Page 5 - customer service consistency matters
P. 5
To get a customer, the first experience has to be great. But
to keep a customer, subsequent experiences have to be just as
good, if not better. Not only in person—everywhere.
A Salesforce survey shows that 75% of consumers "expect
consistent experiences across multiple channels," and 75% are
"likely to switch brands if they don't get it."
Bottom line: once a customer decides to buy from you, they
expect the same level of service every single time they interact with
your business.
If a customer got past the inherent resistance to trying out new
things (your service) and had a pleasant experience, they'll come
back and choose you over competitors. You've removed the
burden of uncertainty, the burden of wondering if you'll meet their
expectations.
