Why you need customer opinions
And how Tellody can help you collect and evaluate your audience feedback.
Customer feedback is information provided by customers about whether they are satisfied or dissatisfied with a product or service and about their general experience with your company.
You run your own business and you are doing your best to please your customers, satisfy their needs and eventually keep them loyal to your brand. But how can you be sure that your efforts are bringing back the desired results? If you do not get any real life feedback on what your own customers actually think about your service, you will never be able to offer them the customer service you are aiming for.
Customer opinions is gold. They are based on actual experience and this is the most valuable information you can use in order to adjust your business to fit their needs accurately. Listening to their voice creates stronger relations and significantly lowers retention. This is the best way to gain valuable brand ambassadors, people who will spread positive word-of-mouth for you.
Taking advices to heart is by far the most effective loyalty strategy
Lets have a look on how collecting feedback can dramatically improve your business.
Let them know you care
Collecting feedback shows that you value customer opinions. By asking your clients to fill in a survey you communicate that they are important to you. By involving them into the process of shaping your business they feel close and attached to your company.
Fix what is not working
Improving the customer experience should be your main reason for gathering feedback. When you have the insights on what your customers really want, you can create consistent, personalised journeys. With unique experiences it is easier to stand out from your competitors. People will remain loyal, retention levels will drop.
Increase loyalty and lowers retention
If you let them know you care, fix what is not working, reward the satisfied and apologize to the not satisfied, then increased loyalty is the outcome.
Keep the finger on the pulse by requesting customer feedback regularly. If a customer becomes frustrated he/she may cancel his/hers contract or stop doing business with you. By listening to your unhappy customers, you can use the feedback to ensure that everyone is having a better more satisfying experience and will continue doing business with you.
