Customer experience leaders often talk with confidence about their Voice of the Customer (VoC) programs. They boast about how often they survey customers, collect feedback via fancy technologies, and produce reports with color-coded graphs.

This is why some companies get a bad rap! Our colleague here at Shepard Presentations, Nate Jones, shared a story about something that recently happened to his father. This is a great customer service training lesson. He bought a new car. About a month later he’s in a parking lot and the car won’t start. So, he calls the dealership’s customer service number, which was actually a support center for all of that brand’s dealerships in the U.S. – maybe even the world.

Emotions rule your customers’ buying decisions. Sure, their rationality weighs in sometimes, too, but often, it’s the emotional side that drives customers to buy. These two parts of us, the emotional and the rational represent the two ways of thinking that serve as the foundation for understanding customer behavior. Knowing how these two systems of thinking work together and, in some cases, against each other to make decisions is vital to achieving customer-driven growth.

We also, as an industry, have exponentially more data and insight about consumer behaviors around these channels.

Social media is bad for customer service. Whether ranting or raving, customers are telling stories online about businesses whether those businesses are listening or not. With customers using platforms like Twitter and Facebook to complain loudly and sometimes virally to the world, companies have had to add resources to respond accordingly. But I am not against monitoring social media or using it as a responsive customer service channel.

Let’s imagine that you’re an account manager with 200 customers. If you know that 80 percent of your revenue comes from 20 percent of those customers, what do you think happens to the other 80 percent that only accounts for 20 percent of the revenue? Yep, you guessed right, not much. However, the reason not much happens with these accounts could be influenced by the biological amount of bandwidth you have for maintaining relationships.
