Customer Service is an integral part of the overall Customer Experience. No matter how good your product is, there will be some instances when your customers will need you to serve them well. If you provide a great service to your customers, their overall experience improves to a large extent. Whereas, if you fail to provide satisfaction through your services, it will ruin their overall experience and made them think of switching to other brands.

And that’s where the Web3 phenomenon comes in. What I believe that it might accelerate, is that companies simply won’t have any other choice but to create extra value (on top of product or service) because it will trigger a huge shift in the power relation between the brand and the consumer. And the reason is data, which used to lie in the hands of companies, but will be granted back to the user with Web3: the customer will be able to choose if brands use their data.
