If you Google customer experience you’ll get about 2,340,000,000 results—articles, videos, reports—with in-depth information about the space. All these resources promise to offer the one right solution to delivering a great customer experience (CX), but there’s one problem: that one right solution is actually different depending on the source. This leaves you with more uncertainty about CX than you had at the start of your research. .

The most critical element to improving your company is not having a visionary CEO, leaders who have “been there/done that,” or teams working long hours to deliver the product: it’s actively capitalizing on the voice of the customer feedback. Voice of the customer feedback is any comment or concern given by a customer to your company. 67% of customers are willing to pay more for better customer experience and the best way to improve is to listen to your customers.

It’s no secret that emotions drive behavior. Happy people whistle. Angry drivers crash cars. And now, with the help of emotion analytics, more companies are tuning into their customers’ feelings in an attempt to learn what makes them tick. Take, for example, a new telco customer and the wide range of emotions they could experience along their personal journey with the company: excitement when unboxing, frustration during installation, annoyance at being transferred between departments, relief at

In 2004, I presented to an insurance company in Germany about how they should be evoking the proper emotions in their customers. It was a tough audience. One of the guys asked, “How much money are we going to get back by doing this?”. It was not an unfair question, but it was one for which I had no answer. We needed to change that and so began two-years’ worth of research with the London Business School to identify which emotions drive and destroy value.

Quite simply, poor customer service will eventually spell the end of an organization – according to the White House Office of Consumer Affairs, customers who are the victims of an unhappy experience will tell 9 to 15 people about it.

You should never ignore the importance of customer satisfaction. There are dozens of factors contributing to the success (or failure) of a business, customer satisfaction is one of them. It’s important to track this factor and work on improving it in order to make your customers more loyal and eventually turn them into brand ambassadors. If you don’t care about customers’ satisfaction, don’t expect them to care about your services or products.

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.

Customer service is typically what transpires between people throughout the buying process or when there is a problem. That’s part of the customer experience, but there is much more to CX than service.
