People perceive these ticket solutions as helpdesk solutions (I have a problem), however they can also be used to track enquiries (Airline booking enquiry) – especially when there is a set customer response time.

Give customers an email address that is specific to a product (for example [email protected]), specific to them ([email protected]), or a generic email address ([email protected]). These emails are captured within Zoho Desk so an agent or group of agents can take ownership and resolve the query. When a customer emails, or a case is updated, or closed a templated automatic email can be sent to the customer. This provides reassurance to your customer that there support query is being dealt with.

Allow your customers access to the customer service portal or track the progress of their tickets. Build a knowledge base so that customers can search for a resolution themselves. Convert tickets with resolutions to answers within the portal. Zoho Desk has a self service portal which can become part of your web presence (small extra cost for a security certificate).
