In 5 years, Letsignit has become unrecognizable: Capucine Roche, our CMO, talks about it very well in her article, but to summarize, I'm talking about growth in turnover; a lead-gen that has reached 100% in 3 years; an increasing number of staff and above all... customers who are multiplying (quickly, very quickly).
One issue quickly becomes key: with the exponential increase in new customers, how do you offer the same level of satisfaction and maintain the 95% renewal rate? The Customer Care department has to keep up with the pace imposed by the massive influx of new customers.
And to keep up with this fast pace, we had to transform ourselves - that's the price of our success.
It is important to recognize the warning signs so as not to be overwhelmed by too much growth.
In the Customer Care department, we have identified two strong signals:
The good news? These indicators are so visible that they are impossible to miss. So far, it's not a big deal, but from now on, things will get tougher.
Our main challenge? Tripling our customers without tripling our teams.
To meet this challenge, we have followed 3 guidelines:
Before recruiting in a hurry to absorb the increase in new customers, it is better to optimize the existing staff. And that means digitalizing the experience offered to our customers.
We have two challenges on the management side:
One of our rather evocative choices in this digitalization was the choice to considerably reduce incoming calls by educating customers. One might naturally think that this decision could degrade the customer experience (frustration at not being able to reach anyone by phone). But the opposite is true.
Rather than a call that mobilizes an agent for a customer, our users are referred to our chat. An agent can handle an average of 6-7 conversations at a time with a first response time of less than a minute. In the end, the customer never waits and the digitalized customer experience is more efficient.
In addition to our chat, we have also redesigned and expanded our knowledge base. Rather than a simple FAQ in question/answer mode, we shot explanatory videos; organized webinars; produced synthetic one-pagers; added screenshots and even GIFs.
Keeping in mind that Letsignit is a digital tool – it is easier to show than to tell about our solution. After a quick customer education, the chat was widely adopted. Thus, we proved the efficiency of this new approach in record time.
The advantage of working in Tech is that certain technologies are more easily accepted. In order to better understand and anticipate the behavior of certain users, we have integrated certain technologies such as Artificial Intelligence.
To continue with the example of our chat (Intercom), we have linked this tool with our knowledge base (also Intercom). Thus, when certain keywords are spotted in the conversation, the AI can find the meaning of the question or the problem and go and get the information from our knowledge base. In parallel, the AI feeds on recurring queries or words to inspire us and expand our knowledge base.
Thanks to Artificial Intelligence, we can process 15 to 20% more tickets without overloading our teams and without impacting the quality of service.
In addition, we are leveraging AI to optimise the customer journey in our chat:
It is at this precise moment that the handover between the machine and the human takes place. This information allows our employees to ask our customers for feedback.
Transformation of our department does not only mean recruitment. Before our change of direction, some employees held what are now different jobs at the same time: project manager, success manager, support manager, etc.
Today, the bodies of expertise are refocused to gain in fluidity and efficiency:
We silo this expertise to optimize our teams' time. When we listened to our project managers, we realised how complex it was to run each business in parallel. In particular, support was taking up a lot of their time, to the detriment of the project and/or success.
The result of this refocusing? With better monitored and trained customers, the support load is reduced and deployment time is shortened.
The Customer Care team is a central department in the company.
On the commercial side, with Anthony Poyac's team, we work in tandem with sales on many aspects: in particular, bringing in business, detecting needs, and setting up proof-of-concepts (POCs).
With Capucine Roche, we feed the marketing department according to their needs: testimonials; customer references; quotes; etc.
And that's not all. We are integrated into the Agile process set up by the technical teams. We report and prioritize bugs; propose new features during product committees; manage customer reminders; and help the accounting department with unpaid invoices, etc. Moreover, our insights are directly imported into our CRM.
This interdependence of departments is formalized by recurring meetings (weekly meetings, account reviews, committees, etc.). But one thing is certain: the real success of a redesigned organization depends on the DNA of the company and a culture of change. There is no perfect format, no miracle process sequencing, no flawless organization. No, the answer lies in the culture of your company and in the way you constantly question yourself.
At Letsignit, the Care department is not just a service that answers tickets. It is a fundamental meeting point between project management and technology.
We have also created a relationship marketing position in charge of transcribing this voice of the customer into our actions. It is held by Justine Landel. The aim is to be able to create and deploy an effective loyalty strategy, analyse the customer journey, and transcribe this voice of the customer internally.
Our main KPIs are the NPS (Net Promoter Score) and the CSAT (customer satisfaction). The NPS differentiates our promoters from our detractors; i.e. the propensity of users to recommend Letsignit. This indicator is calculated using 3 main sources of information:
The transformations in the customer journey and in our expertise do not stop there. Naturally, these optimizations have enabled us to keep pace with the company's growth.
I will share with you our future teachings. In the meantime, here are the next steps we would like to achieve:
Ultimately, it was our anticipation of growth that triggered our transformation. And it is this same transformation that supports our growth. The one cannot be separated from the other, just as our departments work in total interdependence with one goal in mind: to continue to bring the voice of our clients to every corridor of Letsignit.
Yes, with the 'Campaigns' offer, it is possible to track the number of clicks on the email signatures of all your employees in the 'Statistics' area of the platform.
You can then access a detailed or global view of the number of clicks on the email signatures of each employee. You can use the search option to target a specific signature or a given period. Finally, you have the possibility to export all statistics to an Excel document.
If you launch campaigns with banners inserted in your email signatures, you can also access their performance via this same space.
With Letsignit, you can easily add social network icons in your collaborators' email signatures and link to your company pages. Also, our "attributes" feature allows you to manage personalized URLs for each of your collaborators such as their individual LinkedIn profile.
And that's not all: you can add links to an appointment-setting application, allow your customers to leave reviews easily, and integrate our 'Chat on Teams' widget to let anyone start a discussion via Microsoft Teams chat.
It’s up to you! As an administrator of the Letsignit platform, you choose whether or not to grant modification rights to your employees. These permissions are managed on an attribute-by-attribute basis, which means that you can decide to allow the employee to change their phone number, but not the address of your premises, for example.
This feature applies to all attributes in your directory, including custom attributes created on Letsignit. When your employees change one or more attributes, your directory is obviously not affected.
It often happens that employees make their email signature their own: custom format, bad fonts, colors inconsistent with the brand standards... all of this has an impact on your brand!
A consistent visual identity is considered authentic and outperforms a perceived weak one by 20%. And, your customers are 2.4 times more likely to buy your products.
With Letsignit, take back control over your brand identity by standardizing all your email signatures. Our tool has many features that allow you to customize your signatures by department, by audience or by subsidiary. Not to mention the possibility of carrying out campaigns within your email signatures thanks to our Campaign offer.
What is the user experience like for our employees?
In both cases:
In short, they have autonomy in their email signature, but you keep control on the field, signatures, and banners they can edit or use.
With our "multi-signature" feature, your employees can benefit from multiple email signatures. No technical manipulation is required. Thanks to our Add-in for Outlook or the desktop app, they can change their email signatures as they wish with just a few clicks.
Regarding the creation of email signatures, you can make several variations such as:
Everything has been thought of to go further in the personalization process based on the recipient of your emails.
If sending emails has an impact, non-optimized email signatures also have an impact. An unsuitable format or an image that is too heavy considerably increases the size of your signatures... and therefore, your emails.
As a responsible economic actor, we contribute to reducing our CO2 emissions and those of our customers in several ways:
As we are increasingly involved in sustainability initiatives, our priority in 2023 is to develop even more green IT functionality.
