Why Global Companies Engage ACM to Protect Retention, Revenue, and Result$

In today’s global economy, your two most valuable assets — your people and your customers — are also the most vulnerable. Retaining them is no longer a “nice to have.” It’s the business strategy.

At Advanced Client Metrics (ACM), we work with companies around the world who are facing a simple but high-stakes challenge: they’re investing heavily in international assignments, yet too often, those assignments fail. Employees return early. Customers leave quietly. And no one is entirely sure why.

The Strategic Shift: From Admin to Insight

Global businesses are recognizing that international mobility isn’t just operational — it’s strategic. Assignments are meant to bridge skill gaps, build future leadership, and grow markets. But these ambitions get derailed when feedback is ignored or never captured in the first place.

As Ron Williams of ACM explains:

“Mobility programs are often evaluated on cost and compliance, but the real return on investment comes from retention. If the employee leaves or the customer churns, the entire investment disappears. ACM protects that investment by capturing feedback early — and using it to drive action.”

ACM’s human-led approach delivers over 90% participation rates — far higher than any online survey or automated tool. We speak directly with employees, customers, and even family members involved in international relocations. That qualitative insight, delivered in real time, is what helps companies course-correct before things fall apart.

Four Reasons Companies Engage ACM

1. Strategic Value Gets Lost in the Chaos

Mobility teams are expected to execute high-stakes assignments — but they’re buried in transactional tasks. ACM frees them up by streamlining feedback collection and surfacing the real issues that need attention.

2. Families Often Derail Assignments

Even when compensation is generous, international assignments fail if a spouse or child struggles to adapt. ACM uncovers these concerns early — before they lead to early returns or resignations.

3. Costs Keep Rising Without Clear ROI

Global assignments now cost nearly $10,000 per year in admin alone. Yet many companies struggle to measure their return. ACM helps you understand where your programs are thriving — and where you’re losing value.

4. Technology Alone Isn’t Enough

Only a tiny fraction of companies are fully satisfied with their mobility tech. ACM doesn’t replace platforms — we complement them with human insight, transforming raw data into actionable direction.

The Bottom Line: Retention Drives Revenue

Whether it’s a top performer leaving a key market…

Or a corporate client walking away after a mishandled move…

These are avoidable losses — and they hurt. ACM exists to help you retain the people and customers who drive your business forward.

Because the reason we’re all in business isn’t just growth — it’s sustained, profitable growth. And that starts by listening to those who make it possible.

Let’s talk about how ACM can help you close the loop and protect your most important relationships.
