Even the best businesses in the world lose customers. That’s why you need to find a strategy to steadily bring in new customers in order to survive – and thrive. Without a strategy to acquire customers, it’s easy to keep doing what seems to be working without examining how effective your approach truly is. Or on the other hand, invest too little money in a channel that has the potential to bring in many more customers than it does right now.

Utility companies provide people with critical and valuable services: Heat, hydro, and other essentials that consumers have come to rely on. Given the increasing number of customers they must support, these companies would certainly benefit from implementing strong customer service offerings.

By Peg Ayers. When my father passed away, I spent hours in queue, waiting for help from a variety of companies and agencies that should be providing service to those who call. In fact, they did all eventually provide the required service (except for one government agency that proved so difficult to reach, I gave up and visited them in person!). I spent much of that hold time compiling my list of queue time grievances.

By Colin Taylor. Service level is one of the most common metrics employed at call and contact centers to define how the center is performing. Senior management becomes acclimatized to looking for that service level number and reacting to it as a gauge of how well they’re performing against targets and in meeting their customer needs.

Professionals in the customer service industry know how complicated people can get—some are delightful, some are moody, some are grumpy, and so on.

Of course, customer service ties both fields together, as providing a top-notch customer service experience is the key to acquiring and retaining new and existing customers

If your customers aren’t using your product, then they’re not really your customers. They may have subscribed, but if they’re not actively engaging with the product, they’ll never see the value of their investment. And without a clear return in sight, they’re a churn waiting to happen. That’s why it’s important to understand how to calculate adoption rate.

It was the 100th anniversary of the church in which I grew up. So, the red-letter day called for a homecoming, complete with a delicious pot luck lunch following the 90-minute worship service.
