Loop® Mobile Customer Engagement by Benbria® Awarded 2014 CRM Excellence Award Presented by Customer Magazine
(PRWEB) June 10, 2014 -- Benbria®, a leading provider of hosted mobile customer engagement solutions, announced today that TMC, a global, integrated media company, has named Loop® Mobile Customer Engagement as a recipient of a 2014 CRM Excellence Award, presented by CUSTOMER magazine.
“The 15th Annual CRM Excellence Awards has recognized Benbria for driving innovation in the field of mobile customer engagement,” said Rich Tehrani, TMC’s CEO and Group Editor-in-Chief. “Loop enables brands to drive operational excellence by better connecting them with their customers at the decisive moment in their experience. These real-time connections give brands the opportunity to satisfy customer needs on-the-spot which creates a deeper personal connection between employees and customers.”
“We are honored to be chosen for a CRM Excellence Award by Customer Magazine.” said Andrea Baptiste, CEO, Benbria. “As an operational and real-time communications tool, Loop empowers brands to proactively act on customer concerns, suggestions and requests, resulting in higher same-store sales and a superior customer experience that goes above and beyond their competitors.”
Loop® Mobile Customer Engagement
Loop helps companies forge stronger bonds with their customers. Real-time communications and operational improvements help brands realize the following benefits:
• Retailers Improve In-store Sales Conversion – Loop helps omnichannel retailers engage and communicate with in-store buyers, showroomers and non-buyers. Connecting associates with shoppers via their mobile device at the decisive moment in the shopping experience helps retailers convert more sales. These live interactions uncover operational issues that hinder the shopper experience and give brands the opportunity to drive new levels of satisfaction.
• Hotels Increase Guest Satisfaction & Loyalty – Loop helps hotels to deliver a superior guest experience by giving guests the ability to use their smart device to make requests and provide feedback on any aspect of their stay. Hotels connect with guests privately and resolve issues before they reach social media. Real-time action helps hotels increase bookings and recover at-risk guests by overcoming negative experiences and drawing out positive reviews.
• Restaurants Increase Same-Store Sales – Loop helps brands operate better restaurants by focusing staff attention on the customer’s experience. Instead of reacting to aggregated receipt-based feedback, brands have the opportunity to connect customers with staff and resolve their concerns before they leave the restaurant. Brands can use real-time customer input to motivate employees and improve operations before the next customer walks into the restaurant.
While Loop is operationally unique in its ability to collect, track and direct actionable customer experience data in real time to front-line staff for action and closure, it also empowers brands with detailed analytics. Real-time reports measure the employee's speed of first response and time-to-close on customer comments, as well as staff's product knowledge, service quality and friendliness – ultimately holding employees accountable to ensuring a consistent and optimal customer experience across all locations.
Based on hard data, the CRM Excellence Awards rely on facts and statistics demonstrating the improvements that the winner’s product has made in a client’s business. Winners were chosen on the basis of their product or service’s ability to help extend and expand the customer relationship to become all encompassing, covering the entire enterprise and the entire lifetime of the customer.
The 2014 CRM Excellence Award winners can be found in the May issue of CUSTOMER magazine.
