AskNicely, a leader in customer experience software for service businesses, announced that Lendmark Financial Services, a leading provider of household credit and consumer loan solutions serving more than 400,000 customers a year, has selected the AskNicely Frontline Success Platform to empower its workers to deliver exceptional customer experience. By choosing this platform’s clear, consistent, real-time insights and scalable tools to track trends, spark coaching conversations and recognize employees for a job well done, Lendmark demonstrates its commitment to customer experience (CX) excellence and continued leadership as an innovator in the consumer finance space.

Lendmark Financial, with more than 460 branches across 21 states, is renowned for its personalized approach to individual loans, automobile loans and retail merchant sales finance services, as well as its competitive fixed rates, quick approval and instant funding—all of which set it apart from other lending services. Focused on investing in the most advanced technology to raise the bar higher in CX and employee success, Lendmark chose AskNicely after trying several leading applications on the market. After a successful pilot, Lendmark implemented the AskNicely Frontline Success Platform to give its teams instant access to customer feedback and provide managers with valuable insights across regional locations and branches and down to the individual loan consultants to enable highly effective coaching and employee recognition.

“Implementing a new program or technology into a large business with hundreds of branches can often be met with resistance, yet the opposite has been true with the AskNicely implementation,” said Lendmark Financial Chief Marketing Officer Ethan Andelman. “We tried other CX solutions, but our employees embraced AskNicely for its ability to provide customer feedback. As a community-focused, relationship-based business, Lendmark values our customers’ recommendations, and we will use their feedback to spur further company growth and even better customer relations.”
