1. Create A ‘Service Profit Chain’ To Help Performance In These Interesting Times
There is no doubt that the vast majority of Australian businesses are operating in interesting times. There are a number of factors at play.
To navigate through this ‘maze’ of uncertainties, businesses need to embrace strategies to develop a ‘healthy and engaged workforce’, which will encourage ‘loyal customers’, and should result in a healthy bottom line – a ‘service profit chain’ (a term originally coined by Harvard Business School in the 1990’s).
The challenges that business owners need to face are:
- What experiences do you want your customers to have when they do business with you?
- What type of culture are your customers going to encounter when they do business with you?
- What are your business’ goals?
- What’s the philosophy of why you are in business?
This will undoubtedly lead you to the development of people. To be successful in business, you need to develop capable people. Attention to the development of capable people will lead to productivity improvements. Greater satisfaction and team loyalty will then contribute to the profitability of the business.
The other big benefit is, that this will lead to, greater customer service and satisfaction. An investment in people to deliver greater services will result in business improvement.

- What do you want your customers to experience when they deal with your business?
- What type of culture exists within your business?
- From a team member’s point of view, culture is about:
- management style;
- team work;
- developing pride in what is achieved within your business; and
- an appropriate behaviour must be experienced at every level (from the most junior team member to the most senior classification).
- From a team member’s point of view, culture is about:
Consideration needs to be given to rewards, but rewards are not all monetary. In many cases, an appropriate reward can be acknowledgement and recognition of a job well done and, ultimately, allowing the team members to participate in the fruits of the enterprise, thus creating an overall sharing in the benefits of the organisation’s success.
- How will these strategies show themselves?
- Team members will solve problems.
- Creating ideas should lead to greater innovation within the business.
- Team members should not be scared to take the initiative and go the extra mile to solve customers’ problems.
The effect of these activities will be shown in customer surveys, the business’ results and, ultimately, in the bottom line. This will contribute to a better retention rate and a more inclusive culture within the business.

How should you go about implementing this?
- Empower front-line people to fix the problem without having to refer complaints or suggestions from customers further up the line.
- Why not have a policy of ‘just fix it’?
- Some organisations are using technology to add value to their customers’ experiences by creating activities, such as ‘chat facilities’, to hear about and solve customers’ problems.
- Drive positive behaviour in team members by being absolutely clear on the purpose of the business.
What doesn’t work?
- People not being appreciated.
- Insufficient communication, especially to the front-line team members.
- Inappropriate behaviour at various levels, senior levels in particular.
The ‘service profit chain’s’ ultimate goal is customer loyalty. Loyal customers think differently about an organisation, because there is now commitment to a brand. This can lead to referrals to other potential customers. In many cases, loyal customers are easier to deal with, and price is not a factor to them. Loyal customers have already decided that they want your services, as long as the prices are reasonable. From a professional point of view, it’s how you add value and how your customers enjoy doing business with you that leads to ultimately gaining loyal customers.
What can you do to develop loyal customers?
- Have discussions within your organisation.
- Know differences between your various customers.
- Understand your customers complaints and how to solve them.
- Follow-up phone calls after a job is complete.
- Encourage customers to provide feedback
- Develop internal goals that need to be set relative to dealing with customers.
- Create key performance indicators and measure KPIs, as appropriate, on a daily, weekly and monthly basis.
- Encourage success by rewarding positive behaviours within the team.
- Encourage and lead the workforce to build customer loyalty.

Ultimately, all of these activities will benefit the overall performance and improve the bottom line profitability of the business. There is no doubt that we are facing tough economic times at present. In tough times, businesses need to utilise all of the resources they can gather to ensure that the business is successful.
Now is the time for a complete review of your business activities to see where the improvements need to be made, with particular emphasis on these two key areas, happy, engaged workforce and happy loyal customers.
