20 Reasons Why Customers Return Products, Learn Practical Tips and Strategies You Can Apply Today.
What is the return policy on your products? This is a delicate question that all merchants must address: how do you balance customer service with the huge impact this causes to your bottom line? Businesses do not like to admit how big this problem is, but according to some industry statistics, a staggering $458 billion worth of goods were returned to the stores in the year 2020. That’s 10% of the total sales.
If you are an online merchant, the numbers are even more dramatic for you: up to 30% of your products come back to you because someone either changes their mind, or does not like the quality. Or because someone goes through the practice of “bracketing,” where they buy the product in multiple colors and sizes, try them on, keep one and return the rest. And whatever the reasons may be, they expect you to pay for the shipping cost.
There are 20 possible reasons why someone brings the product back, asking for a refund. In this course, we will be taking a detailed look at this phenomenon. We will try to understand what’s actually happening, and will come up with recommendations on what you could do to reduce some of this impact.
