1.    Internal Customer Satisfaction

Who are your internal customers of the organization? You may find them around you easily. Co-workers, Colleagues and whoever come to you in your da-to-day activities, are your internal customers within the organization.

Satisfying them is also very important for the organization. These people often don’t have a choice with whom they work. Therefore, you need to put as much effort to please internal customers as you do external ones. If not whole organization suffers.

If you focus on improving internal customer satisfaction, you will create a more productive and engaged workforce happily customer-centric.

 

2. External Customer Satisfaction 

An External Customer is a person who is not directly connected to your organization other than by purchasing your product or service. This customer could be one-time purchaser or a person who have you worked with long-term and to whom you have provided add-one or customization options. External customers are also known as “Clients” or “Accounts”


By treating co-workers, colleagues, or even vendors as customers and focusing on timelines, service, empathy and delivery, internal terms can also develop a Customer First mentality. Celebrating internal wins as much as we celebrate external victories, builds a service culture throughout the entire organization. By providing positive experience, a long-term relationship can be built with the external customers.
