Infinity Nation | Growth Conversations That Matter

Rebecca Griffiths, Founder & CEO, Primis | The importance of caring about your customers post purchase Ep.8

Infinity Nation Season 1 Episode 8

In this episode, host Al Keck sits down with Rebecca Griffiths the Founder & CEO of Primis, a customer experience expert with extensive background at Amazon and e-commerce startups, to discuss why the post-purchase phase is critical for business growth, profitability, and customer loyalty. They explore how brands often neglect their customers after the purchase, missing out on a vital revenue stream and the opportunity to build lasting relationships.

Key Topics Discussed:

  • The Gap in Post-Purchase Customer Care:
    Businesses focus heavily on customer acquisition but often neglect nurturing customers after the buy button is clicked. This leads to lost opportunities for repeat purchases and higher lifetime value.
  • Cost Efficiency & Customer Retention:
    Retaining a customer is more cost-effective than acquiring a new one, especially as digital ad costs continue to rise. Brands should invest in increasing customer lifetime value as a strategic priority.
  • Customer Expectations Today:
    Modern customers expect seamless and branded post-purchase experiences — from order confirmations to delivery tracking — not just handoffs to third-party couriers who treat them as mere consignees.
  • Insights from Amazon & E-commerce:
    Rebecca shares how Amazon’s customer-centric approach influenced her vision to help other retailers close the post-purchase experience gap by integrating branded, informative communications that reduce customer queries and increase engagement.
  • Impact on Customer Service & Business KPIs:
    Implementing enhanced post-purchase communication can reduce customer service calls by up to 50%, improving bottom line and increasing Net Promoter Scores.
  • Storytelling & Aspirational Content:
    Embedding relevant, aspirational content in post-purchase emails or tracking pages encourages re-engagement and upselling, making the customer journey continuous.
  • Challenges with Delivery Partners:
    Choosing a cheaper courier often results in increased customer complaints and lower customer lifetime value. Investing in premium delivery experiences aligns with customer expectations and brand reputation.
  • The Luxury Brand Paradox:
    Luxury brands offer white-glove offline experiences but often fail to match this service online, leading to customer frustration during the delivery phase.
  • Technical Implementation:
    Premise.cx offers easy integration with popular e-commerce platforms such as Shopify, Magento, and Salesforce. The solution provides branded tracking emails and pages that engage customers post-purchase with minimal development effort.
