Customer experience plays an important, if not the most important role in the success of any business. Nearly all companies (89%) believe that customer experience will be their primary basis for competition. How do you stand in that competition? Customer experience management brings discipline to this somewhat vague and soft area: by establishing a systematic process for collecting, analyzing, and acting on customer feedback, you’ll be able to improve customer experience altogether.

As marketers, we tend to focus most of our efforts on acquiring new customers. Although customer acquisition is certainly vital to future growth, retention also plays an essential role in a successful marketing strategy. After you’ve worked so hard to earn those customers, it’s vital to keep them happy by building customer loyalty and fostering long-term relationships.

What is a Seamless Customer Experience A seamless customer experience is one where the customer interacts with a company in a smooth, effortless manner. The customer feels that their needs are understood, meaning the company is able to anticipate the customer's needs and proactively offer solutions. For example, a company that offers personalized product recommendations based on the customer's purchase history is demonstrating an understanding of the customer's needs.

Before the digital age, customer experience in retail was a completely different world. Success depended on creating an excellent physical environment for shoppers. Businesses focused on product arrangement, purchasing/return processes, and employee helpfulness. These elements, and others, are still significant today, of course. Where and how they take place has changed, of course.

Why do customers choose one brand over the other when both offer similar products in quality and price? Why do customers cling to expensive brands when they can get one with the same functionality for cheaper? Loyalty and brand image may seem the obvious answers, but did you know that these eventually tie to customer emotions? Emotions create preferences in customers’ minds, which in turn drive them to take action.

Although larger models tend to be more powerful, training such models requires significant computational resources. Even with the use of advanced distributed training libraries like FSDP and DeepSpeed, it’s common for training jobs to require hundreds of accelerator devices for several weeks or months at a time.

I was on the phone with an agent on a support line the other day and I told her that I was sorry. No, I didn’t apologize… I’d done nothing wrong… Yes, I was upset, I was disappointed, I was frustrated. But I’d treated the agent with the utmost respect and courtesy and didn’t take it out on her. Such is the subtle difference between saying ‘Sorry,’ and apologizing.

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.

A few weeks ago, we compared manual agent evaluation vs. software-supported agent scoring vs. automated call scoring for quality assurance. The conclusion was that while manual scoring usually leads to more accurate results than auto scoring, it is very labor- and time-intensive, resulting in only 1-3% of the calls being manually evaluated. Therefore, scoring 100% of the calls using automatic call scoring — in addition to manually scoring calls — is required to get a complete picture.
