Voice is set to be the new mobile. Like smartphones did more than a decade ago, voice interfaces are changing the rules of when and how consumers interact with brands. By 2022, 55% of U.S. households will have at least one smart speaker.
How can organizations leverage this boom? Today, most are struggling to make voice a valuable part of their customer experience — only 6% of users remain active on a voice app in the second week after downloading it. To boot, more than 900 skills have a one-star rating in the Amazon store. These poor ratings are driving customers away, making it more difficult to gain customer loyalty.
As trusted Alexa testing providers, Applause and Bespoken have emerged as experts in voice testing. Watch the webinar to find out the keys to driving five-star skill ratings with in-the-wild testing and automation.
