Does the word “customer success” even make you cringe? If you say it a lot, you know that even though it feels nice to praise your customers, the “thank you” can feel empty. With that in mind, it’s no surprise that what mattered the most to a customer is providing something of utmost value. In customer experience management, feedback matters.
We conducted research with the relevant sources, such as customers, analysts, and researchers; and designed a dozen customer surveys, with content that combined detailed questions, applications of observable behaviors, and social media in order to improve customer success.
These surveys, along with every piece of content created for customer communication, were then developed to reflect the following customer-centric metrics and insights:
Retention: Is the experience your customers have with your organization consistent with their feelings of a strong relationship?
Customer Satisfaction: How will your organization’s actions enhance your customer’s lifetime value, and will it be worth it for a business with only 100 customers to pay for the lifetime value of one customer?
Sales Opportunities: Do customers leave your business in large numbers because they encounter their best opportunities elsewhere?
Vision: Does your organization have enough leadership clarity, resources, and vision?
Innovation: Are your customers adopting new systems and processes when they realize you don’t offer this feature?
Data-Driven Approach: Is your organization committed to providing the best outcomes for customers with the right data, facts, analysis, and outcomes?
Connections: Do your organization’s customers feel heard, understood, and believed in?
Visionary Leaders: Are your organization’s leaders courageous enough to trust the customer and to think long-term about the future of your brand?
Providers: Do customers perceive your business’s providers as allies or competitors? If you’re new to the concept of customer experience management, or if you’re new to online customer engagement, we have some suggested ways to get started.
We also give you a glimpse of what we’re doing to help other businesses succeed, alongside our customer success centric approach for every page of a blog post.
What if you could create exceptional customer experiences with less effort?
Not possible? Better use existing customer data to offer customer actions that seem more convincing and have better chances of customer satisfaction.
We’ve all had those customer experiences – that annoying, ill-informed person who just won’t make a change despite the experience being horrendous. Or let’s say there are many issues and the issue with each person is different, so to say that there isn’t one right solution is to do a disservice to the customer and it’s customer success metric.
It’s a problem that all businesses face when trying to think of valuable customer insights that can enable better business decisions. Reality check
Research analyst IDC stated that the potential value of a customer experience is $117 for each dollar spent, and a new report by Forrester found that companies with an exceptional customer experience win 73% of their customers back, while losing only 8% of their customers.
They found that in order to create better customer experiences, businesses need to have customer data available to them from the very beginning. More than three quarters of companies surveyed said they had some kind of customer intelligence product and software to collect and analyze customer data and improve customer success.
