Inspiring customer loyalty through customer journey mapping

Telecom technology company Wavelo describes how companies can inspire customer trust through delivering exceptional customer service

It goes without saying that one of the best ways to build trust with your customers is to deliver an exceptional level of service throughout your entire customer support organization.

Customers need to feel like they have made the right decision when selecting your organization to deliver a product or service. At Wavelo, we build that trust by creating a customized experience for each customer to ensure that they derive the best value and experience from working with our CX team.

To apply this in practice, our CX team follows three simple steps that help us build trust with our customers:

Create confidence

Hire CX employees who have the talent needed to connect with customers on their level. When customers interact with someone that has the tools, skills and knowledge to correctly diagnose the situation it helps our customers build trust with us and recognize that we have got things under control.

Keep it simple. Removing technology barriers like IVRs creates trust with our customers. It allows us to take ownership of the problem and lets our customers know that they have always landed in the right place.

Stay committed

Proactively message customers on open tickets. Keeping them updated helps to build trust and ensures they know you are actively engaged in driving towards a resolution.

Build processes with your product and engineering teams that ensure your CX teams have priority focus on customer-sensitive issues. Having strong internal relationships makes it easier to ensure that key customer issues are addressed in future product releases.

Invest in customer success

Customers need to know that you have their back. Having someone solely focused on their experience with your product or service is the key to building strong customer relationships.

Embark on a journey with your customers. Take the time to understand what your customers want to see in the future and partner with them on that vision. This allows you to build loyalty with your customers and strengthens those relationships.

These three steps have allowed Wavelo to continually strengthen our relationships with our customers as we venture to offer a modern alternative to an operations support system or a business support system. CX is at the forefront of everything we do and building trust is an integral part of our continued success.
