Consider a Salesforce organization without the  live message. The customers need to call customer service agents and  need to wait for the agents to attend the call. It consumes too much time and the customer decides to end the call. Obviously, agents can take only one call at the time. It reduces the productivity of the agents.

If the organization used live message in the org, customers can solve the query using Facebook and SMS application. communication between the customers and agents are bidirectional. It will reduce the phone traffic and customers get answers for their questions using messaging app instead of phone. Messaging has 8x better response rate compare to that of email queries.

Conclusion:

It is obvious that live message would be useful to stay focused on solving the customer queries using messaging app. Also, the Messaging session is cheaper compared to that of phone call. Agents can handle multiple messaging conversation at a time, and It increases the productivity of the agents.
