Why is Customer Care Important for a Business?
It's a no-brainer — to ensure that customers are happy and satisfied. And happy customers drive growth, sustainability and reinforce finances. But you knew that already. We'll tell you WHY businesses need to prioritize customer support in this day and age.
- Customer service is parallel to revenue: Studies say that companies prioritizing customer service report an increase in revenue.
- Good customer service equals happy customers: This builds the company's reputation and attracts investors and talented employees.
- Customer retention spikes if customer service is excellent.
- Customer service has a direct impact on CLTV (Customer Lifetime Value). CLTV is the amount of money the customer directs towards a company throughout their engagement. A dedicated customer care team focuses on engagement. It is understood that highly engaged customers buy more frequently and spend more on their transactions.
- Highly engaged customers result in better ratings. This has an effect on customer care employees' ratings which helps them amass bonuses and incentives. In short, the employee happiness meter spikes resulting in more productivity and employee retention.
- The care that is given to customers also has a direct impact on company culture. Employees are more engaged with each other and collaborate seamlessly to solve problems.
- Adobe-par customer satisfaction and service improves brand awareness through word of mouth advertising.
- Additional spend on marketing also lessens. The loyal customers act as brand advocates saving advertising and marketing funds that the business would've otherwise used to generate leads.
- Resources can be reserved or redirected for other important tasks. A satisfied customer will report bugs and inconsistencies in your product. This task of bug reporting is thereby partly handled by the customers which free resources.
- Customer service helps companies generate more revenue, understand their market value, and efficiently scale up or down.
