A Leading Agricultural Co-op Tracks Customer Journey and Uses the
Voice of Its Customers to Make Strategic Decisions
Vovici™,
a Verint® Systems (NASDAQ: VRNT) company and leading provider
of Voice of the Customer and enterprise feedback management (EFM)
solutions, today announced that Southern
States Cooperative selected and
implemented its EFM solution in December 2011 to collect feedback on
customer loyalty.
Southern States is a Richmond, Virginia-based farm supply and service
cooperative. Founded in 1923, it now has more than 300,000
farmer-members. As one of the nation's largest agricultural
cooperatives, it provides a wide range of farm inputs, including
fertilizer, seed, livestock feed, pet food, animal health supplies and
petroleum products, as well as other items for the farm and home. The
cooperative serves its members and non-member customers through more
than 1,200 retail outlets in 23 states.
"Our executive team introduced a company-wide initiative to become a
more customer-centric organization," shares Greg Bucko, manager of
customer insights for Southern States. "We quickly determined the first
and best step was to invest in a Voice of the Customer platform that
could systematically collect and analyze consumer insights and feedback,
enabling us to make informed decisions to prioritize and drive our
future plans."
"When researching the range of vendors, we knew very early on that we
needed much more than just survey software. The collective solution we
invested in needed to handle intricate consumer feedback across the
organization," adds Bucko. "Our ongoing goal is to continue to grow,
engage customers and build loyalty, and we see Vovici as a great
long-term partner that can provide best practices and overall experience
to help ensure we maximize our investment in order to meet both our
business and members' objectives. Without a doubt, Vovici has the best
product and support services that we believe will arm us with the
insight we need, while saving us time and money in the long run."
Vovici solutions are designed to help improve satisfaction and brand
loyalty by helping organizations collaborate with customers through
surveys and online communities to uncover sentiment, satisfaction and
loyalty. Knowledge and insight are the foundations for companies to
inspire action and drive accountability.
"Many prospects begin the review process of enterprise feedback
management solutions based on executive mandates to increase customer
loyalty," says Dave Capuano, vice president of marketing, Vovici. "It's
important to recognize, as companies move through this process, that it
takes a compilation of programs--such as building a customer journey map,
setting up listening posts and deploying surveys--to truly capture the
voice of the customer and allow organizations to take action."
