Just because a customer clicked a smiley face in your post-service feedback survey does not mean you gave them high-quality service. They might love the product, and your service is just okay enough not to make a difference. Or they might be very happy with an answer, not knowing you’ve given them incomplete or out-of-date information.

One of the favorite chapters I wrote in my recent book, I’ll Be Back: How to Get Customers to Come Back Again and Again , was about why customers would terminate their relationship with you. Yes, the word terminate ties into the movie Terminator , which somehow became a theme in the background of the book. So, why would a customer terminate his or her relationship with you?

If you have ever been drawn to the words “ artificial intelligence ” in a sales pitch or wondered if machine learning could improve your business, you might have also questioned if your use case is even a good fit for what a machine learning model can do.

Change is the only constant in life. The pandemic has taught us to expect the unexpected and adapt to survive. In fact, we were not given any warning or time to adapt. Million of companies around the world were forced to go into perpetual ”expect the unexpected” but have adapted to the unprecedented change and how beautifully they’ve done. COVID coerced many of us into a myopic mindset- questioning ourselves and feeling depressed about setbacks.

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.
