FOX CITIES, Wis. (May 12, 2023) – Customer service at any company can make or break that business. Consider these facts about the power of positive customer service:
· 89% of companies with “significantly above average” customer experiences perform better financially than their competitors. (Qualtrics XM Institute)
· 93% of customers are likely to make repeat purchases with companies who offer excellent customer service. (HubSpot Research)
· Businesses can grow revenues between 4% and 8% above their market when prioritizing better customer service experiences. (Bain & Company)
On the flip side, here is the impact of poor customer service on a business:
· 78% of customers have backed out of a purchase due to a poor customer experience. (Glance)
· Only 1 in 26 customers will tell a business about their negative experience; according to customer service facts, the rest simply leave. (Esteban Kolsky)
· 67% of customers report a terrible customer experience as the reason for switching businesses. (Esteban Kolsky)
