This satisfaction results not only from the product purchased, or the service and support or even the response and shipping time.

Customer satisfaction starts at the beginning of the customer's journey

On this journey, the customer already has important touchpoints with your company, which are decisive for whether or not there is a purchase and a later collaboration.

The first step is to identify which initial points of contact, so-called touchpoints, the customer has. While these touchpoints may vary from industry to industry and may appear in a different order, there are some points that are general.


Combine Touchpoint management with NPS

If that succeeds, the potential new customer will find out more about your company and the products and services. Make sure to provide sufficient information here. This can be done via landing pages, videos and social media channels. Keep an eye on these initial points and make sure to optimize them with the help of an NPS survey in order to make it as easy as possible for interested parties to get all relevant information quickly.

If the information is well provided, the interested party will have the next touchpoint with your company, for example in form of a newsletter subscription, an active purchase, or contacting your support team to clarify any questions that may arise.


Keep an eye on the Customer Journey

Everything went well, topic finished? No, because the customer's journey doesn't end there. There are many other touchpoints between customer and provider that can have both positive and negative effects on the relationship. Be it in the course of further customer loyalty, upselling, subsequent purchases, and even when simply changing customer contact details.

For example, you can start an NPS query directly in the advertisement or on the product information landing page and obtain helpful information on structure, design and totality.

In the further process you can start an NPS query immediately after the purchase and inquire about difficulties and problems with the purchase process. Annual surveys of existing customers are the classic example of a satisfaction analysis with NPS, but have you ever thought of carrying out a survey if the existing customer has changed their master data?

This can quickly lead to frustration on the part of the customer, which may not have an immediate negative effect on the relationship with your company over time.

Another prominent touchpoint where you should use NPS is the moment when your services are no longer wanted and the customer cancels.

Once you have successfully identified the touchpoints, it is now important to ask the right questions, to react to the individual needs of the customer and thus to continuously improve the customer journey. The more and the earlier you ask questions, the sooner you will receive information on possible improvement potential.

Why customer feedback is so important for your business.

Collecting customer feedback is essential to building a profitable business. The background is explained quite simply. Because if you don't know what your customers think of your brand or products, you don't know when you're falling short of expectations and requirements. At the same time, you don't know why certain customers are happy with your company, nor who those customers are.

How your pricing policy affects customer satisfaction.

One of the most important aspects of any business is the pricing strategy. If you were to place two identical products in front of each other - one cheap and another that is several times more expensive- which would be the best product in your opinion? It is interesting that many consumers would view and select the more expensive product as the better, even if this is not really the case.
