Good CX Principle #5: Every Customer Elite

We’re now up to the last of the Five Principles of CX (you can find an introduction to this series here, and parts one, two, three, and four at these links), Every Customer Elite.  This may sound like the usual boilerplate feel-goodery that comes with CX leaders and writers all the time:  Put the Customers [...]

Good CX Principle #4: No near-misses

We’re up now to the fourth of the Five Principles of CX:  No Near Misses.  We’ve covered already how it’s our responsibility to avoid issues in the first place (Principle 1, Get It Right) and how important it is to keep the lines of communication open and take on the stress of our own internal [...]

Good CX Principle #3: Take on the stress

Today I’m posting the third article in a five-part series on the Principles of Good CX.  There’s an intro to the series here, and parts one and two are here and here, respectively. I’ve previously mentioned the tongue-in-cheek observation that our jobs would all be a lot easier without the Customers, right?  (Forget that our jobs [...]

Good CX Principle #2: Communicate

In this, the second installment of a five-part series on the Principles of Good CX (Intro here, and Part One here), I’ll present the principle of Communication.  It’s pretty obvious that this is important, but that makes it even more surprising that so many organizations get it so wrong. I recently spent literally two weeks [...]

Good CX Principle #1: Get it Right

In my time as a CX professional, I’ve developed what I call the Five Principles of CX.  I’ll go through them over the course of five articles starting here with the first one:  Get It Right (GIR).  (I posted an introduction to the series here.)  Although not universally the case, and it’s not a good [...]

An introduction to the Principles of Good CX

I wouldn’t be a self-serving, self-promoting consultant if I didn’t have a few frameworks to show you, so at the risk of shaming myself and losing my membership card, here’s another one.  Over the course of five articles, I’ll get into each of them, but here I’ll lay out what I term the Principles of [...]

Two roles of a Chief Customer Officer

The concept of a Chief Customer Officer (CCO or, sometimes, CXO) is still pretty fresh for a lot of organizations.  I’ve even posted a video to go over some of the simple questions like, Why should you have a CCO and what are the benefits?  But just what a CCO is sometimes feels foreign, even though [...]

CX…inside Customer Support?

Where is your CX function located? That’s a common question often used to kick off conversations on many webinars and conference chats.  For a while I found it mildly interesting as a survey question and as an icebreaker or a means of getting people engaged right off the bat.  But the more I found the [...]
