#6 Redefining Service’s Role In A Company’s Growth And Profitability
Stephen Smith, VP Strategic Industries, ClickSoftware
A customer-centric service approach can have a dramatic impact on a company’s bottom line. KissMetrics found that over 70% of customers have ended their relationship with a company due to poor service. Companies such as Amazon, Netflix, and Uber are raising the bar when it comes to customer service, resulting in increased customer expectations and making customer-driven service improvements a top priority. Public and private sectors are experiencing this shift in the service market, fighting legacy systems, processes and culture that limit the ability to transform their approach to service. Join us for a lively and passionate discussion as we profile field service professionals as the new brand ambassadors, and underscore the impact field service has on growth and profitability for your company.
