The CEO of Ursa Major Solar, Sita Nagappan-Alvarez, was impressed when she learned about Service Cloud’s numerous digital engagement features. Social Customer Service stood out when her rock star administrator, Maria, discussed digital engagement and its objective to create unified customer experiences across several channels and devices. Specifically, Sita is aware that her solar panel business has zero social media presence.
When a business is behind its customers, how can it engage with them? According to Salesforce Research, 78% of customers want a seamless, unified experience across all channels. Sita realizes she’s disappointing 78% of her customers because Ursa Major Solar is only set up with phone and email channels. She essentially gives over her customers—and future customers—to her competition until she adds more digital outlets.
Sita remembers Maria’s description of Salesforce’s digital engagement (for a reminder, see the Digital Engagement module), Social Customer Service:
Allows customer service representatives, sales representatives, and marketers to listen to and reply to customer comments on social media sites like Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, WhatsApp, Instagram, and more.
Social media posts can be converted into cases or leads, allowing agents to join client interactions as they are taking place.
Enables social posts—both incoming and outbound—to appear in case of histories, making it simple to monitor interactions across many social platforms from any device.
It assists agents in offering to make public chats private by tracking client moods and keyword usage.
Directly submit service requests to the Service Console, where agents can change customer-friendly channels at any time.
Brings together the marketing, sales, and customer service departments on social media so they may work together to improve the customer experience.

Service Console and Social Customer Service
Like other channels, Salesforce Social Customer Services is accessible through the Service Console, giving agents a complete picture of each client and their requirements. The virtual help desk console provides a tailored perspective of each customer and their issue to anybody on your support team or your organization.
The console aids agents in effectively resolving several cases at once, regardless of how clients contact them—by phone, email, web chat, chatbots, mobile apps, SMS messaging, Twitter, Facebook, and more.
Customers’ remarks, queries, or inquiries for cases made from social media posts show up directly in the stream. In the Social publisher, consumer interactions take place.
For Social Customer Service to show up in the console, there are no cumbersome integrations or add-ons. Social services are included in the console from the ground up to suit other channels. Customers may use mobile devices to post to social media sites, but agents can still see such messages in the console. Additionally, the Salesforce mobile app allows your agents to view social media posts as cases while on the move. Agents can view social interactions immediately on case records in Salesforce even without using the console or mobile app.
Social Customer Service as well as Social Studio
Social Studio was mentioned when Maria was describing Salesforce Social Customer Services to Sita. How does that relate to the console and social service features? Simple: The engine that enables you to organize, plan, generate, and monitor social postings is called Social Studio. The posts can be arranged in a single interface by brand, location, or several teams and users. Social Studio provides content marketers with real-time posting and interaction, but it was integrated into the Care Cloud platform to expand excellent customer service. Social Studio assists in
