Inform and remind - Proactive alerts and billing reminders using emails, texts and push notifications.

Keep your customers in the know

The Nuance inform and remind product proactively engages your customers and patients across channels with alerts, notifications and reminders. All to encourage desired actions – and enhance your relationship.

A friendly reminder that drives consumer action

Sometimes, a little nudge goes a long way. In a recent study, consumers said that receiving proactive alerts, billing reminders or notifications could have helped them avoid an issue like incomplete forms, expired credentials and missed deliveries or appointments. In fact, these same consumers claim they would call customer service or start a live chat if a company did not proactively reach out about an issue. Given the high cost of live agents, this presents a challenge for many companies.

Enter the Nuance proactive engagement platform’s inform and remind notification system, which enables you to orchestrate outreach using interactive voice response and SMS alerts, email and push notifications. The cloud-based platform reduces inbound operational costs through call deflection – all while increasing the likelihood that your customers will take that next step.

Features

Automate interactions to anticipate needs

Cross-channel contact strategy

Sometimes one call is all it takes – but these days, it often requires more to reach and engage a consumer. Automate your contact strategy with Nuance. If an interactive voice message is not answered, the proactive engagement platform automatically shifts channels, using text, email or push notifications to get your customer’s attention.

Text conversations

Increasingly mobile consumers often ignore phone calls, preferring to communicate via text messaging instead. Nuance proactive engagement uses Natural Language Understanding (NLU) to engage customers in a two-way text conversation capable of rescheduling an appointment – without involving a human agent.

Message personalization

Since no two customers are the same, your messages shouldn’t be either. Personalize each engagement by incorporating customer attributes and leveraging both explicit and implicit preferences. All to create a more meaningful interaction that produces more meaningful results.
