Data analytics can play a significant role in improving extended service contract sales among retailers. Businesses can gain insights into customer behavior and trends, which can be used to improve the design of extended service contracts, target marketing campaigns, and optimize pricing.
To help you decide what data collection is important to measure your program, Centricity experts have identified five key metrics that will allow you to look at the performance and effectiveness of your extended service contract program:
- Attachment rates
- Sales volume
- Renewal rates
- Customer satisfaction
- Profit margin
Here are some specific examples of how crucial data collected by Centricity and our retail partners can be analyzed to improve extended service contract programs:
- Identifying High-Value Customers: Data analytics can be used to identify customers who are more likely to purchase an extended service contract by analyzing factors such as the customer’s age, income, and product ownership history. Businesses can then target these customers with marketing campaigns.
- Personalizing Offers: By tracking sales trends and identifying opportunities to increase sales, retailers can analyze data on customer demographics, purchase history, product selection, brand preference and repair history to target customers who are more likely to purchase product protection.
- Increase Customer Satisfaction: By utilizing surveys and social media monitoring tools, data can be used to track customer satisfaction and identify customers who are more likely to renew their contracts. This information can be used to improve customer service and develop loyalty programs.
- Reduce Costs: Centricity has collected extensive data on frequency, severity and volume of repairs by product and brand. Advanced data analytics on repair costs, marketing costs, and administrative costs can be used to identify areas where retailers and customers can save money.
