No longer because of their appointment of an up and coming CEO (that just happened to be female).

As soon as these price-conscious customers find a retailer or any other type of business or vendor with a lower price than the one they have been doing business with, they will move.

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.

Episode Overview. Tish Whitcraft is what we call a serial Chief Customer Officer, or CCO. She has held a version of this role in over four technology driven and internet companies, including Yahoo, MySpace, and OpenX. In our conversation, Tish walks us through her expanded version of the CCO Role. In her mind (“in her humble opinion”), it’s a mix of the newly-established CCO role and the long-tenured COO, or Chief Operating Officer, role.

When you ask a person why they bought something, they can always tell you straightaway. It might not be the reason, but it’s the reason they give. Is the person lying? Except for rare exceptions (politicians, criminals, celebrities learning too late that Twitter and Booze don’t mix), not at all. Many times people don’t know the real reason they did something.

Within my five-competency customer experience framework , I often call No. 1 — honor and manage customers as assets — the “clincher competency.” This is where you begin to move customers away from being perceived as a cost center and towards being perceived as assets. Let me explain a little bit about what I mean. If I go work with a company on their customer experience delivery, oftentimes I ask executives if they know the volume and value of their new customers.
