How to Slash Your Support Ticket Volume by 60% with AI
Is your support inbox overflowing? The truth is, most of those tickets are likely the same 5 questions asked over and over again. This is "ticket fatigue," and it kills productivity. Here is the strategy to deflect those tickets before they ever reach your team.
The Hidden Cost of Repetitive Tickets
The Concept of "Deflection"
Deflection isn't about ignoring customers—it's about solving their problems instantly so they don't need to email you. When a customer gets an immediate answer to their question, they're happier AND your team has one less ticket to process.
The key is providing self-service that actually works. Traditional FAQ pages fail because they're hard to navigate and don't understand natural language. AI changes this.
The Old Way vs. The AI Way
❌ The Old Way
- 1. User visits your FAQ page
- 2. Scrolls through dozens of questions
- 3. Can't find the answer (wrong wording)
- 4. Gets frustrated
- 5. Emails support
- 6. Waits 24-48 hours for response
- 7. Agent spends 5 minutes on a simple answer
✅ The AI Way (DocMind)
- 1. User asks question in natural language
- 2. AI scans your entire knowledge base
- 3. Delivers precise, instant answer
- 4. User is satisfied
- 5. Ticket is never created
