Download or read book Customer Satisfaction Research Management written by Derek R. Allen and published by Quality Press. This book was released on 2004-02-11 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Successful organizations have shifted from being product-based organizations to customer-based organizations, and customer satisfaction management (CSM) is an integral aspect of this new way of thinking. Successfully measuring customer satisfaction can be complicated and very detailed, requiring a great deal of in depth research and analysis. Customer Satisfaction Research Management is intended for advanced service quality managers and marketing researchers involved in the management of customer satisfaction programs. This is the third book in a series by author Derek Allen, focusing on customer satisfaction measurement, analysis, and implementation. Allen begins with the assumption that the reader has at least a minimal familiarity with the psychometric aspects of customer satisfaction measurement, statistical analysis, and linkage research that attempts to establish a causal relationship between customer attitudes and business outcomes. He then builds on this base to first discuss the theoretical relationship between customer satisfaction and financial performance, and then to dive deep into specific applications of customer satisfaction programs. Some of the areas covered include dealing with the challenges of conducting global customer satisfaction measurement programs, linking performance metrics to management compensation systems and financial outcomes, and results deployment. "This book will prove an invaluable resource for research managers charged with developing and implementing customer satisfaction research programs for their organization." Albrecht (Al) Grabenstein First Vice President, Corporate Marketing Comerica "This book describes with outstanding examples how insights gained from deep analysis of customer satisfaction research results can be used to create successful customer relationship marketing strategies and to design effective business processes which improve both customer satisfaction and business results."

Download or read book Capturing Loyalty written by John A. Larson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2017-09-15 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by two highly successful business coaches and management consultants, this book explains how to improve profitability by focusing on turning a business's already satisfied customers into highly satisfied customers by removing their sense of risk. The authors also provide a fail-safe method for identifying the risks inherent in your business. Every business owner or manager knows that creating satisfied customers is key to establishing customer loyalty and building a business. But many are applying the wrong strategy in trying to achieve customer loyalty: instead of focusing on consistent execution of the company's value proposition on a day-to-day basis, they waste their efforts constantly chasing after new customers or trying to address every complaint. Using research to demonstrate how striving to turn merely satisfied customers into highly satisfied customers significantly affects loyalty behaviors and in turn boosts profits, Capturing Loyalty lays out a new approach to a very old problem. Additionally, it presents a blueprint for identifying the perceived risks to consumers inherent in your business—many of which are not readily apparent to the casual or even invested observer—and explains how to minimize those risks. Authors Larson and McClellan explain why trying to ensure 100% customer satisfaction is not the path to achieving customer loyalty, and that the reality is that customer dissatisfaction is rarely the result of an error a business has made—two concepts that many initially find counterintuitive. You'll learn how to offer your company's products and services in a manner that creates highly satisfied customers, understand the true value and vast economic benefits of having highly satisfied customers, and see why highly satisfied customers are actually cheaper to serve than others. The book presents a clear and comprehensive plan for creating a loyalty initiative suitable to your business and cascading it through your entire organization, from the C-suite to the line employees.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demonstrates in a simple and straightforward way the process of discovering the attributes that are important to your customers, measuring their satisfaction with an unbiased survey instrument, analyzing that data, and then doing a statistical analysis to determine the best approach to improving the low-rated attribute(s) and implementing change that has a higher probability of improving customer loyalty.

Download or read book Beyond the Ultimate Question written by Bob E. Hayes and published by Quality Press. This book was released on 2009-05-04 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Business growth depends on more than asking a single question. Challenging the widely touted Net Promoter Score (NPS) claims, author Bob E. Hayes provides compelling evidence that, to grow their business, companies need to look beyond this simple question to efforts on improving the entire customer feedback program (CFP). First, customer loyalty consists of three components, advocacy, purchasing, and retention, each providing unique and useful information regarding future business growth. By measuring these three components of customer loyalty, companies will be better able to manage their customer relationships to maximize growth through new and existing customers. Second, because of the diverse business practices companies can employ with respect to their CFPs, there are hundreds of different ways a company can structure its particular program. Some companies have top executive support for their programs while others do not. Some companies integrate their customer feedback data into their daily business processes while others keep them separate. Some companies use customer feedback results as part of their employee incentive programs while other companies rely on more traditional incentive programs. Still some companies conduct in-depth customer research using their feedback data while others rely on basic reporting of their customer feedback data for their customer insight. But are there critical elements of a customer feedback program that are absolutely necessary for its success? Can a company exclude some elements from its program without adversely impacting its effectiveness? How important are certain components in increasing customer loyalty? This book answers these questions. It is a direct result of the author’s scientific research and professional experience in the field of customer satisfaction and loyalty. This book represents the first scientific study that has tried to identify the best practices of customer feedback programs. Hayes formally collected information from many CFP professionals regarding how they structure their CFPs, and identified specific CFP practices that lead to higher levels of customer loyalty. Additionally, he worked first-hand with employees from Microsoft, Oracle, Harris Stratex Networks, Akamai, and American Express Business Travel in gathering insights and case studies to illustrate how to build a world class CFP. Learn why companies should look beyond the NPS as the ultimate question and learn how to design an effective CFP that will help improve the customer experience, increase customer loyalty, and, ultimately, drive business growth. For those unfamiliar with CFPs, the appendices provide detail on methods used in the main body of the book: a discussion on methods of determining customer requirements (those elements of your business that are important to your customers), a complete discussion on how to write survey questions, and brief discussions on particular statistical analysis methods that can help you understand how customer feedback data are analyzed.
