Case Study - Increasing Customer Loyalty and Revenue at Intuit

A 5% increase in customer loyalty can boost profits by as much as 85%. In contrast, poor customer service has a negative impact on revenue, margins, and brands.

I recently spent 45 agonizing minutes on the phone with the local cable provider I have had for over 15 years. After not getting my problem solved, receiving conflicting answers, and getting transferred multiple times, I switched to a new provider. One bad interaction with unskilled call center representative destroyed a 15-year relationship.

When Harvard Business Review asked consumers what dimensions of customer service they would most like to see companies measure, the highest number (65%) said "knowledgeable employees." Consumers defined these desirable employees as being able to "answer my questions without putting me on hold, searching for someone, or transferring me."
