A Typical Day in the Role
Morning
You begin your shift by logging into the chat dashboard. A new support ticket comes in asking about a delayed shipment—you respond by checking the customer’s order ID, updating them with the tracking number, and applying a discount code for the inconvenience.
Midday
Chat activity spikes as international customers come online. You help one user troubleshoot login issues, another customer find the right subscription tier, and a third user complete a return—all without leaving your home office. You take a break for lunch, then check your performance metrics and view your positive feedback.
Afternoon
You answer a set of pre-sales questions for a curious customer, provide a how-to article link, and gently upsell them to a bundle. Later, a teammate sends a Slack message asking for help with a template, and you collaborate quickly before wrapping up your final tickets for the day.
