PORTLAND, Ore., Feb. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- AskNicely, a leader in customer experience software for service businesses, today announced the results of its 2022 State of Frontline Survey. Conducted by Metrigy, and inclusive of 215 service businesses in the US, UK, Canada and Australia, the first-of-its-kind report identifies four key areas where companies can invest in empowering their frontline teams to significantly increase ROI from their customer experience (CX) investments. AskNicely Head of Marketing, Robert Galop, will present the findings in depth at the virtual Global Frontline Experience Summit taking place Wednesday, Feb 16, 2022, from 8 a.m. - 6 p.m. (PST).
"We are excited to reveal the invaluable insights from the survey," says Galop. "Traditional methods of managing customer experience are holding service businesses back. Companies follow a long path of collecting and analyzing data before taking any action to improve the actual experience. This data may eventually - but probably will not - trickle down to those frontline teams that can actually do something about it. Service businesses following this approach spend more and get less out of their customer experience than those following the AskNicely approach."
The survey found that service businesses realize significant gains from their customer experience initiatives when following the AskNicely approach:
"CX and other business leaders have found tremendous success by using technology to improve interactions with customers. By expanding with innovative technologies that help empower frontline workers, we are seeing impressive and measurable improvement in both the customer and employee experiences," says Robin Gareiss, Metrigy CEO and principal analyst. "The research clearly shows the value of products and services such as those offered by AskNicely."
