ClearlyRated Survey Process
for HR Service Providers

ClearlyRated-no-tagline-rgb

The only Net Promoter® Score survey package designed specifically for HR service providers.

Step 1: Prepare your clients

Never underestimate the power of preparation.

Notifying your clients about a survey ahead of time gives them the chance to prepare, and increases their likelihood of responding to the survey when they receive it.

Additionally, pre-survey communication gives you the opportunity to remind clients just how much their feedback means to your company - which could influence survey results in and of itself (87% of clients say that simply being asked for feedback improves their perception of their HR provider).

Step 2: Collect feedback

ClearlyRated surveys are typically "in the field" (i.e. open for your clients to respond to) for a period of 2 weeks. During that time, you'll have a lot to keep you (and your team) productive.

Follow up with at-risk clients

  • Real-time 'Detractor Alerts' notify you of at-risk clients as soon as they report their dissatisfaction.
  • 'Issue Tracking' empowers you to follow up on reported issues and track Detractor resolutions.

Celebrate service wins

  • Employee 'Shout Outs' are triggered when Promoters recognize a specific person on your team who went above and beyond for them. 
  • Use real-time Shout Out notifications to recognize service leaders across the firm and fuel excitement for the survey process. 

Give non-responsive clients a nudge

  • Maximize the number of clients who respond to your survey to eliminate blind spots and get the most accurate assessment of satisfaction.
  • It can require a personal touch to communicate just how important clients' feedback is to you and your company, so plan to reach out personally while the survey is in the field.

Step 3: Maximize the ROI of your survey

Many HR service firms fail to realize the opportunities to go beyond measurement with NPS.

At ClearlyRated, we believe a well-designed NPS survey program should place your firm’s service levels at the center of your marketing strategy - from retention and account growth to differentiation and improving your online search results.

Close the Loop

  • Make survey results and key findings available to your internal team. 
  • Communicate to your clients about what you learned and what you'll change. 
  • Commit to, and measure progress against, key initiatives that will improve service quality across the firm.

Take action on client feedback

  • One of the biggest mistakes HR service providers make is spending more time designing and analyzing their client survey than they do taking action on client feedback! 
  • Your clients took time out of their days to communicate their feedback to you - time to do something with it. 

Take client ratings and testimonials to the field

  • The quality of service you provide is nearly 2x more important to prospects than the cost of working with you.
  • More than 1 in 3 buyers of outsourced HR services say that client satisfaction scores and ratings influence their decision to work with a firm. 
  • 50% of buyers say that testimonials have a positive influence on their decision to work with a provider. 

Manage your ClearlyRated profile

  • Client survey responses will populate your firm's ClearlyRated listing with real-time star ratings and testimonials.
