Enhanced bereavement helpline
Nationwide
The client asked us to gradually implement an enhanced bereavement helpline service providing impartial and unlimited guidance to bereaved families. Meanwhile, we needed to build close relationships with funeral arrangers, ensuring they trusted us to look after their grieving clients. The service had to be integrated seamlessly, building confidence and trust across the organisation whilst delivering outstanding customer service levels.
We collaborated closely with our client to slowly and carefully roll out a practical helpline across their 200 branches.
We collaborated closely with our client to slowly and carefully roll out a practical helpline across their 200 branches. Initially, this was an inbound call service only, which later escalated to an outbound call strategy with a detailed roll out plan and gradual implementation across each region. We worked to build trust with Regional Directors and Funeral Arrangers at every step of this process, understanding how crucial that would be to the success of the programme.
Within the first three months of the relationship, the National Bereavement Service (NBS) assisted more than 240 bereaved families with practical help and guidance leading to a national roll out across the UK. We conducted 36 free estate planning reviews, with this added value service now forming part of the client’s proposition as an available service for its customers.
“We have been working with Adroit and NBS for numerous years and have always found their service of the highest quality.”
“We have been exceptionally impressed with the level of client service and have only ever received positive feedback. Both our clients and our branches are extremely positive about the service, which has given us the confidence to move on and start to look at the area in more detail and utilise Adroit and NBS’s skills in other areas.”
“We have found working with Lisa Lund consistently a pleasure. Lisa is always extremely knowledgeable acting as a guide and industry expert, generous with her time and extremely good at supporting business development and ideas, and utilising her skills and knowledge to help move immediately to workable solutions.”
