    THE IMPACT OF THE BRAND AMBASSADORPROGRAMME ON AVIS EMPLOYEE MEASUREMENT

    Markinor has conducted research measuring employee loyalty for Avis at two-yearly intervals since 2000. The

    2000 and 2002 studies did not include the entire Avis staff, with 527 and 411 completed questionnaires being

    analysed respectively. In 2004, the survey included all staff members and 773 questionnaires were analysed.

    This means that we have to interpret the trends with caution. However, the shifts are so significant and the

    trends are so consistent that they tell a story.

    Towards the end of 2001, the Avis Brand Ambassador Programme was launched. There was not enough time

    between the launch and the 2002 measure to pick up on the impact of the programme. In fact most of the

    measures were similar to the 2000 figures. This, despite a strong focus on communicating and getting the buy-in

    regarding vision, promise, value and culture in the preceding two years.

    In our analysis of the trends between 2000, 2002 and 2004, the first indication that there has been a positive shift

    in the way in which Avis conduct themselves in the workplace since the Brand Ambassador programme is on

    three measures of behaviour: When asked how likely they were to be working at Avis two years from now, the

    positive response (very/extremely likely) moved from 58% in 2000 to 60% in 2002 and 66% in 2004. When

    asked whether they would recommend Avis as a good place to work, positive responses have remained relatively

    stable at 69%, 69% and 72% respectively. Then, an anomaly: when asked how likely they are to do things at

    work that are above and beyond the call of duty employees positive responses show a downward shift from

    91% in 2000 and 87% in 2002 to 81% in 2004. Although all of these scores are very high, the downward shift is

    interesting and in the light of all the other findings leads us to interpret this in a positive rather than a negative

    way. The shift means that employees have so internalized the people-focus of the Brand Ambassador

    Programme that they have raised the bar for what they perceive to be behaving in a way that is above and

    beyond the call of duty. In other words, the people at Avis have taken responsibility for their own behaviour.

    The percentage of Avis employees that are truly loyal has grown significantly since the 2000 measure of 36%

    and the 2002 measure of 35%. In 2004, the measure moved up significantly to 54%. Truly loyal employees are

    those that want to stay (positive attitude) and will stay (positive behaviour). Conversely the percentage of

    employees that feel trapped (will stay but dont want to) has dropped significantly from 22% in 2000 and 25%

    in 2002 to 13% in 2004. Further, the percentage of employees that are at high risk of leaving (dont want to stay

    and probably wont) has also dropped: from 31% in 2000 and 33% in 2002 to 20% in 2004. This represents a

  • 7/28/2019 Cs Brand Ambassador Case Study

    4/22

    AVIS CSI: May 2004 customers 2

    significant impact on the bottom line, with retention of staff being less expensive than recruiting and training

    new staff.

    The positive shift in measures of behaviour and attitude is reflected in a number of measures of employees

    perceptions of interactions between themselves and Avis. Although there may be other factors impacting on the

    positive shift in these measures, the Brand Ambassador programme has been the major focus for Avis over the

    past two years and in the light of the stability of these measures between 2000 and 2002 must take most of the

    credit for the increase in positive perception of a number of areas that affect employees experience at and

    attitude towards Avis. These areas include:

    - Personal loyalty to Avis

    - Perception of corporate reputation

    - Personal relationship with manager

    - Day-to-day experience at work

    - Perception of a culture that embraces diversity

    - Communication

    - Perception of customer service

    The positive shifts on specific measures for these areas can be seen in the following table:

    One area in particular needs further comment: Communication. The measures for communication have

    improved to the extent that in the 2004 survey, communication does not impact on loyalty, i.e. Avis is

    communicating with its employees in such a way that they no longer perceive it as an area needing attention

    the need is being met. This is an extremely unusual finding for most companies, communication scores are

    low and have a significant impact on loyalty. It appears that the Brand Ambassador programme has had an

    impact in an area that most companies struggle with and in which few companies succeed.

