The Challenge

HelloFresh has capitalized on an enormous consumer appetite for healthy, convenient meals…to the tune of nearly 8 million global subscribers. As the world’s largest meal kit provider, HelloFresh has over 14,000 employees and relies on a support team of around 7,000 agents to deliver a great customer experience.

The Solution

Viking sought innovative ways to improve contact center effectiveness through a unified support techstack and single workspace where CSRs find answers fast and deliver them instantly to drivers, creating exceptional customer experiences on a consistent basis.

The Result

  • Virtually eliminated time to find information from 4 minutes to less than 30 seconds, drastically improving first contact resolution. 
  • Saved on physical labor and made support more cost effective by drastically improving collaboration between CSRs and stranded drivers via smarter content guidance powered by decision tree logic.
  • Reduced the need to run manual searches through a seamless CRM integration that powers relevant content suggestions to CSRs in real-time.

Why Finding Answers Was Originally Impossible

The Search if Innovative Solutions

Determined to find a solution to their customer care problem, Viking conducted an exhaustive search. 

“It was difficult to find the perfect knowledge management system. Our team searched high and low and found many knowledge bases, but none of them were different, and that’s what I was looking for.”

– Lead Project Manager at Viking.

For starters, Viking wanted a unified, single screen support solution for their CSRs to improve their day-to-day experiences, help them find answers faster, and manage exceptional customer experiences on a more consistent basis. After leveraging Shelf’s API to achieve a seamless integration with their homegrown CRM and ticketing system, their solution was a reality.

“We went from a process where CSRs had to navigate through endless folders, to answers automatically being presented in real-time. It was transformational for our customer support. Now our CSRs just do the work that they’d normally do, and almost magically, answers appear on the sidebar of our CRM.”

– Eric Hepburn, Chief Operating Officer (COO)

Agent Assist is Transformative

Viking also developed an Agent Assist module, powering real-time answers from their knowledge using inputs entered directly into their CRM. Eric Hepburn explains,

“It was an “A-ha! moment” for the company; not only were we able to achieve a single system feel, but we were able to leverage Shelf’s information architecture and unique search capabilities
to proactively push relevant results to our CSRs.”

Shelf has been invaluable to both company and customer. When customers call in, they expect that a vehicle will have to be dispatched to help them. Now, the company has a greater ability to collaborate with the caller to solve the problem and eliminate the need for physical assistance. This ends up being a huge win for customers, who get back on the road faster than they thought possible, and for the company, who operates much more efficiently because they dispatch fewer automotive technicians.
