Have you heard about her?
Customer Success (CS) is a strategy used by companies to ensure satisfaction and success of its customers. In the franchising sector, this methodology can be adapted to ensure franchisee satisfaction and, consequently, the success of the network as a whole.
Yungas is a technology and innovation company that has developed a Single Management and Communication System for Large Chains based on the CS methodology adapted to franchising, using the Health Score as a basis.
We've written this article to discuss this methodology that enhances the results of franchise networks and how Yungas applies this strategy to ensure the continued success of its clients.
Health Score for Franchise Networks
The Health Score is the foundation of the CS methodology in franchise networks. It allows you to predict the network's risks and opportunities based on real data on franchisee satisfaction, standardization, revenue, and engagement.
This methodology emphasizes that instead of 'putting out fires' by solving problems that are occurring, companies can prevent and act proactively and predictively to ensure the success of the franchise network as a whole.
The 4 pillars of the CS methodology for franchise networks
Satisfaction
Through NPS (Net Promoter Score) surveys conducted on the Yungas platform, franchisees' perceptions of the franchisor's work can be gathered. The Yungas team monitors the results of these surveys and implements action plans to ensure franchisee satisfaction.
Engagement
Each franchisee's participation in the franchisor's activities is an important indicator of their health in relation to the franchise network. Yungas measures each franchisee's engagement through their interaction on the platform (responses, reactions, NPS surveys, etc.) and works proactively to ensure franchisee engagement and participation.
Standardization
Standardization and a consistent end-customer experience across all units are crucial to the success of a franchise network. Yungas' Checklist module measures this indicator for each franchisee and proactively ensures that all franchisees follow the same practices and standards as the network.
Faturamento
The revenue of each franchised unit is an important indicator for the franchisor to assess the financial health of the network as a whole. Yungas innovated and created an easily accessible revenue control module so that franchisees can update their financial results and the franchisor can evaluate this data continuously and proactively.
Understand the Health Score better
Yungas applies the Customer Success methodology in a personalized way for each client, taking into account the specificities of each network. Based on the results gathered, Yungas' implementation proceeds as a project, with a strategic timeline and monitoring focused on franchisee success. A culture of franchisee success is one of the premises of Yungas' Customer Success methodology, and all network actions must adhere to this premise to ensure the success of the network as a whole.
Furthermore, Yungas offers a comprehensive platform to facilitate the work of the franchisor's managers and customer service team. The software centralizes all processes in one place, providing all the metrics and information necessary for informed analysis and operational control.
