Enhancing Customer Experience with Behavioral Science
Objective: Total Energies, a leading global energy retailer, aimed to enhance customer experience and strengthen brand loyalty across its retail network. With a diverse customer base and a dynamic energy market, Total Energies leveraged behavioral science to optimize customer interactions, drive informed decision-making, and elevate customer satisfaction throughout its retail outlets.

Our approach:
Solution: Humanist worked closely with Total Energies to apply behavioral science principles to enhance the customer journey.
Key components of the solution included:

Nudge Theory: Incorporating subtle yet effective nudges into the customer journey to encourage behaviors like signing up for energy-saving programs, upgrading to greener energy plans, and adopting energy-efficient products.
Choice Architecture: Simplifying the decision-making process in retail stores by restructuring product displays and choices to make sustainable options more prominent and more straightforward to select.
