Intelligent Customer Support in Consumer Goods: How an AI Chatbot Cut Support Costs by 40%
Learn how Redtag helped a household appliance brand reduce support costs and increase customer satisfaction, without adding agents or losing the human touch.

A Costly Bottleneck in Support
Scaling with more agents wasn’t sustainable. They needed a way to handle growing support demand.
Agentforce to the Rescue
To address the growing support demand, Redtag introduced a tailored, multi-layered solution built around Agentforce — an AI-powered chatbot designed for Salesforce. Integrated with Salesforce Service Cloud and RCA, the setup connected customer support with product, pricing, and order data for a seamless service experience.
Key features implemented:
- AI-powered self-service – Agentforce handled routine queries like user manuals, installation guides, delivery tracking, and warranty checks.
- Smart ticket routing – Complex cases were auto-tagged and routed to specialized teams using Service Cloud workflows.
- Automated quote generation – RCA was connected to service cases, enabling support agents to create upgrade offers and extended warranties on the fly.
- Knowledge article delivery – Agentforce pushed real-time solutions based on KCS articles, reducing reliance on human agents.
The Results: Scalable, Predictable, and Fast
It didn’t take long – by month three, the impact was visible across the board:
- 40% reduction in support costs – Thanks to lower ticket volumes and fewer agent hours.
- 90%+ first-contact resolution for routine queries – Via Agentforce, with a satisfaction score of 4.8/5.
- 3X increase in upsells during support conversations – With automated quotes and bundled offers.
- 50% faster onboarding for new agents – Thanks to unified service data and automated workflows.
Today, the company delivers faster support, happier customers, and more efficient operations across Europe with a leaner, smarter support team and AI that truly understands their products.
