Customer Experience
Understanding the customer experience is vital to the long-term profitability and growth of your enterprise. The quality of customer experience you provide will determine how much sustainable competitive advantage you can enjoy.
Customer Experience Training
- What do your clients need and expect?
- How do consumers feel about your company, products and performance?
- How can you improve customer service training?
TrendSource clients periodically review their customer perceptions along these dimensions to ensure that the gap between service quality delivered and service quality perceived is systematically reduced. TrendSource results help to insure that customer service training is appropriate and effective.
Using intercepts, surveys, and “mystery shops”, TrendSource research focuses on key aspects of service quality including:
- Tangibles (facilities, equipment, personnel, and communications material)
- Reliability (the ability to perform the task dependably and correctly)
- Responsiveness (willingness to help, provide prompt service)
- Assurance (product knowledge, courtesy of employees, trust and confidence)
- Empathy (caring, individualized service).
“…it will not suffice to have customers that are merely satisfied. Satisfied customers switch, for no good reason, just to try something else. Why not? Profit and growth come from customers that can boast about your product or service –- the loyal customer. He requires no advertising or other persuasion and he brings a friend with him.”
