The concept of ESG has had its place in the business world for a couple of decades, but it is only recently that it has become mainstream. One of the more complex aspects of upholding the standards a company values is ensuring its vendors are similarly committed. This holds especially true in the world of outsourced customer service, where your vendor is literally representing your brand and your values.

In the world of customer service and technical support, a significant challenge often goes unaddressed: the visual gap. This gap represents the disconnect between customers and service agents, where words fail to convey the full picture of an issue or solution. Without visual assistance, customers struggle to describe technical problems or product statuses, and agents are left to navigate these challenges “blind” without seeing the actual issue.

I love seeing amazement in action. I was at the airport last week with a friend who accidentally spilled his soda. Within moments, an airport employee came over with a bucket and mop to clean up the spill. My friend apologized for making a mess, and the woman’s response surprised both of us. She said, “My name is Laura, and it is my pleasure to clean up your spill.

As you might imagine, just about everyone raised their hand.

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.

I was talking to a friend the other day. He purchased an expensive new car just eight months ago. Unfortunately, the car turned out to be a “lemon,” and he has taken it back to the dealer multiple times for various problems. The car has spent more time at the repair center than in his garage. If it were me, I’d ask the dealer to replace the car. Apparently, he has more patience than I do and was giving the dealer another chance to fix the car.

Putting on a successful event is no easy feat: a lot goes into creating a positive event experience for attendees, from finding compelling speakers to inviting the right sponsors. One way to measure attendee satisfaction is by surveying them after the event with the right post-event survey questions. Without evidence of what worked and what didn’t at your event, it’s much more difficult to plan future events that your stakeholders want to attend.
