“Satisfaction Services is in business to make sure other companies are successful and I’m excited about the opportunity to play a role in their accomplishments,” said Jon Kasman, owner and managing partner of Satisfaction Services’ Houston office. “Our customized quality and service evaluation programs are a simple and highly effective way for companies to see themselves through the eyes of their customers.”
“When customers receive outstanding service, they feel good about shopping with you,” said Mike Albert, founder and CEO of Satisfaction Services. “Those customers will tell all their friends about the great experience they had with you. Eventually, you have more loyal customers, increased customer frequency and higher profits.”
According to Albert, measuring and monitoring the customer experience will ensure that every customer who walks through the door receives great service.
“People will do more of what you inspect than what you expect,” Albert said.
Kasman says that he was impressed by Satisfaction Services’ non-traditional business philosophy. Instead of trying to catch employees in the act of doing something wrong, the company designs quality and service evaluation programs focused on highlighting what employees are doing right. By focusing on positive performance, operators can recognize employees doing a job well while providing a more balanced approach to redirecting employee performance.
“Identifying the positive things employees are doing helps build morale and does not make employees feel apprehensive about being evaluated,” Kasman said. “Instead, they are more likely to do a better job and will treat each customer like a mystery shopper.”
With an extensive background in marketing and hospitality, Kasman understands the value of information that can be collected from quality and service evaluation programs and how that information can be used to monitor trends and increase profits. He managed every part of the customer experience at Westin Hotels Houston, from the front office to the management team. As part of the marketing division at Hewlett Packard, he worked with product and channel marketing, business planning, forecasting, and industry analyst relations.
