Episode 10 - Unifying Knowledge Center Content with Scott Abel

Did you know that more people would rather clean a toilet than call customer support? Due to this, combined with the fact that employing a customer support team during a recession is an expensive luxury, many companies are opting to close down their support teams. Instead, they’re shifting their focus to developing knowledge-center content, where customers can find their own answers to their questions. However, does this turn meet all customer needs? How can you make the best knowledge center possible? Are there benefits in maintaining customer support teams?

Join Kevin as he interviews his longtime friend and content industry veteran Scott Abel. They discuss different forms of content that can be housed in knowledge centers, the different purposes that content can be used for, and the changes to knowledge-center content caused by the recent pandemic. They also discuss how personalization can be utilized for that content and how the knowledge centers fit within the entirety of the customer experience.

Known as "The Content Wrangler," Scott Abel is a content strategist who helps companies improve how they author, maintain and deliver information to those needing it. He's co-authored "Intelligent Content: A Primer" and "The Language of Content Strategy" and creator of the Content Strategy Series of books from XML Press.
