A Canadian food chain Iq Food Co. is like most of the others. It has an assortment of food choices ranging from snacks to meals and even coffee and tea. But if you want to buy anything at their soon-to-be eleven locations, your money is no good there—quite literally. Iq Food Co. does not take cash. The restaurant’s founder Alan Bekerman said it was one less thing to think about when he made the decision back in February 2016.

I have a friend who works in marketing. Even though the normal way we think about marketing involves everything being branded and polished, she says — and I mostly agree — that some of the best marketing “leans into the skid.” What does that mean? Well, your brand probably isn’t perfect. It has flaws and it makes mistakes.

Everyone working in customer experience (CX) wants to know if their time and resources are well spent. CX can be a messy space , full of different beliefs and potential paths to follow.

I hate to break this news to you, but your customers most often interact with your organization because they have to, not because they want to. And when they do connect with you, it’s part of a larger journey that they’re on to achieve something more important than the interaction with you. That’s why it’s critical for organizations to understand and to design experiences for their customers’ journeys.

A perennial problem for any Customer Experience Professional around the world is to find an effective way to engage people with the significance of the subject.

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 finally send off an email that answers all your customer’s questions. But before you can congratulate yourself with a pat on the shoulder, they’ve replied with a dozen more queries. Or even worse, they’ve – inexplicably – become angry! Don’t they understand what you meant? Don’t they get you’ve got more customers to deal with?

When you think of company culture, what comes to mind? Free lunch, ping pong tables, onsite gym, slide in the lobby? I consider these perks, which are certainly an expression of a company’s culture, but not the actual culture in itself. So what, exactly, is company culture?

Nonetheless I do relate to a lot of the stereotypes associated with my generation, although I don’t remember getting a trophy when we lost, I think that must have started later.
