The Customer Relationship InventoryTM (CRI) is an insightful assessment tool that measures a salesperson’s skill levels in terms of relating, discovering, advocating, and supporting, as perceived by the people he or she serves. Participants will receive useful feedback and development planning based on their customers’ perspective.
Customer expectations are heightened every day with the entrance of each new competitor.
Your salespeople need to understand what customers want, then recommend solutions that meet or exceed their expectations. Positive perceptions of your salespeople—in the eyes of your customers—are vital in a marketplace where customers can replace you with a phone call or the click of a mouse. The Customer Relationship Inventory allows salespeople and their managers to gain valuable insight into their customers’ perceptions. The feedback can increase a salesperson’s motivation to improve selling behaviors and focus positive activities in areas of perceived developmental need.
The Customer Relationship Inventory is an online, multi-rater assessment designed for salespeople and is distributed to five customers who have recently made a purchase. The results provide participants with personalized feedback and development planning, as well as a basis for management coaching and guiding sales strategy. It can be used as a stand-alone individual diagnosis and planning tool, or as an enhancement to a sales improvement program such as The Counselor SalespersonTM. If used for organization-wide research of all salespeople, consulting and solutions can be developed and implemented. The Customer Relationship Inventory is a valid, research-based instrument that has been tested and designed by accepted research standards.
The Customer Relationship Inventory provides a comprehensive, skill-based measurement of the four basic skills of the Counselor Process:
