Intuitive thinking—also known as System […].

Anyone who knows me will tell you that I love a good story. Storytelling is such a powerful way of bringing theories and concepts to life – if you are good at it, the use of stories as a way of inspiring others is second to none. Over the years, I have told a fair number of horror stories to help others learn about the importance of Customer Experience – to the customer, the employee and the shareholder.

Moving forward many years I sat down today to write a new article on what makes great customer service.

Writing in Automotive News , Vince Bond Jr asks a question that is mission critical for many businesses today, “How do you quickly turn an Internet search into a conversation and turn that conversation into a sale?”. In general, I believe all marketing involves disruptively creating interest. Once a prospect demonstrates that interest (for example in the form of an online search), the sales process relies on a conversation to assess needs, qualify the prospect, define product benefits/attributes

It would be natural to assume that companies which invest in customer experience measurement (CEM) would put customer preferences at the top of the list, but this is not always the case. Companies do not consciously ignore customers in the survey process. Rather it’s more often a matter of doing what has come to be. View Article.

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.

By this point in business (almost 2017!), I think most companies understand the value of their customer culture. In short? You want to make sure that customers are being heard and representing a revenue stream. There are, unfortunately, companies that still have no clue how to value customers.

As a manager, your constructive feedback can lift your team’s morale and performance. This can be letting someone know they’re doing a good job in a way that sounds genuine. Or, it may be providing practical and actionable feedback without offending someone who needs to improve their work.
