Telecom CX—Improve Service Levels and Net Promoter Score (NPS)
Customer loyalty, please!
Sorry, not all customers like the same experience
In the rapidly changing telecom environment with its low switching costs, excellent customer service is vital to retaining customers and developing profitable customer relationships. Tools like Net Promoter Score (Wikipedia) are being adopted to augment traditional measure of customer satisfaction.
In the telecom industry there are specific challenges in delivering great service:
- Different demands and usage patterns from different customer segments. For instance, teenage consumers are focused on voice, text, and ringtone. The young adult segment, on the other hand, are heavy users of mobile social networks, apps, and multi-media messaging. And older consumers and small businesses tend to be heavy voice-only users.
- Different contact channel preferences among different consumers.
- Different style and language requirements among different segments or geographies.
Consistent answers and commitment to service levels are key to customer satisfaction
