Companies ignore the post-purchase experience at their peril

Alida

The post-purchase experience is mediocre at best for most consumers, and it’s a missed opportunity for your brand. The CMO Council’s recent report , Elevate What Consumers Appreciate , found that while most brands identify enhancing the product ownership experience as a key differentiator, there’s a significant gap in their efforts to take advantage of post-purchase revenue, profit and relationship-building opportunities.

Collecting Customer Feedback: Too Difficult or Too Easy?

Lumoa

For some companies collecting feedback is easy. Maybe even too easy: I’ve come across a big corporation, which collects feedback, stores it somewhere and does nothing with it. There are no resources to read it through. While server space is cheap, and this might feel like an easy way to make customers believe you listen to them, don’t do like this. You are just wasting your customers’ time and fooling yourself at the same time.
