ALEXANDRIA, Va., May 7, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- VIPdesk, an award-winning U.S. based provider of innovative home-based customer care solutions, is excited to announce a partnership with Herff Jones, StageClip and MarchingOrder to deliver premium customer service for their recently launched virtual commencement solution. The solution provides high schools, colleges and universities a proven, easy-to-implement platform to celebrate graduates' achievements in times of the COVID-19 pandemic and social distancing guidelines.

"Our mission is to elevate student experiences, and for many, one of the most anticipated experiences throughout their educational journey is graduation. This year, understandably, that is going to look different; however, that doesn't mean the Class of 2020 shouldn't have their time to shine and to be celebrated with family and friends, those who have helped them reach that milestone," said Herff Jones Vice President of Customer Experience Salena Scardina. "That's why it was so important to us, as well as our partners, StageClip and MarchingOrder, to bring a solution to the table in time for this graduation season. The response has been fantastic and demand very high. That said, we're excited to have the support of VIPdesk, and the caliber of customer service talent they bring to the table, to ensure we provide graduates with the best possible graduation experience."

To best support the demand, Herff Jones contacted VIPdesk to provide a dedicated team to help support customer service for participating schools and universities. This includes assisting with onboarding and ongoing customer service for participants. VIPdesk will utilize its proven home-based customer service setup to deliver a safe and reliable solution from coast to coast. The solution is powered by an innovative omnichannel capable platform provided by BrightPattern and Zendesk. VIPdesk has been a pioneer for home-based customer service where specifically recruited Brand Ambassadors serve as customer service professionals for some of the most admired brands in the US. Given the current mandated stay-at-home orders and the risks of operating large call centers in times of a pandemic, VIPdesk's services have never been more relevant.

"We are really proud to assist Herff Jones and their partners Stage Clip and Marching Order with delivering memorable virtual graduations. I know that graduations are some of the most important milestones in life and we are honored to provide that extra care and support to families to ensure their new experience is as special as it can be." - Sally Hurley, CEO, VIPdesk.

MarchingOrder President Tyler Mullins explains his mission: "Years of experience in the graduation field have taught us how meaningful these events are for students, families, and the schools themselves. Our mission has been to help make each person's moment as perfect and memorable as it can be, and we are fortunate to be able to use our knowledge and tools to help ensure that even though unexpected events prevent in-person ceremonies from happening at this time, the accomplishments of the Class of 2020 do not go unheralded. There will be no true replacement for a traditional ceremony, but our hope is to help bring some joy and a feeling of accomplishment to the students that have worked very hard to graduate this year."

"We're delighted to be part of this relationship with Herff Jones and MarchingOrder and look forward to serving schools and graduates at this challenging time. The support from VIPdesk will help us improve the experience for all." - Rupert Forsythe, founder and CEO of StageClip.
