Why JOANN Chose Gladly

JOANN wants to inspire everyone to find their Happy Place with great products, presentation, and service. However, their customer service outside of stores was lacking. They partnered with Gladly to create a responsive, omnichannel solution that supports multiple communication channels, self-service, a consolidated consumer profile, and a single knowledge base.
