Aroma Passion — Customer Service Excellence

Executive overview

Aroma Passion has operated customer-facing fragrance retail and subscription services since 2015, serving a customer base of approximately 120,000 active accounts as of 2024. Our customer service mission is to convert every interaction into a brand-strengthening experience: fast resolution, empathetic communication, and measurable follow-through. Across e-commerce, brick-and-mortar, and B2B wholesale lines, the CS function supports annual revenues of roughly $8.4 million (2023) and manages peak volumes up to 6,000 contacts per week during holiday launches.

To remain practical and measurable, Aroma Passion organizes CS around four pillars: accessibility (omnichannel presence), reliability (clear SLAs and policies), capability (training and knowledge management), and improvement (data-driven metrics and escalation paths). The approach described below reflects operational benchmarks collected internally between 2021–2024 and industry-standard best practices; sample contact information and metrics are provided for operational clarity and planning.

Service channels, hours and contact

Aroma Passion operates five primary customer channels to ensure coverage and convenience: telephone support, dedicated email, web chat, social DM response, and in-store assistance. Standard ingestion split in 2024 was ≈38% email, 28% chat, 18% phone, 12% social, 4% in-store follow-ups. Peak-hour staffing is scheduled between 10:00–20:00 local time to match order and inquiry spikes; weekends are staffed with reduced but full-featured coverage.

Sample operational contact points (illustrative):

  • Corporate HQ (sample): 123 Aroma Lane, Suite 400, New York, NY 10001
  • Customer Care Phone: +1 (212) 555-0147 — Mon–Fri 09:00–20:00 ET, Sat 10:00–16:00 ET
  • Email: [email protected] — SLA: first response within 24 hours
  • Website & Orders: https://www.aromapassion.com — live chat available 09:00–18:00 ET
  • Wholesale & Returns: [email protected] — include invoice number and SKU

Response standards, SLAs and customer policies

A strict SLA framework reduces customer friction and sets clear expectations. Current internal targets: phone answer time ≤30 seconds, live chat initial reply ≤60 seconds, email first response ≤24 hours, and on-platform social replies ≤4 hours during business hours. First Contact Resolution (FCR) target is 78% for consumer queries; issues outside that scope follow documented escalation steps. Written confirmations (order changes, cancellations, refunds) are issued within 24–48 hours and tracked through the CRM ticket ID.

Refund, return and price policies are explicit and public: 30-day return window for unopened items (return shipping reimbursed for orders >$50), 14-day price-match window on identical SKUs, and a standard $5.00 restocking fee only for international returns under special channels. Standard domestic shipping is $4.95; free shipping applies to orders ≥$50. These numbers are reviewed quarterly to balance conversion and margin—recent margin analysis (Q4 2023) showed free-ship threshold optimized to increase average order value from $43 to $61.

Pricing, shipping and returns specifics

For transparency, the returns address and processing timeline are documented on the website and in order confirmations: Returns Dept., Aroma Passion, 78 Commerce Drive, Hoboken, NJ 07030. Typical returns processing time is 3–7 business days after the warehouse receives the package; refunds post-processing appear on customer statements within 5–10 business days. Expedited exchanges are available for $12.95 and processed within 48 hours of warehouse confirmation.

International customers should expect duties and taxes billed on delivery unless a DDP option is selected at checkout. International flat-rate shipping starts at $18.50 for parcels under 2 kg; replacement part orders (sample vials, atomizers) are invoiced at $6.95 flat to avoid SKU fragmentation. Clear, pre-authorized return labels reduce disputes—our returns portal auto-generates barcoded RMA labels to speed warehouse reconciliation by 22% on average.

Training, quality assurance and technology

Aroma Passion’s CS team is trained on product fragrance families, allergen disclosures, and fitting guidelines as well as soft skills: de-escalation, upsell with empathy, and warranty law. New hires complete a 40-hour onboarding curriculum (20 hours product, 10 hours system training, 10 hours soft-skill roleplay) and pass a 90% competency threshold on product quizzes and mock interactions. Quarterly refreshers cover new launches—typical launch training is a mandatory 2-hour module per rep for each new collection.

Quality assurance captures 5% of phone calls and all chat transcripts for evaluation; QA scoring uses a 10-point rubric focusing on accuracy, timeliness, empathy and compliance, with a minimum acceptable score of 85%. The tech stack integrates an industry-standard CRM (Zendesk/Freshdesk-style workflow), order management, and a knowledge base that averages 420 articles and is updated weekly. Automation handles order status, tracking emails, and replacement authorizations to reduce manual touches by ~34% year-over-year.

Metrics, reporting and continuous improvement

Key performance indicators are measured daily, reported weekly to team leads, and summarized monthly to executive leadership. Core targets include Average Handle Time (AHT) 240 seconds for phone, FCR 78%, CSAT ≥4.6/5, NPS target ≥50, and annual churn ≤6%. In 2023, Aroma Passion achieved a CSAT of 4.58 and NPS of 48; continuous improvement efforts in early 2024 focused on boosting FCR and reducing AHT through expanded knowledge-base search heuristics.

Reporting cadence is disciplined: daily dashboards for queue health and agent availability, weekly deep dives into escalations and returns, monthly trend analysis by SKU and channel, and quarterly strategy reviews tying customer feedback to product development. A closed-loop feedback system routes product complaints and feature requests to R&D with SLA: product-impacting issues reviewed within 10 business days and prioritized according to revenue and safety impact.

  • Operational KPI targets (typical): AHT 240s, FCR 78%, CSAT 4.6+, NPS 50+, Refund turnaround 5–10 business days
  • Sampling & QA: 5% calls recorded, 100% chat transcripts, QA min score 85%
  • Service hours: Mon–Fri 09:00–20:00 ET, Sat 10:00–16:00 ET; emergency escalation 24/7 for safety/recall

Complaint resolution flow and escalation matrix

The complaint handling flow is standardized: (1) Tier 1 intake captures customer details and issues, issues a ticket ID and attempts resolution; (2) Tier 2 technical/product experts review within 24–72 hours for nonstandard claims; (3) Tier 3 senior management or legal for warranty, safety or high-value disputes (orders >$500) with a target resolution window of 3–10 business days. At every handoff the customer receives an update timestamped in the ticket; escalation triggers are automated when SLAs are breached.

For accountability, each escalated case logs outcome, root cause, and corrective actions in the monthly quality report. Remedies range from full refund, exchange, expedited replacement, or targeted goodwill credits (typical value $10–$50 depending on order size). In 2023, formal escalations comprised 1.8% of total contacts and net root-cause corrections reduced repeat escalations by 31% in 12 months—evidence that data-led remediation meaningfully improves customer retention.
