Why we have been nominated?

We have been nominated for our ‘Client Connect’ system.

Transparency with our customers is a key value of O’Brien Media and Client Connect allows us to have just that!

It allows us customers to see anything related to their account – from their current balance, their helpdesk tickets and downloading invoices – customers can do all this without having to speak to one of the team! (Even though we of course love speaking to you!)

What Chris, our Head of Design and Development, has to say on our nomination!

“I’m overjoyed that we’ve been shortlisted as finalists in for our Client Connect system – it’s a true team effort and I’m proud that our team’s commitment has been recognised in this way. 

Our approach to transparency in everything we do for our customers, and potential customers, is something that’s a core part of our business, and Client Connect forms a key part of this commitment.

Client Connect connects our customers to every member of our team, and every transaction, support request, quote, estimate, and services that are billed regularly – ensuring our customers know exactly what has happened, and will be happening, on their account without the need to give us a call or send us an email.”
