With the cost of customer acquisition representing a major overhead expense, avoiding churn among your client base is crucial to maintaining predictable revenue and growth. Yet, roughly 40% of customers surveyed cited “poor customer service” as the reason they stopped doing business with a specific company, according to Statista, a marketing and consumer data provider.
Typically, customers don’t just “go away mad” without red flags popping up in advance of their departure. While not every unhappy patron will vocalize their dissatisfaction, there are usually abundant warning signs. For example, when a customer problem pops up, is it addressed immediately, or are slow response times creeping in? Are sales staff or account managers struggling to find sufficient time to engage with customers? Is there a standardized process for tracking leads and sales opportunities?
Clearly, such issues can be addressed effectively once they’re identified. However, without a system in place to gather such information and make it available in real time within a dashboard view, isolating and solving customer service hotspots can feel like playing whack-a-mole.
