CRM Strategy Overview

Listen to the customers

Dominos is committed to doing better after listening to customer complaints about the taste of their
pizza.

Their legendary ad showed actual emails and negative tweets about Dominos. Its HQ employees also
read the scathing criticism aloud. With comments such as a crust like cardboard, and totally void of
flavor printed on sheets of paper, the wounded pride of company chefs and other workers was evident.

The campaign invited customers to follow Dominos pizza turnaround. With customer comments
taped to kitchen walls, workers experimented on a new recipe.

By facing consumer criticism head-on and using it to better understand the needs of its customers, the
results a new pizza recipe and revamped menu, for starters helped change attitudes toward their
brand.

Maintain Transparency

Dominos Pizza didnt hide from dissatisfied customers, but brought them and their people into the
process at numerous stages.

Here are some examples:

4
The Pizza Turnaround ad campaign - Dominos put the spotlight on negative
customer comments. No secrets, no spin. It radically embraced the truth.
The Pizza Tracker App Kind of like Uber for pizza, a live tracker app lets
customers follow each stage of their order. From placement to cooking to leaving
the store, the pizza making process is documented in real time. And there a GPS
feature to track the drivers location.
CX, customer and other key metrics - Dominos stores feature a monitor that
details key stats such as weekly customer counts, amount spent per order, and
how each franchise ranks compared to other stores. Employees see these stats to
learn how well theyre doing in real time.

Embrace power of social influence

As it encouraged consumers to try the new recipe and leave feedback on social media,
the company showcased the comments with a live Twitter feed on its Pizza Turnaround
microsite. The company also displayed comments on related blog posts. Harnessing the
power of Social Influence, Dominos even reached out publicly to food bloggers who had
previously criticized their pizzas taste, asking them to give the new recipe a try.

Improve, innovate and evolve based on customer needs

In its early years, Dominos built its reputation with a timely delivery service. But they needed
something more to align with the new Dominos.

One way they got there was by embracing design thinking a mindset oriented toward
solutions, actions, and the creation of a preferred future by putting your customers and their
needs at the center of the experience (and product and service) design process. For Dominos,
this meant disrupting the pizza delivery business with a complete overhaul of the way its
product arrives at customers doors. The Pizza Tracker App is part of this.

The company remains the leader in pizza delivery today, and is poised to be the pizza delivery
leader of the future. A partnership with Ford Motors lets customers order pizza from the
control panel of a car. And theyre experimenting with other hi-tech platforms such as robot
and drone delivery.

Customer Segmentation
Dominos target audience is very broad due to Dominos diverse consumer base.
However, they do focus on consumers between the age group of 15 - 35. In addition,
they focus on targeting couples where both the husband and wife are working because
Dominos provides a quick and easy meal for working individuals.
Dominos has been targeting consumers who are looking for inexpensive pizza quickly
because customer are very price sensitive; increase in prices will lead to decrease of
sales. Dominos is more focused into delivery and carryout customer compared to dine-
in stores. Demographically, Dominos seems not to have any specific target and just
setting up stores targeting greatest number of people (expecting higher footfall). They
strive to be the leader in online pizza ordering.
Dominos especially target people belonging to the socio-economic set of ABC + C1 + C2
+ D1 + E. The target audience or segment base includes the following.
Wealthy achievers
Wealthy executives
Prosperous professionals
Educated urbanites
Aspiring singles
Starting out
Secure families
Settled suburbia
Asian communities
Blue collar roots
Dominos Pizza India takes into consideration some parameters like the Customer
Lifetime Value (CLV), Share of wallet, customers/ consumers propensity to engage,
his/her propensity to unsubscribe from consuming Dominos pizza, propensity to
convert/ buy (,i.e., pull in new customers) and propensity to churn to segment Dominos
customer base. Dominos also uses collaborative filtering tool of RFM (Recency,
Frequency, Marketing engagement) to generate more sales and thereby profits. It
periodically sends out offers and promotion messages to attract new and existing
customers based on their RFM scores and likeability of their profiles to consume pizza.
The segmentation mechanism is depicted below.

Domino's has constantly strived to develop products that suit the tastes of our consumers and
hence delighting them. Domino's believes strongly in the strategy of 'Think global and act
local'. Thus, they have been innovating with delicious new products such as crusts, toppings
and flavors suitable to the taste buds of Indian Consumers. Further providing value for money
and affordable products to the consumers have been an important part in their efforts. The
initiatives such as Fun Meal and Pizza Mania have been extremely popular with consumers
looking for an affordable and value for money meal option. They have been trying to develop
various other methods such as Dominos Heat Wave Bag. It was developed in 1998 to keep the
pizza hot while transporting it to the consumers. Keeping in Mind the Health & Hygiene. A
number of steps have been taken to ensure standardization of quality throughout the different
outlets in the country by laying special emphasis on health & hygiene. Since the outlets here are
catering majorly to local people, they focus majorly on the local preferences. They try to
incorporate their philosophy of 'Think global and act local in their services. Also they keep a
customer review booklet where the customers can fill their expectations and their views on the
service quality which has been provided. The employees in the Service chain who are their
touch points to the customers play a pivotal role in bringing in key customer insights and
requirements for improving the services of the outlets.

They try to gain good customer insights and new opportunities of expanding their Business.
They also carry out experimental study by involving participants to their outlet and carrying out
a survey with these participants. First these participants provide general perceptions about
their past quick service restaurant dining experiences and general perceptions about the
industry. Specifically, they provide general information about themselves i.e. (gender, age, class
status, etc.), restaurant selection criteria (quantity of food, cleanliness, location, price, etc.),
frequency of food preferences (deep-fried, salads, pizza, carbohydrates, breads, etc.),
satisfaction of restaurant selection criteria, satisfaction of the food purchased, satisfaction of
the restaurant environment, satisfaction with the business (employees, etc.) and overall
satisfaction with the transaction (correct change, correct order received, etc.).
Then the participants were asked to engage in a quick service restaurant dining experience at
the restaurant. The only restriction was that the meal must include at least one main entry, one
side item, and one beverage of their choosing. After their dining experience, participants
answered varying questions about their dining experience. Specifically, subjects were asked to
rank various restaurant attributes according to their relative importance. From subjects'
responses we calculated an attribute importance index score (AlS). This weighted score takes
into account the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth most important restaurant attributes as
perceived by subjects. ln addition, subjects were also asked to provide their perceptions about
their dining.
Basically they follow some steps to create excellent customer service at the contact center: -

Make sure that everything is right from the start.


Keep the Waiting time as Less as possible.
Solve the Problems Immediately.
Always gather Feedbacks from the customers.
Incorporate Technology
