Customer Metrics: Measure what matters most to customers

As business leaders we tend to pay a lot of attention to the metrics important to the business, that is, revenue, cash flow, profitability, growth and so on... but the real drivers of these business outcomes are customers.

So the obvious question becomes what customer metrics should I be tracking to make sure my business metrics continue to head in the right direction?

Why most companies don't deliver great customer experiences
We are all customers and we know what a great customer experiences feels like. We also know that a great customer experience influences our behavior, we want to talk about it with friends and we feel good about doing business with the company that provided it.

 

 

We know all this and yet we see time and again examples of poor experiences, just like this Range Rover customer above taking revenge on the company that clearly did not create the right car ownership experience. Why does this happen?

One of the biggest risks a business faces is the loss of its customers or the inability to profitably gain new ones. These risks can be substantially reduced if a business has a strong alignment with its markets through a customer-focused culture.
