Self Service - Wikipedia
Self-service is used on the phone, web and email to facilitate
customer service interactions using automation.
7
Proactivity - Wikipedia
Proactivity refers to anticipatory, change-oriented and self-initiated
behavior in situations, particularly in the workplace. Proactive
behavior involves acting in advance of a future situation, rather than
just reacting. It means taking control and making things happen,
rather than adjusting to a situation or waiting for something to
happen.

Self Service
Grows the fastest where the competition is the most intense
Provides the greatest benefit where the volume is high
Works best where it provides a win - win situation (seller-buyer)
