The kind of feedback that helps you improve and motivate your business to reach its full potential.  It helps you keep account of your customers’ experiences and helps you focus on the aspects of your business that can still be improved.

 

 

The best ideas and concepts don’t come from employees themselves, but from your customers and clients that use your services. The fact that you acknowledge and take action for most feedbacks shows that you care for your customers and boosts their overall satisfaction and strengthens loyalty with your brand.

Your customer relationship is a give and take. The more you care, the better they care for your brand too. The challenge is getting the honest and constructive feedback that you need from your customers. You should understand that quality feedback can actually take time out of a person’s day. This is where incentives like discounts or simple freebies can be very effective.

This is why you should take this opportunity and help prompt customers to those sites and leave their personal and honest feedbacks. You can add something this simple to your monthly email newsletters ,or even on your business website.

Sites like these give people more headway to personalize their suggestions and even longer comment boxes to accommodate all their thoughts.

 

Email
