With the current economic condition, many organizations have been forced to cut costs and reduce staffing levels. These kinds of business decisions can affect the remaining employee’s ability to stay positive and not focus on the negative. Employees need to be actively engaged so they can add value to the organization. The customer experience can be significantly affected when employees are not engaged.

'Customer service is entirely about meeting clients expectations and needs. Companies invest very significant amounts of money to finance the gathering of data based on questionnaires and purchasing habits. The most sophisticated are now moving to lifestyle analysis in order to develop more holistic offers. But what about the mood? A "know your client intimately" initiative should allow companies to find out what clients want now and adjust their services accordingly.

Customer experiences ultimately make the difference between customers walking through the door of your business or that of your competition. It doesn’t happen by chance because all functions in an organization need to be aligned in order for the process to run perfectly. We want those customers to become fans; think Pittsburgh Steelers and Greenbay Packers Superbowl – the ultimate in “wow&# experience.

'How to define customer service? Agreeing an universal customer service definition is not an easy task. Numerous procedures, books and manuals illustrate the excellent contributions made to come up with the best customer service definition. The formula is then applied to the business environment in an attempt to define a rigid framework for customer service.

Every business knows in order to keep customers, the organization needs to understand what is important. For instance, a company concentrates on core values including hiring, firing, promotions, slogans, and of course the products and services. In the normal realm of business, as we all look for the leading edge, it is most frequently price competition or offering more features at more attractive prices that bring us new customers and keep the old ones.

Everyone needs medical attention from time to time, and the professional medical community needs to think convenience, price, quality, and partnership. It used to be that a three-hour wait in the emergency room for a broken bone was to be expected, but that miserable experience has now gone the way of the dinosaur. Why? Customer service and expectations have changed the genre of urgent care as well as routine medical services.

Is it really poor customer service or do we as consumers expect too much? Do people really boycott businesses and restaurants the first time we feel we are treated poorly? When I first graduated from college, and of course I was poor, I purchased what to me was a very expensive white shirt with navy blue trim from Macy’s. I didn’t wear it for a while because it was way beyond my budget at the time, and so I waited for a special occasion to dress up and show it off.

ForeSee, a market research consulting company which rates website satisfaction reports both Amazon.com and Netflix.com as the best online retailers for customer satisfaction. Both companies scored 86 out of 100 – any score over 80 considered to be excellent. This is the sixth year of the survey, and both companies have consistently done well. What made Netflix so successful in the customer satisfaction category and how can we apply their success to our e-commerce future successes?

Some critics say that customer satisfaction surveys are merely retailer popularity contests, but I disagree. When the same organizations continue to rise to the top of survey after survey and that special quality sets them apart from their competition, there is most likely something to learn and serious food for thought. In Australia, Morgan Research surveyed 448 customers who had made purchases in the last four weeks in the non-food category of retailers.

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.

It was 7:00; prime dining time in crowded Palm Beach, but that’s just part of the dining experience in this town.
