How Vandebron scaled their chat support by 150% without scaling their team
Green energy provider Vandebron needed to manage a surge in volumes, while ensuring customers received the instant support they expect — all without hiring a single extra agent.
Vandebron is a green energy company providing households across the country with solar, wind, and bio energy.
Vandebron serves 200,000 energy consumers with customer support in Dutch.
45 full-time employees receive an average of 5,000 chat requests per month.
Vandebron agents work across phone, email, and chat, with self-service available to logged-in customers.
Vandebron wanted to empower its customer support team to meet a surge in requests during the 2022 energy crisis.
Chat automation that fully resolves 50% of requests and proactively guides customers to self-serve and seamlessly integrates with its CRM platform: Salesforce.
Vandebron wanted to make their CX as smooth as possible in the midst of a 2022 surge in energy prices. This included training their customers to self-serve, so they would get what they were urgently looking for faster. Vandebron found Ultimate through their CRM Salesforce's marketplace “Appexchange”, choosing it over the competition thanks to its seamless Salesforce CRM integration.
Automation helped Vandebron and their customers power through the energy crisis, letting them manage 150% higher volumes without needing to scale their team or tech resources. Now, their bot is doing the work of one entire support team.
Bob Molenaar
Digital Experience Manager, Vandebron
Currently, every season is busy season for Vandebron, so the fact that automation handles the work of an entire additional team is a life saver for them.
Vandebron chose Ultimate because it was recommended on the Salesforce marketplace, meaning they were able to integrate into Salesforce without creating silos or any interruptions to their existing tech stack.
Vandebron carefully tracks their NPS and have seen that customers are taking exceptionally well to automated, 24/7 chat.
A 50% automation rate is driving down Vandebron's cost per interaction, enabling Vandebron to handle more overall volumes at a lower cost.
