Sports PLC Rollout Real-Time Live Chat Across Website Portfolio

PRLog (Press Release) – Jan 25, 2008 – The Sports HQ began trading online in 2001; from this date it has developed an increasingly loyal customer base – over 50% of orders in 2007 originated from repeat business.

“As a forward thinking organisation with a reputation for excellent customer service, Sports PLC is continuously searching for new and improved means to better serve the needs and wants of its customers”. Rob Willis, Marketing Manager (Sports PLC).

Sports PLC acknowledge that its customers can require specific information and advice on selecting the correct set of golf clubs for example. Live Help provides a real alternative to the telephone for customers with little or no time to spare.

In the case of Golfballs.co.uk – a new service from Sports PLC offering personalised golf equipment – “we’ve found that customers can request specific customisation instructions or delivery requirements” Rob commented. Live Help is designed to recognise a customer enquiry and can offer assistance in real-time.

Live Help is currently available between 9am - 5.30pm (Mon-Fri) on http://www.thesportshq.com | http://www.golfballs.co.uk | http://www.sportsplc.com – all out-of-hours enquiries are recorded and responded to the following day.
