After my wife Lorraine and I ordered dinner in a restaurant the other night, I decided to have a glass of wine. Now, where was our waiter? I looked around and realized I didn’t have a clue what he looked like. So I asked Lorraine. “Do you see our waiter?” She craned her neck and then shrugged. It seems neither of us could remember the face of the fellow who had, just moments before, told us about the night’s specials in great detail.

“Gareth! Coffee! Now!” On a cold mid-winter morning in 2030, I’m snarling at Gareth as the robot scans my espresso-maker. His chest screen displays details about the internal adjustments he’s about to make, adjustments that his display told me to make weeks ago. “You realize this going to delay me by at least five minutes,” I complain.

Improving customer support has become more important than ever, given the never-ceasing expectations of customers. As leading researchers indicate that organizations lose about $62 million every year due to poor customer service , you can’t expect any good with an average customer support. No matter how great your product your service is, you can’t sustain market competition without a top of the line customer service.

I have led hundreds of successful Customer Experience (CX) program successes. I have also led a couple that failed. What’s the difference between the successes and the failures? A few things, but one of the most significant is the way an organization’s culture is centered. Organizations fail to improve their CX when they lack customer-centricity. Customer-centricity requires you to put the Customer at the center of everything you do.

When setting up customer experience (CX) programs our clients often ask, “How big of a sample do we need to get representative data”? Like all good researchers our answer is usually, “It depends”. While technically true, that answer is not always helpful. Below I will argue that for most CX programs you probably don’t want. View Article.

How did people find answers before the internet? Even those of us old enough to remember a life pre-web struggle to recall how we did our homework, checked for correct spellings or even resisted the urge to ask those questions we wouldn’t dare ask aloud without the relative safety of a search engine like Google. And yet humans somehow managed to exist before the World Wide Web was created in 1989.

Since customer support tools are the last line of defense and it’s what (eventually) is used to facilitate solving a user’s problem at some expense, they've never had the chance to evolve into something more powerful than reactive systems. What's more, because it's the last line of defence it's what often gets the credit. It's like giving morphine credit for fixing a broken arm.

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.

Channel meant physical route to market e.g. retail, wholesale, intermediated, direct, etc. Media meant one- or two-way communications devices e.g. TV, radio, telephone, website, email, webchat, face-to-face, etc. These terms have effectively amalgamated since we started to become “multi channel”. eCommerce kicked this off on a massive scale, although the catalog and home shopping industry would say it’s been going for a l

Customers expect to be able to interact with your organization whenever and however they want. They also expect your agents to have insights into their journeys so that they don’t have to repeat themselves as they move through various channels. And, if they’re not able to, they just might find one of your competitors who will offer the flexibility they are looking for.
