The way in which we communicate has been changing for decades, new tools or channels are constantly emerging and are gradually becoming more relevant in the daily lives of many people until they become fundamental. 

Consumers are becoming more demanding both in their products and services as well as in their customer service channels with companies, as they want immediacy and promptness in the response to their queries and/or complaints. 

Thus, companies must generate alternative channels through digital media to offer contact service to their customers and thus achieve customer loyalty. 

A few years ago the word Omnichannel began to have a presence in large companies and today it is present in many digital, business and marketing strategies in any type of industry (Retail, Telecommunications, Financial Services, Travel and Tourism, among others). 

But… What is omnichannel? 

While multichanneling consists of the presence of companies in different channels, physical and/or digital, to communicate with their customers, omnichanneling seeks a unified interaction of the different channels. 

The objective of this strategy is to maintain a communication that adjusts to the most convenient medium for the consumer, but that maintains the same experience in all spaces.

To achieve an omnichannel strategy, it is necessary to provide a cohesive experience at every customer touch point, regardless of the channel chosen.

The idea of omnichannel is also to create a pleasant, friendly, close and especially efficient user experience.
