N.e.w. Customer Service Companies, Inc company history timeline

1983

1983: The term "call center" is created.

1989

While outsourcing customer service efforts had occurred prior to 1989, it wasn’t until around this time and into the 90’s that this decision was considered a formal customer service strategy.

1992

1992: Customer Service Week established as the first week in October by President George H. W. Bush

1996

By 1996, internet use and instant messaging had grown enough to allow businesses to utilize email and 1-on-1 chat to personally interact with customers once again, cutting out the middle men of IVR and operators of the past.

1998

1998: Jeremie Miller invents Jabber/XMPP, the open-source technology that most live chat is built on, including GTalk, Olark, and others.

1998 LivePerson, now the largest live chat company, launches their service.

1999

1999 Salesforce.com launches and grows to be the global leader in CRM.

2000

The increasing experimentation with software and coding led companies in the late 90’s and early 2000’s to begin implementing customer support through previously independent software and help desk solutions which merged to form modern CRM systems.

Beyond the near continuous improvement of technology and introduction of new strategies, the development of remote desktop support in the late 2000’s allowed customers to not only receive support from contact center agents but allow them to co-browse and personally execute their suggested actions.

2009

2009: Olark creates the first live chat that stays on-page, eliminating the need for the annoying "pop-out." Live chat brings back the immediacy of human interaction to the internet.

2011

Target first outsourced their website as ancillary to Amazon.com, but took it back in 2011 and went through a digital transformation.
