5 simple questions that will urge your clients to have a conversation

13.12.2013 Angelika Siczek

Being an online vendor, you may not always have the possibility to contact your customers directly. Hence -the support tickets, online chat, customer reviews, forums, and telephone orders, which are probably the only way to get feedback from the client. Unfortunately, most of them do not always give a sincere opinion about completed purchases, and take too much time and attention, because it is the only way to gather and organize the right amount of information.

 

It is not easy to persuade the customer to leave a complete opinion about the store in which he made purchases because it takes too much time. In many cases, customers skip the review element because they have neither the time nor the capacity to spend hundreds of hours to complete surveys. Even when retailers offer tempting promotions and discounts, so that users can easily fill out a survey form or write a review, it still does not bring the expected results. This means that there will be no data that will allow you to increase the efficiency of the warehouse.

  

Yes, the only way to collect invaluable information about the quality of customer service is urgency. Therefore, it is important to choose the right time to set the analyses. Marketers suggest conducting tests no later than 5 days after the order was delivered to the customer.

  

Before submitting, consider the list of questions that will appear in the bulletin. The only solution is to put yourself in the customer’s situation and think about what questions you want to be asked as a common buyer.

  

In this article, we suggest some effective questions that you should ask your clients about regarding their experience. You can also use additional tools to refine your research or collect feedback after purchase.
