Customer Service Vs Customer Experience.pptxQuickmetrix
Customer experience (CX) encompasses the overall perception and interaction a customer has with a brand throughout their entire journey. It involves every touchpoint and interaction a customer has with a company, including pre-purchase, purchase, and post-purchase stages. Customer experience focuses on the emotions, feelings, and overall satisfaction of the customer.
2. Financial bonds
Lower prices for greater volume purchases
Low prices for loyal customers, attractive discounts
Frequent Flier programs
Drawbacks
Price is a prime driver, differentiation is not unique.
3. Social bonds
Long term relationships
Very effective
Interpersonal skills
Lawyers, Doctors, Counsellors, tax consultants
4. Caterpillar Corporation
World’s largest manufacturer of mining,
construction and agriculture heavy equipment
Engineering and product quality are superior
Company attributes much of its success to strong
dealer network and product support services
CEO , David Fites, contends that knowledge of local
market and close relation with customers & dealers
is invaluable.
5. Our dealers are business leaders in their service
territories who are deeply involved in community
activities and are committed to living in the
area.Their reputation and long term relations help to
sell our products.
Another example is Harley Davidson motor cycles –
Groups are involved in biking tours and rallies.
6. Customization Bonds
More customised services
Eg. Tailors, Saloons.
Mass customization – use flexible processes to
produce customized services at price of standardized
mass produced alternatives
7. Customer is not always right !
Not all relationships are beneficial.
Every customer is not right all the time
Tour operators – customers experience the service
together and can influence each other’s perceptions
about value received
Discontinue relation if customer segments are not
profitable in the long run
8. Difficult customers
Dysfunctional customers
Customers from hell
Problem customers
Example : Drunk customers in a flight or a bank.
Such customers affect employees, other customers and
the organization as a whole.
9. Some consultants do work for clients in the
expectation that order will be received, but if it
doesn’t happen, they may have to politely decline
10. Relationship Ending
Firm moves location
Customer moves location
Customer not fulfilling the obligation example –
bank customer not maintaining a minimum balance
or policyholder has not paid the premium, so
insurance policy has lapsed.
Relationship has to be ended carefully to avoid
negative publicity or negative word-of-mouth.
Prices are raised or free services are charged to move
unprofitable customers out of the company.
11. If customer is too demanding, relationship may be
salvaged by negotiating expectations or finding an
efficient way to serve the client.
12. IMPORTANT
Customers who were satisfied with a firm’s recovery
efforts talked to an average of 7 people.
Those customers who were dissatisfied with the
response talked to an average of 25 people.
13. Different types of complainers
Passives – do not complain at all.
Voicers – actively complain to service provider, but
give the company a second chance.
Irates – consumers more likely to engage in negative
word of mouth communication with friends and
relatives ; they are likely to switch to a competitor.
Activists – they complain on all dimensions – they
complain to provider, will tell others, complain to
third parties. In extreme cases, these consumers can
become terrorists.
14. If a firm does nothing about service failure, 86%
customers are dissatisfied with the response.
When a firm provides an apology, % of dissatisfied
customers drops to 20%.
If you provide customers an opportunity to vent out
their frustration, customer dissatisfaction reduced to
33%
15. Customers look for fair treatment
Outcome fairness – outcomes that match their level
of dissatisfaction eg, compensation
Procedural fairness – fairness in terms of policies,
rules, timeliness of the complaint process
Interactional fairness – customers expect to be
treated politely with care and honesty.
Service recovery has to happen as quickly as
possible.
