“Wow&# customer service isn’t about what we learn in manuals; it’s about behaviors and the development and encouragement of excellent habits. Every employee can contribute to outstanding customer service, share with others, and together display the professionalism every organization desires.

Success in the use of social media for marketing is not achieved by focusing on how we talk to customers; rather, it is how we listen to the existing conversation taking place online. Active listening is critical to the creation of appropriate social media interaction plans. When we skip listening, our customer interactions via social media begin to sound like traditional, one-way broadcast messages—which will quickly be tuned out in this medium.

When sales and marketing professionals hear the words "customer feedback," most tend to think of colleagues who spend their time in statistical analysis and tracking customer satisfaction scores.

Building lasting customer relationships has always been top-of-mind for businesses. However, in the last decade, organizations have recognized that the customer journey beyond the initial sale is as critical as the sale itself.

The first step in a successful Customer Experience endeavor (or for that matter, any business proposition) is to find out what’s wrong. If you can’t identify it, you can’t fix it! 💡 That’s where the Voice of the Customer (VoC) comes in. Today, far too many brands do VoC simply because that’s what they think they’re supposed to do; that’s what all their competitors do.
