Success Story: MonkeySports

MonkeySports, Inc., established in 1999 as a single hockey store California, is now a leading online retailer of premium ice and roller hockey, goalie, lacrosse, and baseball equipment. They also have eight brick-and-mortar retail stores in North America and two in Sweden.

Challenges

MonkeySports, Inc. experienced challenges affecting brand and customer satisfaction, with service inconsistencies being reported across varying locations by customers. This led to dissatisfaction and a decrease in brand reputation. They also struggled to accurately measure customer satisfaction, making it difficult to identify areas needing improvement.

Solutions

CustomerOptix implemented a CX Evaluation program that was rolled out gradually across locations, starting with the busiest stores. The program began with on-site purchase and return evaluations, later expanding to inquiry-only evaluations—all of which provided a more comprehensive view of the customer journey. Using multiple evaluation types helped identify areas of opportunity and assess consistency across interactions.

Results Summary

Improved Customer Satisfaction - Since implementing the CX program, significant improvements were seen in both customer satisfaction and brand reputation.

Detailed Reporting Helped Identify Issues - Evaluator feedback provided valuable insights into their customers’ experience with their brand, making it easier to identify and solve problem areas needing improvement.
