I recently wrote about how important it is that brands not just be competent in delivering the products or services they provide to their Customers. From perusing your website, to making a selection there or in a physical location, to paying, to delivery, use, and re-purchase, Customers engage with your company along an entire journey [...]
You’ve heard this before, right? “Due to current circumstances, we’re experiencing longer-than-usual wait times.” Those “circumstances” can vary. Over the past twenty months, of course, it has been Covid-19. Sometimes it’s the holidays. Sometimes brands stiff-arm you without even giving you the courtesy of telling you why. There’s even a brand that I call rarely…maybe [...]
I’m always championing active use of your Voice of the Customer (VoC) insights. After all, I say, if you’re just collecting your Customers’ insights but not doing anything with them, that’s a huge waste of resources. Normally when I talk about that, I’m referring to the importance of having a robust and enterprise-wide Process Engineering [...]

Nothing is 100%. Things fail, products break, even very important services go dark from time to time. A Customer who expects and demands perfection is certain to be disappointed pretty often, and in fact is being somewhat unreasonable, if you ask me. With this understood and its obvious importance, then, why is Customer Support so [...]
May I offer a modest suggestion about CX? Here it is: The purpose of Customer Experience as an endeavor (a department, a practice, a field of study, etc.) is to improve the alignment between what your company says it’s all about (call it mission/vision, corporate values/principles, or simply Brand Promise) and the experience your Customers [...]
I can't believe I'm finally here... You can order the book on Amazon at this link.
With text analytics and artificial intelligence and sentiment analysis, technology has really moved us into a new world of possibilities when it comes to understanding our Customers’ feedback in a variety of formats. I’ve seen some pretty amazing uses of this new world of business analytics and high-level number-crunching. The way some software out there [...]
