LSA Global Announces New Contact Center Best Practices Health Check

Santa Clara, CA, November 9, 2009 – LSA Global, the premier one-stop global training and consulting firm that focuses on achieving measurable business results with a select group of clients, today announced the offering of a new complimentary Contact Center Health Check to help companies assess the effectiveness of their Contact Center in differentiating, building sales, creating visibility, and increasing customer loyalty in today’s economy.

“At a time when organizations are mandated to increase revenue and to cut cost without impacting the customer experience, it is critical to understand what resources you have to leverage. LSA Global’s health check will highlight some key areas for focus to ensure that your organization is well positioned in the marketplace,” according to Anne Slough, Head of the Customer Loyalty Practice for LSA Global. “While many companies have chosen to retreat and to ‘hope for the best,’ we know that hope is not a strategy. It’s imperative that organizations ‘plan their work and work their plan.’ A customer’s experience with your organization today, will determine where they will spend their dollars tomorrow. Don’t be left out of the recovery. Focus today on leveraging what you do well and use our health check to identify your areas of risk.”

According to a recent study:

• 92% of consumers form their image of a company based upon their experience using that company’s contact center
• 91% of dissatisfied customers never purchase goods or services from that company again

And, interestingly, 80% of contact center executives’ first concern is customer satisfaction and retention.

Do you know if your contact center strategy measures up to world-class contact centers and industry best practices?

Based upon over 20 years of research and data gathered from over 20,000 managers and 60,000 employees across multiple industries, we have identified the core attributes inherent in top performing contact center strategies.

How does your Contact Center measure up? This confidential and complimentary Contact Center Health Check will help you quickly compare your company’s current contact center practices to multi-industry best practices and provide the first step towards increasing customer service and brand loyalty.
