Commandment IX: Measuring Your Customer's Experience 
 
What gets measured gets managed

If you want to see how a company is doing now, look at their current sales. If you want to know how a company will perform in the future, look at their current customer satisfaction score.

     -Joe Calloway, Author and Speaker
 
Your goals must be measurable and tied to a specific metric that tells you: how satisfied your customers are with you, who is clearly serving customers, who is inconsistent, whether you are demonstrating your Service Vision to your customers, how effective your service recovery is, and how you stack up against your competition.  
 
Strong sales can disguise many serious issues. We all know companies that open with a bang, decide they have a proven model, and grow too rapidly. The sad result is that within a few years they are struggling to reinvent themselves in order to stay afloat. Why? Because once the novelty wears off and the competitors duplicate the product, the consistency of the experience they provide will be the only criterion customers use to determine value versus the value of the competition. If you plan to open your business in new markets, regionally or nationally, then the need for measurement becomes even more critical. Too many businesses fail to realize that customers view all of a company's locations as equal: equally good, equally bad, or equally indifferent. To a customer, one bad experience with a brand can be its death sentence.

Measuring the customer experience means you have a definitive red-flag mechanism that you can use to immediately address all its components: who, what, where, when, and how. You can measure what is working and what customers value.  You can measure defects in your overall system, and you can pinpoint inconsistencies and lower performing locations.

What keeps a customer loyal and highly satisfied is the experience and value the customer perceives that you offer for the price you charge - not what you, the owner, and your employees perceive the value and experience to be.
 
Don't Try This at Home
 
Measuring customer satisfaction and disseminating the data has become a science; however, growing companies should not try to do it themselves. Perhaps the most significant factor in creating a superior customer experience is knowing what your customers want. It sounds simple enough. We think we know our customers and we believe we know what they want. But do we really? When was the last time you asked them the right questions in order to find out what they really want? What did you do with that information? Too often we do not have enough of the right information. Or we have great information but we have no idea what to do with it, and we don't have someone in place or empowered to drive the changes needed within the company.
 
Understanding how to acquire, measure, and act on the right information can mean the difference between a customer sampling your business occasionally and that customer being extremely loyal and referring others to your business. One common mistake made by companies that try to measure their customer experience themselves is pre-identifying questions and categories, and thus steering customers in a specific direction.

Jerry resides as the water restoration tech for the Jonesboro and northeast Arkansas area.  He has proudly worked for ALL-CLEAN USA for the past five years.  

A hard worker, it doesn't matter the task he is asked to do; he completes it to perfection and with a smile. He is seen as a very valuable part of the ALL-CLEAN USA family.

Jerry was born in Long Beach, CA, before moving to Arkansas and attending school in Caraway. He moved to Jonesboro in 1988. 

He is the proud parent of a 24 year old son, Jeremy and 21 year old daughter, Misty.  He loves spending time
with his three year old grandson, Jeffry.

"My favorite part of the job is the people around me.  I have never worked
with a better bunch of people than at the Jonesboro office," states Jerry.  "From my co-workers, to management, to the owner - my hat's off to all of them."
