Role Overview
We’re hiring for a fully remote, entry-level Text-Based Customer Support Agent position on behalf of a growing client in the software and digital services industry. This job pays $25–$35 per hour and is structured entirely around chat and email communications—no phone calls, video meetings, or technical jargon required. Applicants from all backgrounds are welcome to apply, and no college degree or prior customer service experience is necessary. Training is paid and conducted remotely. This role is ideal for anyone looking for a stable and flexible work-from-home position in a non-voice environment.
The Client & What You’ll Be Doing
Our client is a subscription-based platform with a focus on digital tools for personal development, online productivity, and membership services. They support tens of thousands of users globally and are expanding their chat-based customer support department. As a support agent, you’ll communicate directly with users to resolve technical issues, billing problems, account questions, and platform navigation concerns. Every interaction will take place through written communication using their in-house dashboard tools. You’ll be provided with standard responses, access to internal documentation, and support from a senior agent—so even if this is your first support job, you won’t be alone.
Primary Job Tasks
- Respond to customer queries submitted through live chat widgets embedded on the client’s website or mobile app. Most messages are related to subscriptions, password resets, or platform access.
- Write thoughtful and clear email responses to inquiries submitted via the client’s support form, maintaining a response window of 24 hours or less.
- Search and update customer records using internal CRM tools to verify account ownership, change preferences, or resolve billing requests.
- Adapt prewritten messages to fit the tone and context of each individual customer interaction while following internal brand guidelines.
- Escalate complex or sensitive issues (such as failed transactions or user complaints) to tier-two support with detailed notes.
- Flag unusual behavior or system bugs through internal tools, alerting supervisors and helping the technical team prioritize fixes.
- Contribute to a smooth workflow by labeling and organizing tickets properly and handing off items that require different time zones.
- Review internal documentation each week to stay up to date on newly added features, promotions, or updates to existing processes.
- Participate in short written coaching sessions to review your ticket tone, resolution speed, and grammar accuracy.
- Collaborate asynchronously with your team to streamline replies and share new insights from frequent user questions.
- Maintain security protocols for data handling and authentication by following script flows and privacy policies exactly.
- Submit a daily recap log that summarizes your completed work, ongoing tickets, and suggestions for system improvement.
