Customer Service Surveys

Is it Time to Re-evaluate How Effective Your Customer Service Really Is?

And, this issue of customer service is not limited only to the U.S. Similar to their American counterparts, a majority of the
consumers in all other countries surveyed felt customer service is the most crucial area for companies in the current
economy. But they were equally concerned about the lack of focus on this key area.
Every company today has one or more ways of providing customer service. So if you are a senior customer service
executive and wondering why all that investment is not yielding results – think again! In my opinion, the reasons for failure
of customer service could be:
Not ‘listening’ to the customer: It’s very important for the agent handling the call to understand what the customer
needs and not just hearing them. This will depend on the quality of the call flow diagrams and on the regular training
provided to the agent. Feedback from internal quality monitoring and customer satisfaction surveys needs to get to the
agents in a timely manner, so that the feedback loop and improvement cycle can work properly.  
Too much emphasis on AHT: Every agent has a target Average Handle Time (AHT) at the contact center, which is
guided by the call flow diagram. If these are not reviewed periodically to ensure that customers are getting enough time
to express their concerns and the data is being captured accurately, then customers will most likely leave dissatisfied.
It is important to put AHT in the proper perspective, as just one of the many measurements in a process. and not a
measure of the true outcome you are trying to achieve when your customers call.  
Lack of innovative approaches in delivering customer service: Most contact centers do not invest in innovative
approaches for keeping customers happy. We believe the contrary. For instance, while managing lost baggage for a
leading airline client of ours, we realized how traumatized customers who were attending some important event would
be, to learn that their baggage was lost. So we began sorting information from the overall lost baggage list to identify
customers who needed to be informed at regular intervals about the status of their baggage, and started sending
proactive alerts to them. The fact that the airline was contacting them before they could, raised the customer
satisfaction levels to newer heights.
Even if you have got all the above right, unless you are able to resolve the pain point of the customer, your customer
service levels will always remain low! An article titled ‘Stop Trying to Delight Your Customers’ by Harvard Business
Review, sums it up well by stating that you can create loyal customers primarily by reducing customer effort, i.e, by helping
them solve their problems quickly and easily, and not by delighting them in service interactions with a robotic greeting or
thank-you!

A surrogate measure of customer satisfaction in the manufacture of Printed Wiring Boards. $108 The objective of this research is to determine and develop a model that is capable of accurately measuring customer satisfaction for different industries and in particularly for the Printed Wiring Boards (PWB) Manufacturers. The new model will incorporate data not being collected or utilized by the survey method of determining customer satisfaction.;The method used is a weighted average of satisfaction among several researched categories with percentages that accurately represent the relative importance of multiple facets of the PWB manufacturers customer satisfaction.;A very common term in quality assurance is that “What is not measured accurately can not be evaluated or managed correctly,” thus customer satisfaction is a very important aspect of any business, industry, or government. A satisfied customer will do more business and recommend it to other potential customers. Thus the business will grow and more revenues result. On the other hand, an unsatisfied customer will abandon the business and encourage more customers not to get involved with the same business so the business may decline and lose its market share and profitability. The categories that contribute to PWB customer satisfaction will be determined by conducting surveys among the leaders and best in the business of the PWB industry in addition to discovery of related articles that define the categories of the customer satisfaction for the PWB manufacturers.;Once the categories are determined, the research concentrates on the weighting of the categories that most contribute to the PWB customer’s satisfaction and a measure of satisfaction is derived. The model is easily applied to any other kind of PWB business or service industry.;The model is based on empirical methods that will give an accurate measurement for the PWB customer’s satisfaction. This in turn allows organizations the opportunity for improving customer satisfaction and increasing market share. The algorithm is based on characteristics

Broken Promises $1.21 Once the world’s most admired corporations, IBM stumbled badly in the early 1990s. At the depth of the crisis, the company suffered its first ever operating loss and eliminated nearly 200,000 jobs. What went wrong? Contrary to popular wisdom, the authors argue that the root cause of IBM’s difficulties was not that it fell behind in technology, but rather that it disregarded its customers and misled its employees. In this book, Mills and Friesen draw on extensive interviews with IBM executives, access to company files, and surveys of the company’s customers to explain why, despite its advantages, IBM’s executives failed to maintain its leadership. The authors show that IBM developed an overly optimistic strategic plan based more on pride than on reality; made a financing decision that eventually crippled its industry-leading marketing franchise; destroyed its long-term relationship with customers, to whom it had guaranteed high-quality product and close service support; broke its implied commitment to employees of lifetime employment security; and executed a massive corporate reorganization that left the subsequent strategic crisis unresolved. Telling the story of IBM’s downfall in the context of the company’s history, the authors also outline the challenges that lie ahead for current leadership, even in the face of IBM’s apparent rebound. Broken Promises is a cautionary tale of strategic miscalculation, managerial error, and a loss of confidence that demonstrates for executives at any large company the risks of neglecting customer and employee relationships in the face of large-scale change.

Sarah Cook draws on her considerable experience of working with European companies to provide a comprehensive action pl

Customer Satisfaction Evaluation: Methods for Measuring and Implementing Service Quality $159 This important new work provides a comprehensive discussion of the customer satisfaction evaluation problem by presenting an overview of the existing methodologies as well as the development and implementation of an original multicriteria method dubbed MUSA (MUlticriteria Satisfaction Analysis). The chief objective of MUSA is the development of a model able to evaluate the level of customer satisfaction both globally and partially for each of the characteristics or attributes of the product or service being considered. Furthermore, the method aims at providing an integrated set of results capable of analyzing customer needs and expectations and to justify their satisfaction level. And finally, the book examines the development of a decision support tool to help understand and apply results.Individual chapters consider the customer satisfaction problem, presenting the various quantitative and related consumer behavioral models; quality-based approaches; the MUSA method and its extensions and advanced topics; customer satisfaction surveys and barometers; applications of the MUSA method in real-world customer satisfaction surveys; and different information technology approaches related to customer satisfaction.Customer Satisfaction Evaluation: Methods for Measuring and Implementing Service Quality is intended for researchers and practitioners in marketing, quality management, service management, and anyone interested in applications of Multicriteria Decision Analysis (MCDA).

Improving Customer Satisfaction, Loyalty, and Profit: An Integrated Measurement and Management System $1.99 Most companies understand that customer satisfaction and loyalty are essential to their success. But few companies know how to link their customer’s needs with their organization’s processes to create the best customer experience possible. Instead, they erect walls between their customer service department and their other organizational functions.Improving Customer Satisfaction, Loyalty, and Profit shows managers how to break down these walls, find out what their customers want, and use that information to produce the kinds of products and services that will keep them coming back.Michael Johnson and Anders Gustafsson have been instrumental in the development of customer satisfaction indexes in the U.S. and Europe. Here they team up to introduce a five-stage process that establishes crucial connections between a company’s marketing, sales, product development, and customer service departments in order to deliver both top-quality products and a high-level customer experience.The process begins with measurement. Johnson and Gustafsson walk readers through the steps necessary to determine a customer measurement strategy, observe and communicate with customers, create formal customer surveys, and process and interpret the survey data. Then they show readers how to use that data to build a cohesive plan for quality improvement and ongoing customer management.By helping mid-level managers assemble specific estimates of how increased quality and customer loyalty will impact the bottom line, their process allows upper-level managers to allocate the resources necessary to build a truly customer-oriented company. And by cementing the links between products, patrons, and profits, their book highlights the core competencies companies need to create both happy customers and the organizational know-how necessary to keep them happy.
