As a CX practitioner, I continue to see how technology ushers in disruptions across retail and other B2C service industries, but I want you to remember that customer behavior is the actual impetus for these disruptions. I thought this concept would be worth briefly discussing (and revisiting), especially as I came across NJ Goldston’s, 5 Strategies on How to Stay Ahead of Customer-Driven Disruption on Forbes.

Once upon a time, in the vast realm of online commerce, there lived a humble checkout button overlooked by many. Yet, within its humble click lay the power to transform a mere visitor into a loyal customer. 🧐 💡 Getting checkout right can mark the difference between a successful sale and an abandoned cart, yet many businesses fail to make payments a part of their commerce strategy even when it has a direct impact on revenue.

Test marketing is defined as a strategy used by companies to check the viability of their new product or a marketing campaign before it is being launched in the market on a large scale.

never ever say that to a customer I went to my local Petco store last week to buy a few more guppies for my fish tank. I got this tank for my kids a few years ago but they never bothered to look at the tank and I don’t think they’ve ever even fed the poor fish. But that’s another story. Anyway, since there wasn’t anyone in the fish department to help me, I went to the cashier to ask if he could please get someone to help me.

Gen-Z was born between 1996 and 2010, with the oldest workers of the era being 23 years of age, and prime entry-level job candidates in your contact center. While both generations have commonalities, it’s important to recognize the differences and how to cater your performance management strategy to their unique needs and preferences.

It’s universal—I don’t know of anyone that hasn’t been in a taxi. If for some reason they haven’t, I can’t imagine they don’t know what one is. In the story, I talk about the “amenities” the driver offered, which made me want to ride with him the next time I was in his city.

The smaller the company, the smaller the budget and the more pressure managers are under to justify every expense. But there are some things no company should skimp on, and digital customer service is one of them.
