Webinars

Your customer experience is a critical game-changer for furniture retail businesses. It not only boosts sales and your customer influencer base, but it builds customer retention and loyalty by enhancing the customer’s lifetime value.

Our panel of experts will share what experiences customers are looking for and reveal simple tips you can use, online and in-store, to improve every interaction your customers have with your business.

Key Takeaways:

• Continually change to meet the needs and experience expectations of each customer.
• The way customers want to communicate with you is changing, so you must connect with them according to their preferences (text, phone, email, etc.)
• Give the customer the choice to reach out when needed.
•  Make sure your online and in-store checkout is fast and easy.
• In-store: make customers comfortable shopping without a salesperson, but make sure a salesperson is easily accessible.
• Online: engage with customers who have abandoned their shopping cart to let them know you care about their needs.
•  Communicate with the customer through every step of the delivery process and share in their happiness with the product they’ve just received.
• A quantitative look at your reviews and analytics helps you gauge the customer experience and lets you know where adjustments should be made.
