Umfrage der Kundenzufriedenheit

What is a customer satisfaction survey?

Surveys are filled out by customers after their experience with the support staff. Also known as customer satisfaction surveys. These surveys question the customer about how they were treated by customer representatives. They can come in the form of a chat survey, email survey, and many others.

Not all customers fill out the survey, as some people see it as a waste of time and not worth it, so they skip filling it. Yet, it is valuable information for the company that can be analyzed using customer satisfaction survey software.

All agents try their best to make sure that the customer has a good experience. Sometimes, the customer is so frustrated with the product that he/she may fill in the survey form incorrectly. This is due to the misinterpretation of the customer.

What should a customer satisfaction survey include?

Before you start creating your survey, it is important to determine:

• The tool you’re going to use
• Who are you trying to target with the survey (could be a specific segment of your customers)
• Targets your company will use to evaluate the success of the survey

How to determine targets for the customer satisfaction survey?

Choosing SMART targets before you create your satisfaction survey is crucial.

When you are brainstorming possible targets, make sure they are:

• S – specific
• M – measurable 
• A – achievable 
• R – relevant
• T – time-bound

After that, you can start creating questions suitable for your brand. 

Types of questions:

• Open
• Closed
• Multiple choice
• Rating type of questions
• Scale questions

It is important to carefully evaluate which ones are suitable for your targets. In order, to have a useful survey, you need to make the respondents’ experience easy. Thus, use multiple choice or closed questions to have accurate answers. If unsure give the option for the open answer. But do not overdo it unless you want to lose respondents.

Finally, create your customer satisfaction survey with this simple structure:

1. The first part should be about the respondent’s/customers’ usage of your product or service.

2. The next part should be all about the customer. Determine the important demographics of the customer such as age, location. This helps you determine your target audience too.

3. Use Rating type of questions or Scale questions.

4. Give the respondent an option to express their opinions with open questions.

5. Towards the end, summarize the survey and let the respondent know what will happen with their answers.
