A Service Management Group (SMG) Case Study
la Madeleine, known for its French countryside ambiance and recipes passed down through generations, needed to keep its guest experience authentic across channels. Leadership discovered third-party contact center agents were going off-script and failing to greet and thank callers in French, and the lack of robust reporting hindered delivery on its 24-hour “Get the Guest Back” policy; la Madeleine was already measuring guest experience with Service Management Group (SMG) via post-transaction surveys.
la Madeleine terminated the contact center relationship and launched SMG InForm, a custom-branded digital comment card on their Contact Us page that feeds into SMG’s smg360 reporting platform. Service Management Group (SMG) enabled real-time alerts, text analytics, and restaurant-level reporting, producing a scalable, automated guest-response process with zero complaints about the switch and roughly 15% annual savings in the guest relations budget while restoring consistent, authentic experiences.
