When we start an intimate discussion with your customers, prepare to be surprised.
Many businesses struggle to get a firm grasp on what it is precisely about their sales proposition that their customers truly value, which is quite understandable – it’s a complex area. Conducting research into your customers’ perceptions of your service is enormously rewarding though. The lessons learned can inform your operations, your product and service design, your sales and marketing.
Remember that examining your customers’ perception of your value is not the same thing as evaluating their levels of satisfaction. Customer satisfaction is based on your customers’ perception of whether you lived up to their expectations… “We expected rubbish, you were rubbish, yes, we’re satisfied!” Remember the attention you spent when you were last coerced into completing a customer satisfaction form at a hotel or conference. Do you want to plan your business based on that quality of information?
Your customers will tell us things about their experience with your business that they wouldn’t dream of telling you or your account managers.
How could you use information like this?
“When CPV examined what we thought what was our unique selling proposition by talking to our customers we were staggered. It turned out we didn’t really understand what it was they like about our service at all. Now we do know, it’s a lot easier to make them happy.” – BG, Managing Director
