I was texting with my daughter the other day and there was a pause in the conversation. I could see the three little dots. Surely she was typing a clever response to the remark I’d just made. I couldn’t wait to see it, so I sat there, phone in hand, staring stupidly at the little dots. I went on like this for maybe a minute and a half before I realized I was being silly.

The Net Promoter Score (NPS), a metric used to gauge the health of the customer relationship, has been used by companies for years. By applying data science principles to understanding the research behind the NPS, however, we see that the NPS claims have three serious problems.

Introduction. If you work in customer service, chances are you know the signs of a complaining customer. You might recognize them by their pointed tones, their defensive, often raised voices (over email or live chat, this may present itself as all caps writing), and their creative use of insults. You may recognize the way they hold up the line at checkout, the way they demand to speak to management, or the way a look of disbelief plants itself on their faces when they hear that what they are ask

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.

You’ve heard the phrase, “a chain is only as strong as its weakest link.” In customer experience, an exposed weak link—whether it’s marketing, service, or even your employees—can mean the difference between winning and losing customers to competitors, despite having the best product or service offer. To find and strengthen weak links, I tell my clients to create a checklist and use it to evaluate each area of their business every six months.
