When you are working in customer service, you have been happy that your customers leave satisfied. You have sold them a product or service that meets their wants or needs. Or you solved their problem for them. You were happy because, in the end, they were satisfied. But their satisfaction does not guarantee their return. The good news is that your satisfied customers didn’t complain.

Lately, my Customer Experiences have been lousy. At the beginning of the pandemic, I was more understanding when Customer Experiences weren’t great. However, 18 months later, my patience has run out, and organizations should have sorted things out by now. So, since the state of things is such a mess at the moment, we did a podcast on the 5 Rules to Dramatically Improve the Way You Deal with Customer Complaints, and I thought I would share them here as well. .

Have you ever heard, “Customer Satisfaction isn’t necessary for a business success?”. Probably not! Because without satisfying the customer’s needs, you cannot offer them a delightful experience, which inevitably results in customer churn and poor revenue generation. Hence, if you aren’t strategically thinking about customer satisfaction, you’re probably following a risky approach.

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.

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.
