Focus on Reducing Customer Irritants to Maximise Real Customer Satisfaction
 

customer intimacy

When your customers know you’re talking directly to them, and about them, they begin to feel engaged in a dialogue...

With even the most basic customer information available, we are able to provide personalised documents to spark the feeling of engagement and initiate the dialogue with your customers.

That dialogue generates customer trust, and trust – as we all know – can be your most valuable asset for marketing and retention. As you gather information about your customers, you are able to increase the level of document personalisation – providing communications that can become more and more relevant to the recipient as the relationship life cycle progresses.

This level of personalisation will differentiate your product and service offerings from those of your competitors and will enable you to provide a tiered service model to your most valuable customers.

The Smart Publishing service will increase real customer satisfaction at every touch point, reducing churn rates and improving the profitability of your financial services products.

achieve measurable success against predefined strategic and revenue targets

Pain beats pleasure. Australian financial institutions, like their counterparts around the world, put heavy emphasis on customer satisfaction scores as performance indicators for their products and services. However, when examined in depth, these scores do not necessarily translate into customer advocacy or long-term revenue growth.

Through the eyes of customers, financial services organisations have the wrong priorities. The primary focus should be on customers’ sources of frustration, not on initiatives to create a fantastic customer experience – what we call the ‘wow’ factor. The pain of poor service far outweighs the pleasure derived from customer acquisition or retention activities. Organisations that recognise this are more likely to focus their attention on addressing the real issues for their customers. This translates into a reduction in customer churn and a positive flow through to profitability.

Among Banking Customers polled by Fujitsu Australia, the biggest frustration cited was ‘Poor Service’ and IFSA research found that the primary service element that continued to fail to meet expectations was service documentation.

The Smart Publishing proposition provides organisations with an opportunity to deal with one of the largest customer irritants by offering personalised, user-friendly documentation. This brings the ability to exceed customer expectations in this area, providing relevant customer satisfaction to reduce churn rates in an organisation.

During the establishment of the Smart Publishing Service, Smart Publishing Australia will work with your organisation to establish relevant repeatable metrics to measure the success of the service during its life cycle.

The metrics will provide feedback to allow your organisation to make decisions about the type of initiative that provide genuine customer satisfaction.
