Challenge

Body Align wanted to alleviate the support ticket burden on their customer service team, and hopefully get more sales from AI.

Solution  

The AI reduced the workload on their customer service team by up to 90%, generated more sales, and increased AOV.

Results  

Body Align got a 16x ROI and increased AOV by 41%. And during the first two weeks of Rep’s implementation, the AI generated $16,000 in additional sales.

Intro

As technology becomes a more intricate part of our lives, Body Align stays committed to keeping people safe from potential harms. Founded on a mission to enhance optimal health through the synergy of frequencies, light, and an active lifestyle, Body Align remains dedicated to providing top-tier products that reflect their unwavering commitment to quality and care.

Challenge: Reduce support tickets — can you also sell?

Body Align needed to reduce the burden on customer service. They tried other chatbots in the past, but nothing met expectations. Any sales the AI could generate would be a bonus.

Solution: An all-in-one support and sales AI for Shopify

Customer Service Boost

Rep’s first test was to reduce the customer service workload. It accomplished a 90% reduction in support tickets.

"I think it's reduced our customer service by probably 90% or more," remarked Andy Loy, Body Align’s Operations Manager.

"It could be even more, which I found amazing," Andy acknowledged, referencing how with human intervention and AI training, it could actually be more.

Unexpected Sales Boost  

While customer service help was the primary goal, the AI began to drive in more sales. Andy revealed, "I think during the first two weeks with us, Rep brought in an extra $16 grand."

Support with a Human Touch  

The Generative AI, powered by ChatGPT, was more than just a chatbot; it was like a team member, handling customer interactions with detail and care similar to its human counterpart.

41% increase in AOV and 16x ROI

"Average order value was like eighty-five to ninety dollars. And now it's like around $120,” according to Andy. That’s a 41% increase, and it continues to rise."

The ROI achieved went beyond his expectations. "I think last time I looked, it was like, 16x ROI," Andy stated, pointing to the substantial return on investment. "It's amazing how well Rep’s worked. It's a dream come true, really," Andy shared.

Conclusion  

Body Align's journey with Rep started with a focus on customer service but unfolded to other areas of the business. The reduced customer service workload, coupled with the unexpected increase in sales and AOV, highlights Rep’s true value to Body Align’s business going forward.

“Most surprising would probably be the average order value going up and the upselling. I did not expect it to be that high—it just keeps going. Like, the smarter the bot gets, it knows how to deal with customers better every time."

Challenge

Vush couldn’t keep up with the influx of pre-purchase questions from self-love newbies

While there’s no shame in the self-love game, Vush found that people had questions before dropping a hundred bucks on a sex toy. Nervous newcomers were keen to find out more about the brand’s products, like how they worked and what they were good for, which led to an influx of pre-purchase tickets that put a lot of pressure on the support team.

While the team was keen to help, it was impossible to answer every query in real-time. This killed the moment and shoppers lost their nerve, leading to a drop in conversions. What’s more, shoppers didn’t always feel comfortable reaching out to a live agent to discuss the intimate details of their bedroom antics, which left Vush looking for a delicate, on-demand solution.

The Solution

On-demand education and support for nervous, first-time buyers

Vush partnered with Rep AI to tackle both pre- and post-purchase questions with the goal of reducing the customer service team’s workload. Discrete education was top of the to-do list, and the brand used Rep to guide shoppers to relevant blog posts and research. With self-select options that include further reading on sexual wellness, customer care, reviews, and a product match quiz, shoppers are given the reassurance and confidence they need to make a purchase.

And, if the query requires a human touch, Rep’s integration with Gorgias seamlessly moves the conversation to a real agent for extra special care and attention. Vush has strategically customized its chatbot to deliver short answers and direct shoppers to relevant blog posts where they can explore more information about Vush’s mission and products. Perhaps the biggest draw is that Rep can identify shoppers who’ve shown an interest but are too shy to take the plunge.

“Implementing Rep has really helped us broach people when it looks like they’re exiting. We can put forward a couple of options and they have the choice to say hey, I’m a beginner, or I need some education, so we can help them embrace their journey and stay on site for longer until they feel comfortable enough to buy,”

says Fiona Scrymgeour, Marketing Director for Vush.

We get a lot of tickets coming through. Rep actually helped us get down to what it really is that each individual person needs. There's been a definite drop in customer support tickets.

Results

Increased conversions, fewer tickets, and satisfied customers

By automating common customer questions, Vush managed to reduce the workload of the support team and provide a better in-the-moment experience. Traffic to blog posts has shot up almost four times, and an increasing number of customers are satisfied with the experience, leading to a 10% increase in CVR. Implementing Rep has revealed a secondary benefit too.

The solution has not only increased sex toy sales, but it’s also educating new pleasure seekers and giving shoppers the confidence they need to buy extremely personal products—a win-win for Vush, whose ultimate mission is to break down the taboo of self-love talk.
