1. A Loyal customer is a treasure you should keep and hide from the world
According to White House Office of Consumer Affairs, on average, loyal customers are worth up to
10 times as much as their first purchase. Some research says that it is 6-7 times more expensive to
acquire a new customer than it is to keep a current one. Banks or mobile providers know it best, so
they don’t have any problem with going an extra mile for a customer who is not quite satisfied and
often offer him something special. Not only it is more expensive but also much more difficult to keep
existing and loyal clients (let alone keeping them fully satisfied and happy!) than to gain some new
ones. Take this rule into account while organizing your customer service processes and do your best
to look after them.
Is not rocket science, nowadays clients easily switch their love brands. It is often caused by terrible
customer service. Clients waiting for ages to get feedback or comment from a brand? Unacceptable!
But it still happens. And gaining clients’ trust takes up to 12 positive experiences to make up for one
unresolved negative experience.
You can’t gain customers’ satisfaction for ever, you need to look after them all the time. Try to talk
with them, instead of to them. Ask questions, offer constant support, send personalized messages or
offers, use targeted website surveys, email surveys or any other technique that will help you
communicate with your customers. Take care of each and every of your clients’ need and you’ll be
rewarded with their gratitude and loyalty. Sounds like a good deal, doesn’t it? Brands often take
their audience for granted, and they’ve never been so wrong – one decision, or lack of it, can result
in losing a lot of clients and their respect. That’s why measuring clients’ satisfaction is so important.
It shouldn’t be surprising, but the customer satisfaction is also reflected in your revenue. Customers’
opinion and feelings about the brand can affect, in both positive and negative way, the essential
metrics – such as the number mentions and repeated transactions, and also customer lifetime value
or customer churn. Happy customers won’t look at your competitors offers – they will happily
interact with your brand again, make a purchase and recommend the product further. If you meet all
of their requirements and answer their needs while delivering the best quality of your services, they
will be fully satisfied. Not to mention your brand will increase sales revenue!
Measuring customer satisfaction should become your daily habit – not something you do from time
to time and only if you’re about to face a crisis management. If you don’t know how to do it right,
you can take a look at our guide to measuring customer satisfaction to make things easier.
4. Customer satisfaction is a factor that helps you stand out of the competition
Kate Zabriskie once said that “Although your customers won’t love you if you give bad service, your
competitors will.” and we couldn’t agree more. Your competitive rivals are just waiting for you to
make a wrong move. What is more, they can often play a role of an instigator. Being prepared for
their provocations is not enough if you don’t know how to deal with the negative backlash.
However, if you provide your customers with an amazing customer service, you will gain arguments
to convince those uncertain of your services.
5. Great customer experience can take your brand places
The importance of customer satisfaction should never be neglected. You should consider it
especially while planning your marketing and positioning campaigns. Satisfied customers are more
likely to share your content across the social media. They will also more keenly interact with your
posts, leaving some delightful and admirable comment
