How Can Proactive Customer Service Save Your Brand?

Where’s the ROI for Proactive Customer Service?

1. Delight vocal customers publicly

2. Help them before they phone

3. Prevent losing customer revenue

Example ROI calculation

Over 1 year, Browns’ Supermarket helps 10,000 unique customers using proactive customer service

How Can Proactive Customer Service Save Your Brand?

1. Brand

People who complain on social media tell 42 people about positive brand experiences – but 53 people about negative experiences.

(Compared to 24 & 15 for average consumers)

By helping 10,000 people, they can change 530k negative shares into 420k positive shares – high trust impressions.

2. Cost to Serve

Resolution cost: Phone $15 / Twitter $3

4,000 call deflections = ($15 - $3) * 4,000 = $48,000 saved

Clickfox: 40% of people who complain via social media will subsequently phone the call center.

3. Exposed Revenue Protected

Unique Customers Helped * Annual Customer Value

= Exposed Revenue Protected

Average Browns’ Supermarket customer = $1,000 annual revenue.

10,000 helped = $10m annual exposed revenue that they could have lost if they didn’t help proactively.

How Can Proactive Customer Service Save Your Brand?

Example ROI of helping 10k customers proactively:

420,000 high value positive impressions

$48k direct productivity savings via call deflection

$10m annual exposed revenue protected
