You might think you aren’t a big enough company to have a customer support solution on your website or that adding help desk software.
would be out of your budget. This was completely true before Wix Answers.

There are five main elements of Wix Answers:
- Knowledge Base: As a business owner, no one knows your business better than you. This part might be the most time consuming because translating all the details about your business and the questions you innately know the answers to onto paper can be hard, but once you do this, you won’t have to start from a blank piece of paper again. You can create and manage your tutorials, guides, FAQs and more in one place. This way, your customers can find answers to questions and read helpful articles all within your help center. Creating a stand-alone article is as easy as publishing a blog post with Wix Answers. Plus, you will be able to see exactly what articles your customers ask for and what articles need improvements.
- Ticketing System: You might not think you have enough incoming questions to warrant a ticketing system, but you shouldn’t overlook this option. This is an easy way to have all of your customer questions in one place even if the question originally came over the phone or from Facebook. You can answer all of your customer questions through the Wix Answers platform. You can also label and track each ticket for reference and internal communication.
- Call Center: Sometimes the easiest way to get an answer is by picking up the phone and making a call to talk to someone. The downside is you might not be available when that call comes in. With Wix Answers you can have your very own customer service call centerwith an 800 number. Customers can also request a call back at a time that works better for you.
- Support Widget: You can easily embed a widget into any part of your website to give customers access to your knowledge base articles, tutorials and directly link to your ticketing system. This lets customers easily see how they can reach you with questions or concerns. They won’t have to scroll to the end of the page or hunt and peck risking the customer giving up.
- Actionable Insights: This is the most exciting feature available in Wix Answers. You’re collecting data on what your customers want, need and have questions about. These insights will let you see ticket response times, customer satisfaction ratings and trends in the support experience from the customer side. You can use these insights to make changes to improve your relationship with your customers, track your business progress and made business decisions based on data instead of just intuition.
