Transforming Customer Support Into a Seamless In-App Experience

After we built their watch registration platform, Bulova needed to solve a critical customer experience challenge: their support experience was fragmented across email, phone, and outdated web forms. Customers couldn't get help where they needed it most - inside the app.

The Challenge

Bulova's customer support faced several key obstacles:

  • Customers had to leave the app to contact support, creating friction and abandoned support requests
  • No self-service knowledge base meant common questions flooded the support team
  • Support agents lacked context about customer watches and registration history
  • No way to proactively communicate important product updates, recalls, or service reminders

The solution needed to seamlessly integrate with their existing registration platform while reducing support costs and improving customer satisfaction.

What We Built

We developed a comprehensive in-app support system that brings customer service directly into the mobile experience, with context-aware help and real-time assistance.

📚

Smart Help Center

Contextual Self-Service

  • • Product-specific help articles based on registered watches
  • • Searchable knowledge base with categories and tags
  • • Video tutorials and interactive guides

In-App Live Chat

Real-Time Support

  • • Native chat interface with typing indicators and read receipts
  • • Photo sharing for product issues or serial numbers

The Result

The in-app support system dramatically improved customer satisfaction while reducing the burden on Bulova's support team.

From Fragmented to Seamless Support
