FIRST
CALL RESOLUTION: HOW TO DEFINE AND MEASURE
First call resolution (one and done) is the #1 driver for customer
satisfaction with best practices reported at 86%. However, this
means that 14% of your customers are contacting you more than once
(or twice) to resolve their issues!
Repeat
calls are costly not only to operations and the bottom line,
but they negatively impact
customer satisfaction. 34% of customers who didn’t get their
inquiry or problem resolved will likely to go to a competitor.
What does
losing that customer cost you? Plug in your own numbers to our
formula. How do you define first call resolution? And how
do you—if you do—calculate it? Know that research shows
that there is no common method for measuring this.
However,
what gets measured gets managed, and what gets managed gets better.
More than 90% of companies measuring FCR reported improvement
in
performance.
One of
the foremost methods to boost customer satisfaction—and
improve FCR—is to consistently and ongoingly train, train,
train your front lines in world class customer service skills such
that they can do their job right the first time.
