Client Experience Strategy Drives Law Firm Growth

Customer Research Center explores impact of client experience on loyalty and referral rates with Bagia & Associaties, a leading Philadelphia immigration law firm.

Philadelphia, PA, December 05, 2008 -- Maintaining growth momentum during this global economic downturn requires companies to maintain extraordinarily high levels of client loyalty. A leading factor in client retention, add-on business, and high quality referrals is the client experience provided by law firms during their initial contact with potential clients. The research partnership between the CRC and Bagia & Associates will examine these impacts over the next three months to identify best practices for small firms focused on maintaining and enhancing revenue growth.

Bagia & Associates and the Customer Research Center (CRC) launched the study to determine the impact of the client experience on both retention and referral rates in immigration law practices. The goal of this research partnership is to identify the key drivers of extraordinary client experiences within both prospect and client populations to determine which enhancements to existing processes help companies build client loyalty.

Bagia & Associates, an immigration law firm based in Philadelphia, sees fundamental research as a way to maintain a competitive edge in a difficult economic environment. Jay Bagia, the founder of Bagia & Associates, sees a critical need for a deeper understanding of client expectations. "We have always provided extraordinary service to our clients based on our intuitive understanding of the difficult emotional circumstances and complex legal problems many immigrants experience. Now, we want to move that to the next level and develop an in-depth, quantitative understanding."

"The first step in any process design effort, or marketing needs analysis, is to determine the underlying client expectations through a rigorous, statistically valid analysis," observes Steven Grant, CRC Managing Partner. "Unless you know what clients expect, and design a standard process to drive success, all the other improvements can fall short of their full impact."

The Customer Research Center, with offices in New York, Philadelphia, Stamford and New Jersey focuses on sales process optimization studies for the financial services industry. The partnership with Bagia & Associates represents their first foray into the legal industry and is expected to provide a rich source of benchmark data for future analyses.

"We help make the search for less expensive insurance coverage more effective by eliminating the time spent finding multiple agents, calling and comparing their offerings. US Insurance Online makes it easy to get in touch with multiple insurance agents who can sell you the products you need."

"Emails We Love"-Marketing Emails That Work

Ilfracombe, United Kingdom, November 26, 2008 -- It's easy to poke fun of companies that send out mangled, mistyped and just plain horrific marketing emails. But you don't often see companies that get email marketing right singled out for praise. Which is why Catalogue/e-business magazine in its 24 November issue is highlighting "Emails we love".

"An effective marketing email, by definition, is one that encourages recipients to click through," says Sherry Chiger, Catalogue/e-business editorial director. "The emails we spotlight in our issue encouraged even our jaded staff to respond to them."

Gifts and gadgets marketer Firebox.com won the most raves, for an email chock-full of features, including animated product imagery and links to the customer-submitted Photo of the Week and Video of the Week. The latter, depicting Lego figurines working a mini Henry Desktop Vacuum, was so entertaining that the Catalogue/e-business staff forwarded it within and outside the office-"viral marketing in action," says Chiger.

Other noteworthy marketing emails include one from fashion etailer Asos promoting a lunchtime-only sale ("great for creating a sense of urgency," Chiger notes), a BeautyBay.com email graphically pointing out recent improvements to its website, and one from bedding specialist Feather & Black whose main photo focuses more on a beautiful, scantily clad woman than on the products for sale ("one way to interest men in its promotion").

"Marketers aiming to punch up their email response could do worse than to look to these companies' efforts for inspiration," Chiger concludes.

About Catalogue/e-business:
Published monthly, Catalogue/e-business is the only trade magazine covering the UK print catalogue, ecommerce and cross-channel commerce industries. It also produces two free fortnightly enewsletters, Insight and Cross-Atlantic Insight, and maintains a website at www.catalog-biz.com.
