September 10, 2008 – Vancouver, BC – AAA of Northern California, Nevada and Utah, the second-largest regional AAA club in the United States, has selected ResponseTek to provide its ‘voice of the customer’ solution, as part of an ongoing strategy to deliver superior customer experiences to all its members.
ResponseTek customer experience management (CEM) software will allow all members of AAA of Northern California, Nevada and Utah to provide feedback about their experiences with the club. Actionable customer insight will be delivered in real-time to AAA business units, allowing the organization to incorporate feedback into frontline customer service delivery over the web, at branches, in the contact center, and at the time of bill payment. Information generated by the CEM solution will also be used in corporate planning initiatives and prioritization.
With more than 7,000 employees, AAA Northern of California, Nevada and Utah, provides insurance, travel and roadside assistance services to over 4.5 million members, from 120 offices in California, Nevada and Utah.
“Members drive the priorities of our business, and positive experiences have huge impacts on their decisions to renew with us, and recommend AAA to their friends and family.” said Cyndie Beckwith, vice president of customer experience for AAA of Northern California, Nevada and Utah. “We chose ResponseTek because it allows members to provide feedback at every interaction. That feedback is shared across the organization, and helps us prioritize our time and resources to ensure we are improving our business and providing superior service, benefits and value to our members.”
“Our objective is to be the leading customer-driven, employee-powered membership organization in the western United States, and ResponseTek will be a key component to our success.”

They’re bold enough to walk the talk by making operational changes necessary to drive action on the front lines, and embed the customer voice in the management planning process. We’re thrilled to be working with them on this initiative”
