Retail Case Study
Situation:
Qualitative research uncovered that customers considered a specialty
retailer in the consumer food category as a “favorite” store; however,
this didn’t translate into purchasing from the store most often.
Therefore, the retailer wanted to prioritize what attributes customers
valued the most, which if delivered properly, would ultimately increase
their loyalty to the store.
Solution:
Campos Inc recommended an online survey among category users.
Over 500 respondents rated the importance of attributes and selected
their preferences for customer service experience elements. Kano
analysis was used to group attributes into one of three categories:
Must-have needs, Satisfiers, and Delighters. The attributes which
clustered into each category were further prioritized by importance to
the customer.
Results:
The retailer learned that there were three elements which were much more
critical to the customer experience than all others. Strategies to improve
and measure franchisees’ performance on these elements were presented at
the annual franchisee conference. In addition, employee rewards were
instituted for stores and employees who exceeded customer expectations on
these three elements.
