Case Study: Customer Retention
Client Situation: The client, a large property and casualty insurer, was unable to retain customers in one of its largest markets, Quebec. They were using a traditional call center approach to manage their customer relationship and needed a sales and marketing strategy to address their customer retention issue.
Raybec's Approach: Raybec worked with the client to design and execute a retention campaign that targeted customers in the Quebec region. A strategy was developed to engage customers and uncover the customers' renewal intention.
The following steps were taken:
- Each customer received a highly personalized package that thanked them for their business.
- Each package solicited feedback on the quality of service; renewal intention; cross-sell opportunities; and need for additional information of interest.
- Customers could submit feedback by mail, fax or telephone.
- Customers received a highly personalized 'Thank You' after responding to the survey.
Value Delivered: The client captured key relationship insights, which were then used to increase retention and cross-sell opportunities.
- The campaign generated an unprecedented response rate greater than 30%.
- Retention increased by 5.6% (e.g. if retention in the control group was 85%, retention in the test group was 90.6%)
- 20% of responses generated cross-sell opportunities which were forwarded to the sales organization for follow-up
