    Study Notes

    Metrics for Customer Service

    • Metrics track all areas of business, while key performance indicators (KPIs) target essential performance areas.
    • A balanced scorecard approach is used, which includes financial results, operational and running costs, quality, and customer satisfaction measures.
    • Different industries may add other metrics, such as compliance, to the group of metrics.

    Customer Satisfaction

    • Customer satisfaction (CSAT) measures how happy or satisfied customers are with a service, product, or organization.
    • CSAT indicates how well an organization's services and products match customer's expectations.
    • Customer satisfaction is a critical measure for any customer-facing organization.

    Measuring Customer Satisfaction

    • Customer satisfaction can be measured through broad survey questions, such as "How would you rate your overall satisfaction with the service you received?"
    • The level of customer satisfaction can be assessed in several ways, including:
      • Rating scales (e.g., 1-5, 1-10)
      • Symbols (e.g., stars, smiley faces)
      • Words or phrases (e.g., "very unsatisfied", "unsatisfied", "neutral", "satisfied", "very satisfied")
    • The CSAT score is calculated by collating the number of customers who are "satisfied" or "very satisfied".

    Quality Metrics

    • Quality metrics measure outcomes, not activities, and address the standards of performance.
    • Quality metrics that support customer service include:
      • First Contact Resolution (FCR)
      • Quality and consistency of service across channels
      • The quality of self-service experience
      • Customer satisfaction (CSAT)
      • Customer loyalty

    First Contact Resolution (FCR)

    • FCR refers to the number of interactions resolved on the first engagement with a customer.
    • FCR is highly correlated to customer satisfaction, with a 1% improvement in FCR resulting in a 1% improvement in customer satisfaction.
    • Organizations with high FCR scores have lower operating costs, reduced at-risk revenue, and improved employee satisfaction.