    One of the strong messages in the Brand Ambassador programme was Avis are choose to people, and in

    2004 a measure was included to test the buy-in regarding this message. In 2000 and 2002, the statement was

    worded, My job is challenging in a good way and scores were 60% and 65% respectively. In 2004, buy-in

    was confirmed with 91% of employees responded positively to the statement, I choose to rise to the challenge

    of my job.

    CUSTOMER SATISFACTION INDEX

    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

    The overall CSI score has declined steadily since September 2002, but lifted again since May 2003, above

    historic figures. The year-on-year figures since December 2003 have been significantly above the same months

    in the previous year.

    A summary of notable aspects in this report include:

    After the decline in November 2003, the scores have increased in January 2004, February 2004 but declined

    again in March and April 2004. This month the CSI has reached its highest scores ever with the overall

    CSI at 88.7%. There are no scores below 80% with increases in every category;

    The softer human interaction items are historically consistently below the overall CSI, although it was

    above the overall in February;

    The highest items for May customers are:

    Cleanliness (94.1%)

    Courtesy collect (92.4%)

    The lowest scores for May relate to:

    Value for money (80.0%)

    Final charges (82.1%)

    Scores were calculated by REGION for the report. Region 120 has been divided into Cape Town area and

    the Eastern Cape; Region 140 has been divided into the Gauteng area and the Free State / Northern Cape

    areas.

    The complaints that were raised in the verbatim comments for May 2004, relate to the following:

    The process at the counter takes very long.

    Parking is difficult to locate. This still seems to be a consistent problem.

    Vehicles with mechanical problems are given to customers.

    Small things seem to make a big difference. Competitors give extras like coffee, newspapers, free

    upgrades and sweets, and this is an issue with certain customers.

    Availability of specific vehicles one customer couldnt obtain any of 3 requested vehicles.

    Vehicles which smell of cigarette smoke.

    Prices are too high if compared with other car rental companies often Budget is mentioned.

    One concern that also comes up regularly in the verbatim comments is that Avis consultants arent

    always easy to identify. Especially when returning vehicles.

    It is recommended that:

  • 7/28/2019 Cs Brand Ambassador Case Study

    8/22

    AVIS CSI: May 2004 customers 6

    A qualitative study be undertaken to investigate the issue of charges and value for money and

    satisfaction with charges, which is consistently showing negative perceptions with national clients over

    time.

    A few clients suggested that Avis provides maps in their cars. It is especially helpful to foreign clients.

    It is suggested by customers that more staffshould be available at busy stations on certain times.

    PROJECT BACKGROUND

    AVIS launched a monthly Customer Satisfaction Index research program in June 2002 (May 2002 customers).

    The sample was smaller for May and June 2002 customers and the questionnaire was adapted after completing

    July 2002 customer fieldwork. This report contains the combined data from August 2002 to May 2004

    customers.

    PROJECT SCOPE

    The May 2004 sample is 501 interviews for the AVIS CSI from the national rental client database. The

    cumulative sample for this report is respondents. The report contains feedbackper month as well as

    cumulative figures.

    The samples were drawn on a random basis from the list provided by AVIS. Due to random sampling, the

    proportional sizes of subgroups correspond to the list.

    The current and historic figures are shown nationally,by major station (JHB, CT, DBN International Airports

    & all Other stations) and by region. The overall margins of error are as follows:

    National combined sample: AVIS sample: 10 954 Margin of error: 0.6 to 1.0

    Monthly national sample: sample: 500 Margin of error: 2.6 to 4.4

    D IRECT FEEDBACK

    All respondents who provided a very low score for any question were asked to explain their dissatisfaction.

    These responses, as well as ad-hoc queries and problems were recorded to form part of this report.

    In this way AVIS can follow-up on any problems and/or queries which can be addressed and solved, e.g.

    incorrect accounts by forwarding the information to the correct person or department within AVIS. Separate

    regional reports have been generated, so that each regional manager can implement follow-up action and react

    appropriately to verbatim comments within his/her region.
