(Atlanta, Ga, Feb 27, 2012) Customer Results LLC launches partnership with PageFreezer, a leading solution provider in Social Media & Website Archiving.

“Customer Results, a leading provider of Marketing, Sales and Service improvement solutions, is pleased to announce our partnership with PageFreezer”, said Graham Clark, Partner at Customer Results. “PageFreezer is a leading solution provider addressing the rapidly expanding demand for archiving, managing and replaying of online content in both Social Media properties and Websites to meet regulatory compliance, risk and legal management and customer experience requirements”.

“Customer Results clients’ Multi-Channel Customer Interaction strategies increasingly focus on Social Media and Web channels. Both outbound and interactive communications via these channels increasingly need to be treated the same as voice to voice, document-based or email communications”, Clark said, “We are seeing a growing number of legal cases related to Social Media communications and regulatory compliance enforcement around Social Media sites in Pharmaceutical, Food Products, Healthcare and the Financial Services industry.”

“We see compliance requirements dramatically increasing for Financial Services companies requiring compliance with SEC, FINRA, SOX, and other “document” retention centric regulations, Food Products companies subject to the FDA‘s enforcement of regulations that deal with product claims and labeling including compliance (particularly the FD&C Act, section 403(r)(1)(A))”, Clark says, “This area of Social Media and Websites compliance management has received little attention. Our clients must have an audit trail of their online presence so they can understand and demonstrate what was communicated to who and when”

“Additionally, leading Customer Experience Management companies are starting to take snapshots of Social Media platforms so they can track the evolution of a conversation and identify sales and service opportunities and moment of opportunity, “ Clark said, this becomes even more significant as feeds link social media conversations and Blogs into the company Websites making those communications ever more formal and accountable”

“We know we are soon going to see the first multi-million dollar legal case in the USA surrounding a Healthcare or Food company claiming communication by Social Media synched via RSS feeds to the company webpage under the Community tab providing information which damaged patients’ health or an Investment Company providing advisory discussion boards in the same way. Risk Management leaders and attorneys are justifiable paranoid about this and need to be advising their clients appropriately”, Clark said, “We have also not even started to explore case law related to the legal ramifications and liability to a company of a member of the public leaving a comment on a Facebook Page that creates damaging action on behalf of another consumer, this issue came up recently in a discussion of insurance companies setting up networks of Facebook pages to build community with independent brokers”.

“It is critical that companies protect themselves by mitigating the risks associated with this by taking regular daily snapshots of their Social Media pages, Websites and Blogs”, Clark said “PageFreezer provides a highly cost effective solution to this that can be up and running in days because it is an entirely SaaS solution. Major brands are already leading the way and we look forward to bringing this powerful business tool to our clients. For thousands of companies this is a hidden and significant risk”.

Michael Riedyk of PageFreezer stated “Customer Results brings a unique and powerful understanding of the Impacts of Social Media as the latest Channel for Customer Interaction. We are delighted to join Customer Results in addressing their predominantly Southern USA and Eastern USA portfolio of companies. We are excited about the opportunity this presents for PageFreezer, Customer Results and our clients”.

(Atlanta, Ga Feb 27, 2012) “Customer Results, a leading provider of Marketing, Sales and Service is pleased to announce a partnership with Care4CC, a global leader in Contact Center & Multichannel Customer Interaction Business Quality Assurance”, said Graham Clark, Partner at Customer Results.

“Many of our clients refrain from performance testing their customer interaction operations and infrastructure due to the significant costs of services from the few available solution providers. This failure to test and monitor the environment adds significant customer satisfaction risk, operational risks and even personal compensation and career risk for the associated sales and service executives”, Clark said. “We are excited to partner with Care4CC, which provides a world class Audit, Load Testing and Monitoring solution for 100+ agent contact centers at a highly affordable price and will allow many more companies to assure their customer facing business operations are performing appropriately.”

“While an increasing percentage of our clients apply Quality Assurance software to their agents and representatives to maintain high levels of individual agent performance few of them are performing regular audits and monitoring of the entire multi-channel customer interaction and contact center operation to give the appropriate level of confidence in their business services.” Clark said, “This is especially important for our network of Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) clients where the ability to demonstrate independent quality process certification can make the difference between acquiring or losing a new prospect and retaining or losing an existing customer. Many companies outsourcing contact center services require an external performance certification. We look forward to a long and successful partnership with Care4CC”

Lode Vande Sande, CEO at Care4CC said “Customers have difficulties managing the complex contact center platforms today and don't have the resources or the capability to drive to a root cause analysis. Our customers tell us that we identify all of the key problems in a single day while they take a year to get there. CARE4CC is pleased to cooperate with Customer Results as we have complementary businesses approaches and Customer Results will help us gain access to key customers in the US market.”

Customer Results LLC launches partnership with Customer Relationship Metrics (CRM), leading provider of Managed Business Intelligence Services

Atlanta, Ga 15th February, 2012

“Customer Results, a leading provider of Marketing, Sales and Service improvement solutions, is excited to announce our partnership with Customer Relationship Metrics (CRM)” said Graham Clark, Partner at Customer Results. “Since its foundation in 1993 at Purdue University, Dr. Jodie Monger, a renowned consumer scientist, and her team have been applying scientific methods to unlock actionable business insights in Big Data and today focus on a number of key customer impacting areas, such as Social Media, Speech Analytics, Customer Experience Analytics, Text Analytics, Desktop Activity Analytics, and Quality Monitoring Analytics”.

“As an early evangelist of the application of Speech Analytics to gain Business Intelligence for Contact Center Operations optimization and improvement, I personally experienced the major constraint of many of these advanced technologies being the availability of sufficient skilled professionals. As the issues being addressed become ever more complex, that gap is wider than ever”, Clark said, “Customer Relationship Metrics specializes in providing turnkey Managed Services to avoid the talent availability issues which stop many companies from realizing the benefits of these exciting technologies, an issue especially prevalent for the types of growing companies where Customer Results specializes”

“The technology solution providers in the segment create significant noise in the market but rarely discuss the need for Managed Services companies. Technology salespeople are incented to sell hardware and software, never mind effectively using the technology after the sale. The mission of Customer Results is to help our clients understand additional solution options over and above the technology and that includes the critical component of execution using Managed Services.

Jodie Monger, CEO and President at Customer Relationship Metrics said, ”I see the potential of working with Customer Results as an opportunity to leverage the skills of both organizations to do more with our core competencies. We have been solving data problems for nearly two decades for various types and sizes and we look to Customer Results as a key resource to help us do more of that.”
