Should be merged with customer service

[edit]

I don't think this is of enough differentiation to customer service to be it's own article. Should be merged with customer service. 86.29.227.98 (talk) 16:43, 29 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Strongly disagree. The two concepts are distinct. A D2C manufacturer's customer support department deals with questions like "where is my shipment" or "the product arrived but I want to initiate a return because by the time it got here, I don't need it any more", while technical support deals with questions like "it arrived and I plugged in the product but it does not work" or "it works but not very well". --Coolcaesar (talk) 00:09, 5 February 2025 (UTC)Reply

Improving citations and neutrality in this article

[edit]

Hello,

I recently made a series of improvements to this article to address the existing maintenance issues (citations needed, neutrality, and possible original research).

Changes made:

  • Added reliable references from academic journals, business reviews, and government advisories (e.g., Journal of Business Research, Harvard Business Review, Federal Trade Commission).
  • Rewrote promotional or vague sentences into neutral, encyclopedic language (e.g., outsourcing benefits, tiered support explanations).
  • Replaced the outsourcing benefits paragraph with a fully sourced, neutral version.
  • Revised Multi-level support, L1, L2, and L3 sections with clearer phrasing and inline citations.
  • Standardized citation formatting (journal, book, news, website templates).
  • Added new references (Refs 13, 14, 15) for outsourcing efficiency, access to expertise, and scam advisories.
  • Inserted wikilinks for key concepts
  • Goal of edits: To improve verifiability, neutrality, and navigation, and to address the article’s maintenance tags.
