ROC Brings the Customer Back into the Financial Picture
An article from Don Peppers of Peppers and Rogers Group. They introduce the concept of Return on Customer (ROC) which companies can use to gauge the rate at which customers create value for a firm. Read more on what these gurus are advocating...
Growing GREAT Customer Experiences Forum
Congratulations must go to one of our loyal customers ORIX Australia who recently received an award for the Best Supplier from one of Australia’s largest banks, St. George. See how they achieved this by reading more…
2005 will see SRD Group putting even more energy and focus into helping companies like ORIX grow even greater customer experiences, as we are totally committed to the notion that these positive experiences are the key to sustainable profitability.
Part of our Growing Great Customer Experience program involves getting regular feedback from customers. Another of our clients who are also committed to this notion is Unisys New Zealand Limited. This is what they had to say about their interaction with SRD Group:
"Unisys has used the SRD Group for the last 3 years to survey the satisfaction of our user community once every quarter. Throughout this time I have found the SRD team to be highly responsive to our needs, which more often than not, come with little to no lead time.
The surveys are professionally run and provide extremely useful intelligence on where I need to focus attention as well as the services that our customers are happy with - it's all critical information necessary to continually improve.
Aside from the surveying - Neil and his team have always been available to have a chat about latest thinking in the CRM space and how I can bring to bear other SRD services so at the end of the day we are working towards our goal of providing a "great customer experience" every time we talk with our customers.
I recommend SRD Group to anyone who cares about what their customers think and who are agile enough to change."
