufacturer, identifying why customers weren't opting for OEM AMCs and enabling targeted conversion engagement.
The Challenge
A large installed base, but no clear read on why AMC conversion lagged
Although the organization had a large installed customer base, not all customers opted for AMC services from the OEM, and the business lacked a systematic understanding of why.
- Not all customers with OEM equipment opted for the OEM's AMC.
- The reasons for non-conversion were not systematically understood.
- Service teams lacked visibility into individual customer concerns and requirements.
- There was no way to identify which customers were more likely to convert.
