How Zoho Desk contributes to the art of savings

Remember the first time your grandmother gave you cash for a birthday or New Year's gift, Christmas gift, or any special day? You probably tucked that money safely into a piggy bank, waiting for the day you could buy something precious or something you had been longing for. Each time friends or relatives gifted you money, you made sure to collect it in that little treasure chest. Without even realizing it, then, we were learning the importance of saving money wisely.
From childhood, we’ve been taught to save money, time, resources, relationships, and all the good things that make life meaningful. Saving allows us to preserve beautiful memories and moments, to sustain the joy of living, and to build a secure future. This post is about the thoughtful savings we make. Let’s take a closer look at World Thrift Day.


What is World Thrift Day about?

World Thrift Day, also known as World Savings Day, is celebrated internationally on October 31, 2025, while India observes it on October 30, 2025. The day promotes awareness about the importance of saving finances, which helps individuals, the economy, and businesses. The concept of organized savings gained global importance after World War I, when people realized the need to build financial reserves for stability and progress. Saving money is not only vital for personal financial security but also for strengthening a nation’s economy and helping businesses remain agile and resilient.

Why talk about World Thrift Day at Zoho Desk?

      • Tip #1: Learn to pick the right channels

        Mail, live chat, telephony, social media, web forms—there are so many support channels out there. Trying to pick the right channels to offer your customers can get pretty confusing. Emails are most useful when the customer wants to put things on record. However, escalated or complicated issues should not be resolved over email because it's slow and impersonal.  When you need immediate responses, live chat is more suitable. It's also quick and convenient, so it's the go-to channel for small issues.
