Using Satisfaction Surveys to Improve Customer Retention

Friday, February 6, 2009 by Cvent Survey Staff
In a struggling economy, high customer retention is critical to your organization's success. A surefire way to improve and maintain your customer retention is to offer great customer service. After all, keeping customers satisfied with your support services increases loyalty and makes them want to stick around.

Web based surveys are an easy, efficient way to gauge customer satisfaction. User surveys can easily be implemented by sending a quick email survey invitation to customers after each customer service call you receive. You know you're reaching customers who had a need for customer service, so a follow-up survey invitation is a great way to capture their thoughts immediately after receiving assistance.

Customer service satisfaction surveys sound like a fit for your business? Here's the catch: some survey companies only allow respondents to submit questionnaires one time. That means users reaching out to customer support more than once—whether for related or unrelated issues—can only give their input and respond to user satisfaction surveys once. You'll never know if their satisfaction level stays the same or changes, and why.

Recognizing this problem, Cvent's online survey tool allows for multiple responses from the same respondent. You can easily specify if survey respondents can take the survey just once, an unlimited number of times, or a specified number of times.

If your customers don't have a good experience with your customer care department, you can expect to see a drop off in contract renewals and a diminished reputation in your industry. Offering exception customer service is an excellent way to add value to your offering.
