Customer Service Value Statistics

In a recent article, I shared the importance of customer relationships for 2021. We’re in a world where the competition is fierce. You probably have competitors who have offers similar to yours.  Your key differentiator is likely how you bond with customers. How you take care of them. It’s core to your survival.

If you’re fence-sitting on the necessity of investing in your customer experience, the facts are available.  I found an article that shared 50 stats proving the value of customer relationships.  Here are my key takeaways.

• Companies focused on customers outperform their competition by nearly 80%.
• In 2010 only 36% of companies focused on CX. Today 66% use it as a competitive edge.
