Top Ten Client Feedback Questions
Overview
Looking to gather valuable feedback from your clients about the products and services you offer? Here’s a list of ten insightful questions to consider. Choose those that best suit your needs. Remember, the goal is to ask and listen without interrupting.
Context and Use
As the program chairperson for my SCORE chapter, I'm always on the lookout for engaging topics for our meetings. A fellow business counselor suggested inviting clients to provide feedback on our counseling techniques. We asked these clients the first five questions from this list, gaining significant insights.
As the year ends, you might be thinking about ways to enhance client feedback. Here are ten questions you might find useful. Choose the ones that fit your situation best. Remember to listen attentively without interruption.
1. What was the greatest benefit you derived from my service?
This question helps identify what’s working well. Sometimes the responses are surprising. For instance, we learned that our clients preferred having more than three counselors. As a result, we've lifted the restriction on the number of counselors.
2. What would you like to see more of when you work with me?
Consistency matters. Our panelists mentioned they appreciated when counselors shared their business backgrounds. Ensuring consistency in your service delivery is crucial.
3. How could I improve my service?
Clients often suggest improvements you haven’t considered. In our case, clients expressed interest in email support between face-to-face sessions, which was easy to implement.
4. Is there anything you would like to see me stop doing?
This question provides clients with the chance to highlight unhelpful practices. Clients suggested meetings at their place of business for more convenience?"a simple yet previously overlooked option.
5. Is there anything you didn’t get from my service that you were looking for?
Here’s an opportunity to learn about additional services clients might desire. One client wanted a counselor with a specific business background, prompting us to create a database of counselor expertise.
6. Has my staff treated you with care, attention, and courteousness?
For service providers with administrative staff, this question is vital. Clients may not always voice concerns unless prompted.
7. Is there an issue that I have not spent enough time on for you?
Clients may have lingering questions about past issues. This question allows them to revisit and address unresolved topics.
8. Am I doing what you want me to do?
Periodically check to ensure you’re meeting client expectations, not just assuming you are.
9. Where have we been less than proactive in addressing your concerns?
Clients may have broader definitions of proactivity. This question can reveal new business opportunities and areas for improvement.
10. Is our billing clear? Are you getting value for your money?
Billing clarity is crucial for client satisfaction. Ensure your invoices accurately reflect the value provided.
