How an Assessment Drives Brand Loyalty and Operational Effectiveness
In today’s marketplace, companies must compete for customer relationships. Those relationships are often influenced by the experiences customers have when they interact with companies. Through our own research, we have found that businesses consistently underperform in providing exceptional experiences. This usually leaves brands vulnerable to high costs, unhappy customers and loss of brand loyalty. The stakes have never been higher, and this is exactly when companies can benefit from an outside-in perspective.
Options to Meet Your Needs
Single Engagement
Northridge can support clients with one-time engagements that provide an assessment of their current state customer service experience along with a detailed series of recommendations for improvement. These projects are often followed by engagements which assist in program managing the implementation of those recommendations to ensure the program execution achieves the desired outcomes.
Managed Service
Some clients engage Northridge as a third party, with an outside-in view, to provide a managed service for monitoring their customer service, with reporting that identifies key business insights and agent coaching opportunities.
