Ten Key Points for Successful Customer Satisfaction Measurement

1. Research Objectives alignment with the overall strategy of the organisation.

2. Understand the balance between perception and objective.

3. Involve all the stakeholders from the outset.

4. Plan early-on for how you will share and follow up the results.

5. Carry out an insight audit and build on what is already known within the organisation. Add or delete as appropriate.

22www.csba.com.au

6. Identify the key drivers of customer satisfaction and work with your stakeholders to decide where to take action first.

7. Make sure drivers have ‘Line of sight’ for all employees.

8. Understand what the customer experience is actually like and how the customer defines the service: consider customer journey mapping if there are gaps in your knowledge.

9. Use external customer satisfaction measurement to track progress and provide feedback to those responsible for making change happen.

Survey soon after experience
