Five Strategies for Retirement CX.
- Make it convenient. We live in an increasingly digital world – and capitalizing on that can dramatically increase retirement-program enrollment. For example, enrollment opt-ins are 75% more likely when communications include a text short code for anywhere, anytime, instant enrollment.
- Make it simple. There’s an extensive body of work that explores choice. The bottom line: Provide too many options, and analysis paralysis kicks in. Automatic enrollment and plan design that narrow choices for enrollees and existing participants alike can help boost both participation and satisfaction. Effective plan level/sponsor level defaults may be:
- Age-based
- Allocation-based
- Personalized
- Pre-built into packages
- Make it right. When it comes to user interfaces, the devil is in the details. From buttons to colors to fonts and more, it pays to do the customer-facing work it takes to create an optimal self-service experience. Usability is key, both for plan participants and for those who provide them with customer service.
- Make it real. So much happens in real-time today. Consumers expect it. So, ensure that the people who need to know – the marketers and experience specialists within your organization – have the real-time visibility they require. A constant, continuous feedback loop keeps organizations on top of performance and participant needs.
- Make it secure. Data privacy and security is paramount. The more confident participants are in your providers, solutions and systems, the more information they’ll share. The more information they share, the better you can serve them.
