How To Improve Customer Satisfaction with RouteSavvy

How to improve customer satisfaction is one aspect of running a business or non-profit that can keep owners and managers awake at night. The most common strategy for improving customer satisfaction usually involves deploying customer satisfaction surveys followed by policy and/or procedural changes to improve the customer experience.

Yet, a surprising and often overlooked aspect that powerfully affects customer satisfaction the TIMELINESS of a business or non-profit’s deliveries, pick-ups, or service calls.

Did You Know: A 2015 consumer survey showed that 66% of shoppers bought goods from one retailer over another because the delivery services were more appealing.

The context of this particular survey was about e-commerce. But the lessons learned from these survey results show that the timeliness and efficiency of deliveries, pick-ups, and service calls are key factors that can help improve customer satisfaction.

Another compelling statistic from this 2015 study also showed that a whopping 96% of the survey participants said that a positive delivery experience would encourage them to shop with that business again.

So the point is: When businesses and non-profits create a positive customer experience related to deliveries, pick-ups, and service calls that are accurate and on time, it goes a LONG way toward creating a loyal customer.

Thinking About How To Improve Customer Satisfaction?…Use Route Planning Software!

Route planning software tools like RouteSavvy offer a lot of benefits, including cost savings in fuel spend and labor, time savings, and more. But RouteSavvy’s contribution to customer satisfaction stems from more efficient routing. This means deliveries, pick-ups, or service calls are more likely to hit the designated arrival time, and that makes for happy customers.

Another statistic that emerged from the 2015 customer satisfaction study was that 80% of the survey participants want an accurate timeslot of when the delivery, pick-up, or service call vehicle will arrive. If today’s consumers have a bad experience with a vehicle that’s slated for a specific arrival time and are late, they don’t hesitate to voice their disappointment via social media. So a poor experience with a late delivery, pick-up, or service call can be broadcast by the disgruntled customer and magnified far beyond the scope of one peeved customer.
