Our Value Proposition
Our core belief is that significant dollars are given away due to poor or inadequate interfaces with the customer, which oftentimes causes a direct impact on price/margin, thus profit. Our experience shows us that we can significantly improve the performance of companies by understanding how customers rate the Key Indicators of the customer experience. If poor ratings are left unaddressed, either business is lost or it has to be provided at a lower cost in order to maintain business. This is true of all companies providing a product or service in a competitive marketplace. Unfortunately, many companies respond by cutting price to be “competitive” when the real issues can be addressed by fixing the customer experience through uncovering the negative performance indicators.
Our Mission
EFA provides successful customer facing solutions that ensure the business strategies are met or exceeded.
