When your business starts growing, you are likely to feel pride, motivation and inspiration \u2013 and, at the same time, a lot of frustration. Having to keep track of the customer data \u2013 each client\u2019s details, preferences and points in their customer journey \u2013 is overwhelming. On top of that, you also have to ensure a personalized approach to each and every client. As Forbes states<\/u><\/a>, using the research by Epsilon<\/u><\/a>, 80% of customers indicate that they are more likely to do business with a company that offers personalized experiences and 90% of them state that they find personalization appealing. So how do you, as a business, meet this challenge and satisfy clients while maintaining your sanity?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are many software that help businesses meet this need. For example, there are Customer Relationship Management, or CRM, tools that can organize all customer data. They offer secure and easy-to-use tools for data storage, reporting, automation and better team collaboration. They facilitate business on your side \u2013 but do little for your client.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the client\u2019s side, you may have a knowledge base \u2013 a self-service tool where your customers can find how-to articles, manuals, troubleshooting guides, and FAQs without needing to contact your support desk. Being accessible without any logins, a knowledge base is a great source of information about your product or service but it does not solve any personalization issues or store a particular client\u2019s search history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, there is a tool that provides the benefits of both: endless capacity for storing personal details, like a CRM, and resources for finding answers to most questions, like a knowledge base. But most importantly, this tool enables communication between you and your clients, offering each of them a personalized space for one-on-one interaction. This tool is a client portal.<\/p>\n\n\n
