Customers expect better and faster pre and post purchase services. Whether they need help setting up a new device or to repair a damaged product, the way in which these interactions are handled are at the heart of customer satisfaction. As companies embrace the digitization of customer support, the new standard is much more than a phone conversation with a call center representative or a visit from a field agent.

Is customer service the frontline? Really? Are we called to duty on the frontline battling customers? Doctors and nurses don’t serve their ailing patients. They care. So shouldn’t customer service be customer care? Or even better …. We are the Customer CARE team. We CARE for each member of our team: We COMMUNICATE with each other. We listen to our team’s questions, concerns, and complaints with empathy and compassion.

With new SaaS companies popping up every day and a customer-centric culture coming into play, there’s (understandably) some confusion about how to manage customer interactions. For many companies, the entire conversation takes place under the umbrella of Customer Support (or Technical Support). Some companies have separated these functions further and appointed specialized groups for Onboarding, Implementation, and Customer Education.

We all speak about expectations, customer expectations. They can be reasonable or extreme, and sometimes achievable or bizarre. But usually, they are appropriate. As a customer, I expect a basic minimum such as: The product or service should work as expected. The product or service should be reasonably priced and in line with similar products. The product or service should be safe to use.

QUI QUOTE: Nobody raves about a company that meets customer expectations. When you are working in customer service, you have been happy that your customers leave satisfied. You have sold them a product or service that meets their wants or needs. Or you solved their problem for them. You were happy because, in the end, you met their expectations and they were satisfied.

One of the most common questions we receive, as an NPS®-focused software business, is how Net Promoter Score® differs from the type of data you can extract by studying people’s reactions on social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. This is an easy question to answer, although one that’s best tackled in detail. Discussion on social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter can be a powerful, accurate and valuable signal of public opinion, whether it’s aimed towards a business,

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.
