When to get more help addresses Contact reasons you do not want Sidekick to interact with. When Sidekick identifies an inquiry as one of the reasons detailed in this list, the Conversation instantly hands off to an Agent.
The “When to get more help” is made up of three key actions:
[A] View default transfer reasons
[B] Add supplemental transfer reasons
[C] Customize the transfer message sent to Customers when Sidekick hands off
Default transfer reasons
Below is a list of default transfer reasons already included in Sidekick Answers. These items are not removable or modifiable within the When to get more help tile.
The customer is feeling sick because of our products or is injured by our products
The customer is claiming to be an employee of the company
The customer is requesting alteration to the company policy
The customer is threatening legal action
The customer is asking explicitly for a human or an agent
The customer is either requesting or threatening escalation to the CEO, manager, supervisor, or someone who is in a position of authority at the company
The customer is using a non-English language
By default, Sidekick will hand off any Conversation if a Customer asks a question in a non-English language
For more information about multi-lingual support on Sidekick Answers please contact Gladly Support.
Identify need for additional hand off scenarios
As you monitor Sidekick Answers in the first weeks after implementation, you may find that supplemental hand off scenarios should be added to best support your Customers. Use the Sidekick Conversations page to review Sidekick interactions and evaluate Conversations where you would have preferred an Agent to step in.
Take a look at the following areas in particular:
Conversations with Sidekick handed off or Sidekick did not resolve outcomes
These Conversations ended with either a hand off to an Agent, or were passed up by Sidekick all together. Were any of these scenarios ones that Sidekick should have completed?
Consider removing any scenarios outlined in the “When to get more help” section that you would like Sidekick to attempt to engage with.
Conversations that have failed the Hallucination Check
Would an added hand off scenario have helped avoid failing the quality check in any of these instances?
Include additional hand off reasons in the “When to get more help” section so that Sidekick can preemptively hand off any inquiries that may otherwise fail the quality check. This will allow Sidekick to provide Agents with a Handoff Summary and optimize your Sidekick set up.
Not all Hallucination Check failures are best solved by creating more hand off scenarios
