7-Eleven has announced it will be overhauling its customer experience. It has launched the ServiceNow customer service management platform to offer immediate multi-channel customer support through the enterprise.
"Two agents from our call center had to go through 1,300 separate pieces of information a day and try to distinguish what was customer feedback or a request for help — it was like trying to find ping pong balls in a box that was 90 percent golf balls," Jerry Campbell, head of 7-Eleven's customer experience, said in the above CS News article.

Restaurants
Travel Center Chains Are Reopening Their Restaurants with Lots of Modifications
Travel centers, like most restaurants, have started reopening their restaurants, but with modifications. That includes limiting seating inside the restaurant and smaller menus.
"We're limiting our menu choices and I think that's a good discipline going forward," Jon Pertchik, CEO of TA, told FreightWaves in the above CS News article. "We have menus at our Country Pride and Iron Skillet [restaurants] that have something like 67 and 72 or 77 items. A lot of the items just never sell, and we need to have the prep. We need to have the storage."
