Today’s technology has made it easier to obtain a loyal customer base. With the implementation of the right technology, small businesses can meet the needs of customers.

Reports state that 37 percent of customers use a chatbot to get a quick response in case of an emergency.

In addition, these live agents are cost-effective. Small businesses can deploy chatbots without having to hire many employees for customer service. 

2. Cloud Based Phone Systems

Small businesses can save a big amount of money by implementing cloud phone systems. Instead of purchasing expensive hardware and paying phone bills and maintenance costs, businesses can use this virtual phone system through the internet. According to Gartner, VoIP usage is expected to increase to 90 percent by 2021. 

Not only do cloud-based phone systems save costs but also offer numerous benefits. Businesses can make calls from anywhere, customize a welcome message, view call log reports, collaborate with the team and so on. 

To help your brand build a professional image, many cloud-based phone system providers also allow you to get a business phone number. 

3. Big Data 

Apart from larger companies, small businesses can also leverage big data to increase sales. According to a study, companies using big data to its full power could increase its operating margin by greater than 60 percent.
