Ad campaigns played a key role in guiding people on how to use the automated tools in the simplest way. The interested users are also given a video demo on how to use the website services in such a way that it fulfills their business requirements in the easiest way. Moreover, the demo videos also tend to provide the best solutions for the business which play a key role in convincing the customer to purchase their service.

Like they provide the best CRM solutions to any business by training them about their automated tools through videos and blogs. They also provide effective 24*7 customer support to fix technical issues for any business. All these factors play a key role in making the customers compel to use their products and services. Well, they have all their effective resources to fulfill the desires of the customers so not many recommendations or improvements are required here as they follow all the actions of this stage very effectively.
- Action: Coming to this stage Zendesk follows a very planned strategy like they provide a one-month free trial to first-time users and also notify the user when the trial is about to expire. So the user can deactivate the service before a month if they do not want the paid subscription. Once the user starts the paid subscription they aim to provide the best business solutions to the customers based on their interests, demographics, and other variables. During the COVID-19 pandemic, this action strategy converted a lot of leads.

They also carry out innovative marketing programs for their loyal customers which plays a key role in boosting customer engagement on social media platforms. This trick played an excellent role in boosting the website subscribers of the company. For more customer engagement they can provide more creative loyalty programs and must also put additional offers on the pricing plan this will play a key role in increasing the loyal subscribers of the website.
