Today is Tax Day, folks! Are you expecting to receive a return this year? Or, better yet, are you anticipating a return on the investments you’ve made in your customer relationships?
Let’s do some reflecting. To measure your customer experience initiatives from the past year, you want to analyze your return on investment (ROI) and the return on relationship (ROR).
You can calculate the ROI of your customer experience by looking at hard numbers. But measuring your ROR is less concrete. You’ll need to review the perceived and real value of nurturing a customer relationship across the entire lifetime of their shopping experience using analytics that gauge brand loyalty and shared recommendations.
