About the Author Guy is the founder and managing director of CustomerSure, software that lets companies gather, manage and respond to customer feedback to improve customer satisfaction. Before founding CustomerSure, Guy was Head of Services at Sage where he used his experience to transform 10% attrition into 20% growth. Alongside 14 years at Sage his CV includes British Airways and Logica. Guy s roles at Sage included R&D Director for the UK business and Head of Customer Services. During the period when Sage grew rapidly and entered the FTSE 100 the specific needs were to manage the growth and frequent acquisitions, to introduce customer-led development, to raise the bar on quality and reliability, to deliver on time and, most importantly, to recruit and support the team of people whose skill and hard work achieved those goals. Guy then took on commercial responsibility for services revenue and service delivery for mid-market customers.
Introduction I tried everything the book told me to. For years I heeded the advice of countless business experts in my attempts to improve customer satisfaction, loyalty and revenue. Nothing worked nearly so well as customer feedback, done right. And it makes sense. Because instead of trying to guess what s going on with customers you get to know. I want you to forget everything you ve experienced with customer feedback so far. I m willing to bet you ve found customer feedback forms are too long, ask irrelevant questions and are completely ignored once you ve completed them. This set of templates are working examples my company and our customers use to achieve: incredible response rates actionable advice to improve your business opportunities to fix problems and build customer loyalty They all follow 10 Ingredients for brilliant results, and The 3 Golden Rules of Requesting Customer Feedback.
