Voice of the Customer Research Solutions

Anova Consulting Group helps organizations improve sales performance and customer retention through independent Voice of the Customer research programs.

Our research solutions gather candid feedback from buyers and clients across the entire customer lifecycle. By conducting independent interviews with prospects, customers, and former clients, we provide leadership teams with insights they cannot obtain internally.

Organizations use these insights to:

  • improve sales win rates
  • reduce customer churn
  • strengthen onboarding and client experience
  • identify at-risk accounts before revenue is lost

refine competitive positioning and messaging

Win / Loss Analysis

Prospects share the complete truth with salespeople about why they lose a deal only 40 percent of the time. Therefore, in 60 percent of new business situations, salespeople do not have a complete and accurate understanding of why they lost.

Why Independent Voice of the Customer Research Matters

Prospects and clients do not always share candid feedback directly with the vendors they are evaluating or working with. Independent interviews conducted by a third-party research firm often yield deeper and more honest insights.

Anova’s research approach helps organizations uncover:

  • how buyers actually make decisions
  • how customers perceive the sales and service experience
  • how competitors are winning in the market
  • what improvements will have the greatest impact on revenue and retention

Who Uses Voice of the Customer Insights

Insights from Voice of the Customer research support decision-making across multiple functions, including:

  • executive leadership
  • sales leadership and frontline managers
  • sales enablement and training teams
  • product marketing and product management
  • customer success and onboarding teams
  • competitive intelligence and strategy groups

When organizations align around direct buyer and customer feedback, they are better positioned to improve both sales performance and long-term customer relationships.
