Providing proper customer service in any industry is mandatory, but more so when you’re an insurance adjuster. Adjusters deal with clients who range from being annoyed to being at the lowest point of their lives, so it matters how we handle their claims from start to finish.

 

How soon should you respond to a claim request? What are some of the metrics you can use to calculate your response time? Should you provide customer service surveys?

 

In today’s episode, I share some of the steps you can take to make sure you’re providing proper customer service without sacrificing your business schedule. I describe what cycle time is and why it’s an important metric in our industry. I explain some of the factors involved when a claim becomes a bad experience for the customer. I also share how our business has fared during the lockdown and how we successfully implemented virtual adjusting.

 

 

 

"Cycle time is easily measured by an Excel spreadsheet."
