Percentage of inbound social media contacts outsourced to a third-party provider
This measure calculates the percentage of inbound social media contacts (i.e. queries initiated by the customer via social media platforms—like Facebook, Twitter, etc.—related to sales, information, technical support, customer service, or complaints) outsourced to a third-party provider. It is part of a set of Supplemental Information measures that help companies evaluate additional variables not covered elsewhere for the "manage customer service requests/inquiries" process.
