Today, customer experience (CX), be it B2B or B2C, has taken the centre stage in most business enterprises. Even SMEs and start-up companies have realized the importance of exceptional CX. After all, a great customer experience can delight customers and retain them for repeat purchases.
As per the latest statistics, 80% of B2B customer purchases are determined by CX, while only 20% are attributed to product pricing.
Since its launch in 2002, SAP Business One solutions have assisted SMEs by improving their efficiency and productivity. Additionally, SAP B1 helps in improving the customer experience for B2B customers.
Here is how SAP B1 improves the B2B customer experience.
How SAP B1 Improves B2B Customer Experience
Delays in product deliveries or human errors are known to impact the B2B customer experience. For instance, a manual sales workflow can create bottlenecks in the B2B sales and delivery processes. Manual work can further impact other customer-centric processes such as customer onboarding and processing their purchase orders.
Similarly, human resources can cause errors when performing manual or repetitive tasks, and that can negatively impact CX.
With SAP B1 automation, you can enhance your customers’ B2B experience through an improved customer portal. Here is how the SAP B1 customer portal improves the overall CX:
- Provides customers complete visibility into the B2B sales process and order status.
- Increases transparency of the customer order and sales process.
- Improves speed and efficiency.
- Eliminates any human errors with automated workflows.
Effectively, SAP Business One can automate the customer-centric processes and enhance the CX. Here’s how SAP B1 is improving SAP’s customer experience:
