As the chief customer officer (CCO) of the organization, you may at times feel like you’re begging for people to listen to you, to understand your goals, and to implement your suggestions. This is an important role for the growth of your organization, and you will need the help of your C-Suite team, especially the CEO, in order to gain real traction in your work.

A recent post on LinkedIn by business mentor Miriam Simon got me thinking about the relationship between store layout and customer experience. Miriam’s post was short and to the point.

Think about the last time you lead brainstorming to improve your customer experience (CX). Did you give people Post-It Notes and have them shout out ideas while they put them on the wall? Doing that is a ton of fun. But it’s also a terrible way to develop ideas. So, stop doing it. You reply, “But […].

It wasn’t that long ago that you would go to a store, dine at a restaurant, do business with a vendor or call a customer support center and notice how good the customer service was. A great service experience stood out. It was noticed. It was a differentiator. I started my speaking business in the 1980s. I know, I look much younger than I actually am, but it really was that long ago.

Your eyes were bugged-eyed open, and they darted back and forth hoping to see everything (but they never did). Sweat started, a little at first, then it seemed to flow from every pore and made your clothes stick to places you didn’t even know you had. Your hands tightly gripped the steering wheel while you prayed no one crossed your path and if they did, heaven help them.

Customer Experience Leaders Have a Global Customer Focus. Even after over a decade of helping small and large businesses alike, I still meet leaders who believe that Customer Experience is just about so much call-center scripts or proper protocol around customer complaints. As you and I both know, dear reader, it’s so much more than that. The best companies, the ones we know as customer experience leaders, adopt a customer focused view to everything.

The 7 Telltale Signs of a Company NOT Committed to Customers. I discovered many years ago that I could determine whether a company was committed to customers pretty quickly. When I thought about how I recognized it, I found that organizations that did not commit to customers had some shared company culture cues that indicated where their focus was. The ideas behind this discovery later became my second book, Revolutionize Your Customer Experience.

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.

As a customer experience leader, you need to have a good understanding of your organization’s culture. The culture is defined by actions, not words. It is consistent behaviors that give people direction on what to “model.” It’s decisions made and actions taken that prove that the customer commitment is real and not lip service.

Smart Home technology is expected to become a $151.4 billion market by 2024. However, it still has a long way to go before it reaches its full potential. Many consumers face significant technical challenges as they set about smartening up their homes. While in theory, smart devices should be easy to set up – most are wireless and can be remotely connected – in reality, non-technical customers are often insufficiently skilled to set up these products on their own.

In a recent Shepard Letter, I wrote about the concept of giving recognition to the people who deserve it. Someone being recognized for what they bring to the organization is often overlooked. That’s a shame. People need to be recognized for their contribution to the team’s success.

It’s been stated that customer experience is the new brand, but what about the visual customer experience? Constant online interaction and social media engagement has piqued our need for visual stimulation and trained us to assimilate more imagery than ever before. And we’ve extended these expectations to eCommerce. We call this new reality “ the visual economy ,” and in it, product imagery and interaction along the purchase journey is as important to consumers as the product itself.
