Their interactions with the brand, experiences, feedback and perceptions should be aptly captured, studied and improved upon. And that’s where the GoPerform App comes in. Installed on mobiles, it helped salespeople quickly tackle customer feedback in real-time and resolve their complex issues with speed and simplicity. With the help of the GoPerform app, employees have picked up the skills to engage with customers better without breaking away from the conversation.
