CUSTOMER CATEGORIZED
HSBC Personal Banking categorized customers by their "Total Relationship Balance". To make it simple, it is the total amount of money flowing between the bank and the customer, including money deposits, investments, insurance, etc.
KIND OF CUSTOMER
Top - this is the customer segment the customers of which are those who have a total relationship balance of over one billion Hong Kong Dollars. They are HSBC's Premier Customers, and are the top 5% of highly valuable customers of HSBC Personal Banking.
Big - this is the customer segment of those who have a total relationship balance of over one million Hong Kong Dollars. They are HSBC's Premier Customers as well and are in the next 15% of highly valuable customers Medium - this is the customer segment of those who have a total relationship balance of over twenty thousand Hong Kong Dollars. They are the Power Vantage Customers of HSBC. They are the largest group amongst the customer segments, and make up 60% of HSBC's Personal Banking customers.
Small - this is the customer segment of those who have a total relationship balance below twenty thousand Hong Kong Dollars. They are the normal customers of HSBC Personal Banking. 20% of HSBC Personal Banking customers fall into this segment. In actives - those customers whose account status is "Dormant" or "Closed". Accounts with a dormant status are those accounts that have not been in operation for a long period of time, say 2 years. Accounts with a closed status are those that have been formally closed by the customers. Prospects - those customers who are using HSBC products other than Personal Banking, such as Corporate Banking. The bank has some data about them, and has already established communications with him/her through their use of that product. Suspects - the customers of other banks. HSBC has collected some data about them, but has not yet established communications with them. As is the case in this fast changing and dynamic financial world, changes will occur due both to local and global factors, and the figure of "Total Relationship Balance" in defining the customer segments should be changed accordingly
One of the main purposes of implementing a CRM program is to retain the profitable customers.
By performing the Customer Experience Management (CEM), the company can find out the critical needs of and decisive stages in dealing with the customers, make resource planning, marketing, as well as company strategies effectively and efficiently. Under CEM, customer critical moments are defined accordingly under each part of the customer process cycle, which are the PREpurchase/consumption, AT-purchase/consumption, and POSTpurchase/consumption. Each customer process cycle will have its own customer multi-channel touch points, and for simplification, they are grouped into "Physical Touch", "Call", "Internet" and "Others".
AT PURCHASE PHASE
In the At-purchase Phase, there are ten customer touch-points, which include: . Branch - Make Transaction . Customer Service Center - Customer Package Upgrading . On-site service - Contract Signing . Events - Sales Road Show . Inbound Calls - Place Order by Phone . Outbound Calls - Tele-Sales . Inbound Email - Make Transaction by Email . Outbound Email - e-Sales . Portal - e-Banking . Advertising - Invitation to Use the Service
Due to the different needs of customers in their Prepurchase, At-purchase and Post-purchase, customer critical moment will be different in every customer process cycle. For HSBC Personal Banking, the critical customer moments are Financial Analysis for Pre-purchase Making Transaction for At-purchase Customer Enquires for Post-purchase
However, due to the large numbers of its customer base, HSBC's Personal Banking service cannot meet the customers' need for "fast" service all the time: there are always long queues at HSBC branches that keep customers waiting for over 30 minutes. After considering the costs and effectiveness factors against the customer satisfaction factors, instead of opening more branches HSBC decided to improve this critical customer interaction moment in the following ways:
Dividing customers into customer groups, serving them separately according to their needs and value to the bank (similar to the customer segmentation of the previous section). Changing general service branches into service centers for specific functions, for example, HP Centers, Mortgage Advice Centers, Day and Night Centers, etc.
Enhancing the automated channels which include the ATM network, internet banking service, 24-hour phone banking centre, etc.
For customer enquiries to the customer service centre, as mentioned in the At-purchase process, there are dozens of Day and Night Centers in Hong Kong to specially deal with customer enquiries. For the inbound customer enquiry calls, once again by considering the costs and effectiveness factors against the customer satisfaction factors, HSBC is moving its customer call center to a lower cost city.
After finding out about the best customers, and about their customer experience (critical moments), Customer Relationship Management is ready to undergo implementation by working together with the other four Customer Relationship Management factors, which are strategy, people, process and technology, a companywide kick-off should be made by the top management of HSBC.
MECHANISM
Having a tailor-made version of the CRM 3C Method that is best suited to the latest company conditions is essential as it will directly affect how successful the Customer Relationship Management can be. Therefore, adopting a good feedback mechanism, repeating cycles of running the implementation, and making adjustments, are all essential steps.
OTHER ELEMENTS
There are five elements in a Customer Relationship Management implementation; they are customer, strategy, people, process and technology. Although this presentation has focused on the Customer, it is good to always bear in mind that all of the other four elements are important as well. Successful Customer Relationship Management cannot be done without anyone of them.
