Let’s cover the benefits of great customer service and why you should invest in the customer experience.
What Does The Customer Experience Mean?
The customer experience, also referred to as CX, is essentially your customer’s perception of how your business treats them. CX represents each aspect of what your company offers customers. This, of course, includes the quality of how you treat customers. However, it also includes advertising, packaging, product and/or service, reliability, etc.
When your customers walk away after purchasing your product feeling positive and valued as a customer, you know they had a great customer experience.
Why You Should Invest in The Customer Experience
Regardless of what industry you are in, the customer experience has proven time and time again to have a positive impact on your company. Here is why you should invest in CX:
1. Customer Satisfaction
The most obvious reason to invest in the customer experience? Your customer will be happy.
Treating your customers well, and going above and beyond for them, is an unmatched shopping experience. When your customers feel valued and leave your shop with a smile on their face, they will remember you. (And keep coming back).
2. Customer Retention
Did you know: Acquiring a new customer costs 7 times more than maintaining an existing one.
A positive customer service experience directly correlates with brand loyalty. When you give a new customer an unforgettable experience, they will want to continue shopping with you in the future. Take the time to invest in your existing customers, and you will have loyal customers for life.
3. Increase Revenue
No one wants to spend money with a company that treats them poorly.
And as we said earlier – the customer experience has topped both product and price as a brand differentiator. Customers who receive good customer service are truly willing to spend more for it. Sometimes, regardless of the price.
Another great way to increase brand loyalty, and revenue, is by offering various loyalty programs. This gives loyal customers exclusive deals and reminds them to always be looking out for your alerts and new products!
4. Brand Credibility
In addition to building a meaningful relationship with your customers, CX also increases your brand credibility.
If customers shop with you and rave about your amazing employees and shopping experience, expect positive customer reviews, and for their family and friends to start coming in! CX that sets you apart from your competitors establishes you as a professional brand that also values their customers.
5. Poor CX Leads To Unhappy Customers
Customer expectations are currently at an all time high. If you do not offer customers a positive CX, they will be unhappy.
Your unhappy customers could leave a negative review, or share their experience with those close to them. 72% of customers will share a positive customer experience with at least 6 or more people. However, if a customer is not happy, 13% of them will share their experience with 15 or more.
