How can you align your call center goals and incentives with NPS and customer loyalty?

由人工智能和领英社区提供技术支持

Customer loyalty is crucial for any business, but especially for call centers that rely on repeat customers and referrals. One of the most common ways to measure customer loyalty is the Net Promoter Score (NPS), which asks customers how likely they are to recommend your service to others. A high NPS indicates that you have more promoters than detractors, and that you are delivering a positive customer experience. But how can you align your call center goals and incentives with NPS and customer loyalty? Here are some tips to help you do that.

1 Define your NPS targets

The first step is to define your NPS targets and communicate them clearly to your call center agents. You need to set realistic and achievable goals based on your industry, your customer base, and your current performance. You also need to track and report your NPS regularly, and use it as a key performance indicator (KPI) for your call center. By defining your NPS targets, you can create a shared vision and a common purpose for your call center team.

Here's some handy tips to define NPS targets and train agents effectively: 1- Research industry benchmarks or analyze historical NPS data to set realistic targets. For instance, aim for a specific NPS score or a certain percentage increase from the current score. 2- Ensure that NPS targets align with broader business objectives, such as increasing customer retention rates or driving repeat purchases. 3- Set targets for different touch points in the customer journey. For example, define separate NPS targets for post-purchase interactions, support calls, or onboarding experiences.

2 Align your incentives with NPS

The next step is to align your incentives with NPS and customer loyalty. You need to reward and recognize your call center agents who deliver high-quality service and generate more promoters. You can use various types of incentives, such as bonuses, recognition, feedback, training, or career development. The key is to make sure that your incentives are aligned with your NPS goals, and that they are fair, transparent, and consistent. By aligning your incentives with NPS, you can motivate and empower your call center agents to improve their performance and customer satisfaction.

The fact that a collaborative article discusses integrating NPS into incentives indicates that there is still much work to be done. NPS is not an indicator of the quality offered by a phone agent; it is the consumer's perception of the product or service provided by the company. Providing incentives tied to this metric is unfair and will cause frustration in your team. Furthermore, if an agent can increase the score, it means you are manipulating survey results instead of focusing on the real issue. The only task that a call center agent should perform related to NPS is to call back survey participants and inquire about the reasons behind a specific score

Explain what NPS is, why it matters, and how it's calculated. Train agents to empathise with customers, actively listen to their concerns, and focus on resolving issues effectively to positively influence NPS. Provide regular feedback on NPS-related interactions and coach agents on improving their approach. Share actual customer feedback (anonymised) with agents to illustrate the impact of their actions on NPS. Encourage learning from both positive and negative feedback. Examples of NPS Training Practices: Scenario-based Training: Create scenarios based on different NPS feedback and coach agents on how to handle similar situations effectively to improve NPS scores.
