Minimise Customer Effort to Increase Loyalty & Reduce Costs

Improve the customer experience by identifying and eliminating the drivers of high customer effort within your service system

We Understand Your CX Needs 

Increase Revenue

A five percent reduction in the customer defection rate can increase profits by 25 to 80 percent. (McKinsey)

Reduce Costs


Retaining an existing customer is 6-7 times cheaper than the cost of acquiring a new one. (Bain & Company)

Drive Loyalty


A typical company receives around 65 percent of its business from existing customers. (McKinsey)

Build Trust

67% agree “a good reputation may get me to try a product, but unless I come to trust the company behind the product, I will soon stop buying it.” (Edelman Trust Barometer 2019)

Optimise Customer Journeys

Seven out of 10 customers, who switch to a competitor, do so because of poor service. (McKinsey)

Measurable ROI

 Establishing the financial linkage between investment and increased customer lifetime value

CEB/Gartner maintain that organisations that create a low-effort service experience are the most successful at building customer loyalty.   

Their research indicates that effort is the best transactional loyalty metric for the customer service organisation, serving as an excellent leading indicator of customer intent to repurchase and increase spend, as well as actual word of mouth.

It is also extremely effective at driving out costs and inefficiencies.

We Understand Your CX Challenges

Time

Traditional customer research projects can take weeks, if not months

Budget

There is always the constant pressure to do more with less

Other KPIs

Other performance metrics, such as CSAT & NPS, serve well as measurement tools but lack the clarity and insight to drive action

Resource

Analysts are always maxxed-out – you have to take your turn in the queue

Data

Organisations are drowning in data but struggle to extract true value from it

Data-Driven Decisions

Weak insight compromises effective decision-making

In addition to the above challenges, we’ve also got omni-channel insights that we need to build into the equation. But, by focusing on customer effort, we can help you alleviate each and every one of these challenges.

How and where can you reveal customer effort? The evidence is hidden, in plain sight, within email-trails, webchat transcripts, support tickets, call transcripts, survey verbatims, online reviews, complaints, etc.

We pull all of this data together and run it through our DeepDive CX-Insight engine to deliver timely, actionable intelligence.
