The best way to outpace your competition is to stop chasing them and start understanding your customers. When you truly understand what your audience values, you uncover hidden expectations that others in your industry might overlook. That is why conducting surveys is essential for staying relevant and customer centric.

Customer satisfaction survey is a tool that helps businesses gather feedback from clients, drive improvements across the customer journey, and assist in measuring their level of satisfaction. Here are some benefits of carrying out surveys.

• Serve as an effective tool to measure customer loyalty

To facilitate a five-star customer experience (CX) program for various business organizations, ThinkOwl introduced a new feature called CSAT Survey. The feedback collected from surveys reflects specific pain points and assists in constantly recreating positive customer experiences.

Creating a survey in ThinkOwl is super-easy

Within ThinkOwl helpdesk software, you can initiate the process of creating a customer satisfaction survey. Let us explore how to do it.

First, give a name to the survey. It is the name by which you can internally recognize the contents of a survey form. Do not worry; customers do not see this name.

ThinkOwl allows you to draft a survey in multiple languages. Set a primary survey language and then (if necessary) use the translation tool to translate it to the secondary language your customers understand. 

Although setting up surveys is simple, still consider the larger picture before getting started related to the type of questions you ask. It will influence what you want to achieve from the survey. Based on the excepted objectives, set the survey question. This question is displayed at the top when a customer opens the survey form.

Once the questions are framed, configure some important KPIs and other related options such as:

• Rating scale: Choose any of the given rating scales – 2, 3, 5, 7, or 10-point. These rating scales allow you to quantify subjective customer experiences and help track them.
• Rating order: Choose between two rating orders: Negative to Positive or Positive to Negative. When using the rating scale, a good practice is always to keep Negative to Positive.
• Point style: Depict how you want to display the ratings – be they numbers, smileys, or stars. 
• Text label: Corresponding to the chosen rating scale, specify the points at which text labels should be displayed. For example, if you are utilizing a 5-point rating scale with labels for all points, this is how the survey scale will look like.

• Text-level values: Set the text-level values, such as Satisfied, Dissatisfied, or Completely Satisfied. You can even change the default values to match your company's voice or tone.
• Select the channel and duration: Select the method of sending the survey (for instance, email) and decide how often you want to send a survey to the same customer, along with the time duration for the survey to be active.
• Comment box: At the end of the survey form, there is an option to enable a Comment Box. This comment box comes into play after customers select a value on the rating scale. It allows them to type in additional details. In a way, this is helpful to dig more into the CX arena.
• Setting rules: Type the message that you want to show as an error message, which will be displayed if a customer tries to reply to the same survey a second time.

Launching the customer satisfaction survey

After fulfilling all the parameters of setting up a survey, it is time for the launch. You can send the survey as a separate email after resolving the case. Also, you can enable the option to automatically activate a survey when customer cases are marked resolved in the ThinkOwl helpdesk. The best part—ThinkOwl provides the option to view, edit, and delete surveys. Should you wish to modify any survey attributes or make any changes, you can definitely do so. The idea is to give an option to make necessary modifications and cross-check all parameters prior to launching the survey.

Survey results and reports

Customer satisfaction leads to increased revenue and repeat purchases. Thus, measuring customer satisfaction is quintessential for a business to flourish. Analyzing the survey report gives a detailed picture of the main areas for improvement. As a result, companies can strengthen their service standards. In addition, satisfaction measurement provides ideas for improving customer relationship efficiency, which means if customer satisfaction rises, the organization is clearly on the right track.

The Survey Result page summarizes the customer satisfaction metrics for each survey form and shows the Feedback, which records a list of customer names, the case ID of the resolved case, and customer comments. The Summary section shows the following details:

• Percentage of customer rating at each point of the rating scale
• Percentage of response for the selected survey
• Number of times the survey has been sent out
• Responses received against the surveys
• CSAT – customer satisfaction score based on the customer feedback to the selected survey
• NPS – For surveys that use a 10-point rating scale, an additional score is displayed, i.e., the net promoter score, which helps gauge customer loyalty.

The customer feedback section unfolds a list of customers and their survey-related details.

• All users are listed with their resolved case ID, their survey rating, and comments
• An overall satisfaction score is displayed next to their names. In the case view, the resolved case also contains the customer survey rating and comments
• To narrow down customer feedback, you can take the help of the search box to search for a specific feedback comment with filters like Ratings, Date, Newest first, Language, etc.

Survey reports help you to analyze, identify, and act. In a way, these are decision-making tools where management teams can prioritize their actions based on survey results and satisfaction indicators.

Conclusion

In today’s demanding world, buyers expect good experiences at every step of their journey with your business. Even the small events that might go unnoticed by the service team can make a huge difference in how customers think about your brand. So, it is critical to ensure that customer satisfaction endeavors are at the topmost.
