Eroski – Grateful Sale

The challenge

Improve the sales capacity of customer service people. Enhance their commercial skills and attitudes to achieve greater results, while increasing customer satisfaction.

How we did it

We define Grateful Selling as a situation where:

  • Thanks to an employee, the customer buys something he did not plan to buy.
  • The shop sells more and/or sells something at a higher margin.
  • The customer is grateful for having been advised to make the purchase.

It’s not just about selling, it’s about making the customer feel grateful, taking customer satisfaction and customer experience further.

We started with collective intelligence sessions with the participation of 100 of the best salespeople. We designed a sales model based on real practice, not theories. A model that was simple and applicable to everyone. We were ready to scale to the whole company.

We implemented our own sales model using our ‘Positive Deviation’ methodology. Each shop conducted weekly or bi-weekly sales sprints, focused on a specific set of products or categories. Information was shared in real time, creating a gamification dynamic that drove engagement and results.

"As they are decisions that come from us, that come from the team, it is much easier"

"Grateful sales are super important because if there is one thing we have to pursue this challenge, it is to sell more and where the greatest opportunity is. The potential we have with customers who pass through the checkout line is tremendous"

Rosa Carabel
CEO | Eroski

"Understanding that we can move numbers, we can move results, is revolutionary"

"The grateful sale has changed us all. In a sale, we not only talk about euros but we also talk about customer satisfaction"

The impact

A sales culture and attitude was created in all shops.

In the categories that were focused on, sales increased by 15 to 22% compared to shops where this action had not yet been taken.

Customer share also increased.

At the same time, it improved the customer experience by getting them to make a smarter and more appropriate purchase.
