Customer service is at the heart of everything for First Intuition. Providing a bespoke and flexible personal service is one of its key differentiators, something that stands the business apart from competitors. First Intuition sought a way to showcase this differentiator, while simultaneously improving its user experience, as well as boosting traffic and sales.
Feefo reviews increased users’ time spent on site by 10%.
First Intuition chose Feefo to collect and display trusted customer reviews and achieve its business goal of maintaining and displaying high customer service levels. First Intuition invited its customers to rate and review its service. The company then displayed this content using JavaScript within the header of its website so that it could be seen and accessed from every page. First Intuition also placed its service rating prominently next to key pages to encourage conversions.
To improve the experience of First Intuition’s website visitors, the company displayed trusted reviews from Feefo prominently on every single page of the site. This gave new and existing customers a trusted source of information about the service, and encouraged them to spend longer on-site, visiting more pages, before converting.
As a Google Licensed Content Partner, Feefo helped First Intuition to achieve Google Seller Ratings, to drive more qualified traffic to the site. The addition of star ratings within AdWords ads can increase click-through rate (CTR). Finally, to make the most of its excellent service rating and drive more conversions, First Intuition displayed its service rating close to its call toaction. This technique was carried out on other key areas of the website, such as the ‘How to book’ page.
