Could your loyalty, satisfaction and engagement surveys also behave as sort of “leading indicators” that affect performance in other areas of your company? If customers are more engaged, will they buy more product? Will they recommend you? Will this have any bearing on inventory, staffing or R&D? Think about designing your VOC program with the intent that the data can trickle down to show relevance in your day-to-day operations and business outcomes.

'Online customer service The development of online customer service delivery has made it more difficult to establish warm relationships with customers. A new challenge facing customer service training is to ensure that despite the lack of direct human contact, customer service representatives are able to engage with customers, develop a personal contact and above all that the relationships do not become frosty , especially on social media channels where it is witnessed by millions.

'If you’ve ever had to dial 9-1-1 you know how long those seconds, minutes feel while you’re waiting for help to arrive. The feeling is indescribable. Time stops. And the only lifeline you have is the voice on the other end of the phone. Still, for the importance of what they do, those who make 9-1-1 possible are seldom recognized. That’s why NICE introduced the PSAPs’ Finest awards in 2006.

But in many organizations, there is no central authority governing how, when and why customers are surveyed. When your customers are surveyed in a disjointed, illogical and inconsistent manner, both your VOC initiative and your customer relationships suffer.

Through design, an organization presents their brand. Through tag-lines, the identity of a company’s brand is described and thus promoted. Marketing campaigns then proceed to develop brand recognition, but if that were all that any organization had to do to promote their particular company, many of us in customer service would be out of a job.

At one time only large organizations could afford the expense of customer surveys. Third party companies would construct and conduct the questionnaire, send them out to customers and clients, and tally up the results. Unfortunately, by the time the results came back, the product or the service was outdated. Surveys need to provide immediate actionable information that can boost performance and build trust and confidence.

Culture is how an organization operates whether you chalk it up to customs, attitudes, or etiquette.

The check sheet collects data for the number of times an event occurs.
