Customer ServiceLeveraging the latest technology with IVR, Live Agent, Email and Web Chat, a2b can service your customers professionally and efficiently. Enabled by cloud routing technology, inbound calls are automatically routed to the best available agent, increasing the success of each call. Calls may also be routed to a2b’s select, integrated contact center partners, providing scalability when needed.

Smart IVR is available for secure, inbound order capture or to provide callers with order status updates, including shipment delivery status.

Because our contact center tools are integrated with our Order Management System, the customer record is automatically displayed on the agent’s screen before they even pick up the call, saving time and cost. Call data is captured within the customer record, including a link to the call recording.

Email and Web Chat are also supported. Our Web Chat technology can easily integrate with most web sites, allowing your customers to click and chat with a live agent, saving a customer service call.

By staging a portion of your inventory in our Toronto-area facility, Canadian consumers receive your product faster, more economically and with duties prepaid. This streamlined methodology increases customer satisfaction, which translates into decreased cancellations and customer service costs.

CANADA a2b now helps merchants reach 33 million Canadian consumers with the same efficiency that we’re famous for in the US.

The ProblemShipping to Canadian consumers from a US warehouse is less efficient because: • Long transit times (often 1-2 weeks Time-In Transit)• Poor-to-non-existent tracking (unless shipping via much more expen-

sive methods)• Cumbersome process for consumers who must pay duties to the

carrier at time of delivery (not customer friendly)

The Solutiona2b’s Canadian Solution provides:• One partner for both US and Canadian orders (one file, one point-of-

contact, one system – a2b does all the work)• Fast delivery (as quick as next day)• Excellent Tracking• Duty Free Delivery (duties collected at the time of sale – customer

friendly)
