    Broadgate boosts footfall

    React CX informs Visitor Experience Programme

    Broadgate, the 32 acre central London neighbourhood, has increased footfall by 3 per cent to some 64,000 visits per day, with help from data sourced through mystery shopping, to further improve the visitor experience.

    Mystery shopping specialists React CX were appointed in 2015 to measure customer experience throughout the neighbourhood. This included open spaces and in Broadgate’s offices, and food and beverage units.

    Mystery shoppers monitored and reported on the quality of visitor experience delivered by staff – ranging from receptionists and security guards, to office cleaners and waste management teams. They also made phone calls and sent emails to duty staff to assess responses, looking at how fast, friendly and knowledgeable the responses were.

    The Broadgate project team mapped the customer journey from Liverpool Street Station and other key entry points across the public spaces, through to reception areas, into the lifts, and ultimately to the occupiers’ floors.

    The team identified multiple ‘touch points’ where the standard of estate services could potentially affect the quality of the visitor experience. React CX advised on how best to measure each touchpoint through mystery shopping. From the results, Broadgate could then focus on the performance of individual staff members and their contribution to visitors’ experiences.

    Trend analysis of the data captured over time provided quantitative information on performance. It showed an upward trend in the scoring for each of those touchpoints over the last two years ensuring occupiers are now even better served and positive about occupying the managed spaces than before, helping build trust in the Broadgate brand.

    Colin Lee-Davie, Director of Estate Services, said:“There is a clear benefit for our occupiers from increased footfall in the neighbourhood. React worked closely with us to understand our business situation and goals, then created bespoke questionnaires and programmes with experienced mystery shoppers to deliver insights we can trust.”

    Broadgate is further tailoring its programme to support its commercial goals, to include extra touchpoints and analyses. This will help the management team assess how well staff understand and express agreed brand values.”
