Over the past few years, we have gained a deeper understanding of the decision-making process of digitally advanced consumers with regard to product usage, extending product lifespan, and assessing warranty options versus replacing an item with a different brand. In terms of repairing a faulty product, consumers often take several irregular paths from going through the painfully long process of searching for purchase receipts, lengthy customer support calls and prolonged email cycles, to replacing the product from a competitor brand. This is normal in conventional paper-based warranty management and manual claim process practices.
Fortunately, you can save them from this frustrating experience by having an accessible, digital, and sustainable warranty management system. For you as a business, it’s affordable and sustainable, helps build brand loyalty and increases repeat purchases. From a manufacturer’s point of view, a digital warranty management solution makes cost predictable and affordable, elevates the brand experience and collects significant data about product performance.
In this post, we’ve shared five reasons why you need a digitised warranty management system to enhance your customers’ experience, increase transparency, and streamline warranty management. Let’s get started:
Globally, consumers have difficulties understanding their warranty rights. Most of them discard the documentation due to the complicated and jargon-filled nature of the terms and conditions. Digitised warranty systems simplify this issue by converting the terms and conditions into easy-to-understand language and presenting them in a user-friendly manner.
Digital warranty management simplifies the claim management process through automation, leading to a significant reduction in claim resolution time. Your customers can quickly and easily register their products, submit warranty claims, and track the status, all from their computer or mobile device from anywhere and anytime.
This also saves you 2% to 4% of your annual revenue by reducing fraudulent claims.
93% of consumers are likely to make a second purchase if they experience excellent customer service. This is one of the biggest perks of having a digitised warranty management solution. Here’s how:
Digital warranty management software gathers and analyses data throughout the consumer onboarding, product and warranty registration, and claim management processes. Here’s how it helps with improving the overall consumer experience:
Having a digital system for warranty management reduces carbon emissions by eliminating paper waste and lowering e-waste over time, one of the influencing factors in climate change. Given that 76% of Americans are expecting companies to take measures against climate change, having such a mechanism in place will not only honour their rights as consumers but will also help you tap into a new customer base.
All in all, having an accessible, digital and sustainable warranty management system can play a significant role in empowering your customers and honouring their warranty rights.
