Customer engagement is everything in business and this is because of the increased presence of peer research and online reviews, the existing customer’s power to influence has hit the roof. If the customers come to trust the brand, they become loyal, and if they are loyal, they are likely to become an ambassador for the brand. It could be through recommendations or sharing brand specific content with others in their network and ‘word of mouth’ is now the strongest and most influential mode of communication.

In our experience, we have seen that customers influence the revenue directly and have a straight impact in sustaining existing revenue and are key to unlocking future revenue. Customer ambassadors can help build favourability for a brand by writing online reviews, referring prospects, increasing social engagement with content and even creating content, or simply rating their experience at the outlet. The possibilities are endless however it is heavily dependent on company needs and strategies.

Many companies today are evolving by adhering to customer feedbacks and are engaging more with customers and are leveraging them to spread the word. Identifying and nurturing brand influencers have become a priority similar to up selling and renewing. Customer
engagement is the itinerary to every important business objective. It is the pathway to everything good that a business could want ranging from customer loyalty, customer purchases to customer ambassadorship for brands.

At Keventers, the legacy of crafting experiences to build a mark amongst our customers runs strong. From the moment of entering the Keventers outlet, to leaving with a memory to take back home i.e. our personalized thematic milkshake bottles; we offer the Keventers experience to our customers.
