I just had the privilege to chat with a sales support specialists for one of our large book publishers. CCH a Wolters Kluwer business, now gives you an option to ask a question or state a concern via instant message. To me, the process was quicker than emailing customer service and more conducive than waiting on the telephone. Thomson West also has this feature for customers to utilize and I am becoming a fan of this technology in the workplace. |

Anne, having it in writing makes it easier for me to. I suggested that CCH apply the capability to have there chat sessions emailed directly to the customer once the session has ended. West already gives you this option.
