We often tend to think of sales when thinking about growing our business. Rarely do we think of investing in customer service to accelerate and solidify business growth.

Customer service can be as important, if not more important, than price or location for potential customers making a decision on which company they want to do business with. In fact, Microsoft states that over [90% of consumers consider customer service as a deciding factor on who they choose to do business with](https://clouddamcdnprodep.azureedge.net/gdc/gdcPiLLQw/original?ocid=mkto_eml_EM582302A1LA1). To understand how customer service can help you grow your business, we need to look at more wild statistics.

Read along to discover why customer service is so important.

- A Microsoft report mentions that [58% of American consumers will switch companies because of poor customer service.](https://clouddamcdnprodep.azureedge.net/gdc/gdcPiLLQw/original?ocid=mkto_eml_EM582302A1LA1)
- Salesforce Research shows that if a company’s customer service is excellent, [**78% of customers are likely to do business again with the company even after a mistake.**](https://c1.sfdcstatic.com/content/dam/web/en_us/www/documents/research/salesforce-state-of-the-connected-customer-4th-ed.pdf)
- Word of mouth is key for growth, and**[ 94% of American customers will recommend a company whose service they rate as “very good.](https://cdncom.cfigroup.com/wp-content/uploads/CFI-contact-center-satisfaction-2020.pdf)**

There are countless many more statistics and they all point to one thing: good customer service translates to business growth. Good customer service can increase word of mouth referrals, client retention, and perceived value of goods and services bought. All of this translates to more profits. Good customer service relies on a company’s ability to be personable, helpful, and quick to provide attention to client needs.

- [**36% of consumers will share their customer service experience**, ](https://cdncom.cfigroup.com/wp-content/uploads/CFI-contact-center-satisfaction-2020.pdf)regardless if good or bad, on social media and review pages.
- [**Increasing customer retention by 5% can translate to 25% to 95% profits increase.**](https://media.bain.com/Images/BB_Prescription_cutting_costs.pdf)
