I talk often about customer experience , but recently I’ve heard from some followers that they’d like a bit more on customer retention. The first thing to understand about customer retention is that obviously it comes straight from customer experience. In short, if the customer experience is good, the customer retention is there. Also there: referral.

I have written many times in the past about the importance of effective communication if an organisation has an intention to deliver consistently better Customer Experiences. Whilst much of my writing has been focused on the importance of the communication relationship between a company and the customer, I have not been as vocal about the almost equal criticality of the communication between a company and it’s employees.

This original article was written by Steve DiGioia. Complaint after complaint is heard about today’s workforce; they are lazy, spend too much time on social media while on-the-job and they have no work ethic. Employee morale is at an all-time low. True or not, it is a fact of business. Today’s employees; regardless of their social status, geographic makeup or millennial segmentation, face a vastly different work environment that those of 30-40 years ago.

I was visiting a client last week and we started talking about the recent trend in customer experience which suggests that customers should come first over everything else. Over profits and stakeholders, over processes and policies and over employees. Although this sort of thinking has the right intentions, I think it’s a little misguided and could do more harm than good in the long run.

For me… Invention is the creation of something new. and. Innovation is creating a new solution that addresses a human need. If I were so inclined, I could go into my garage cobble together some random materials and produce a “one of a kind” object. I could call it Joseph’s garage invention. While I might amuse myself in the process, the invention would be nothing more than an expression of my creative process.

Episode Overview. In this, the 10th episode of the Human Duct Tape Show podcast (we made double digits!), I talk with Nick Frunzi. Nick is the CCO of Esri, which is the world’s second-largest privately-held technology company. This creates a new set of challenges for the CCO role — in publicly-held and traded companies, many executive decision-making concepts are beholden to share price and investor relationships.

Customer experience is a huge factor in bringing consumers back into the fold as repeat customers. A major facet of a customer’s experience is the customer service exchanges they have with your company’s representatives. Any employee that a customer talks to is the face of your business during that interaction. If your employees are interacting with a high volume of customers on the phone, it’s important to make sure those contacts are both positive for the customer and aligned with your busines
