7 Knowledge Management Best Practices That Drive Great Customer Service

Each year, organizations invest billions in user experience solutions. Yet, despite their inherent value, many such programs fail to deliver the results companies want. Instead of navigating complex processes and knowledge channels with ease, customers find themselves struggling to locate the relevant information and useful guidance they need.

Per Gartner, “By 2023, organizations at advanced stages of digital transformation will find that poor customer experience is their biggest barrier to further success.”

Speedy content creation and knowledge retrieval are too important to ignore. As customers become increasingly digitally savvy, there is an expectation that instant, easy access is the norm. To stay ahead of the growing demand for “need-it-now” information, Gartner has identified seven best practices companies should follow when developing their content and knowledge delivery systems:

  1. Outside-in Design Thinking
  2. Knowledge Base Consolidation
  3. Search Engine Optimization
  4. Guided Experience
  5. Intelligent Site and App Search
  6. Virtual Customer Assistants
  7. Content Contextualization
