However, there are many different survey methods to choose from to measure a customer’s experience — including Customer Effort Score (CES) , Net Promoter Score (NPS) , and many more. Which begs the question: In today’s environment, is the Customer Satisfaction Score (CSAT) survey still relevant?

“Customer delight is incredibly important, but it’s also insufficient,” says Jon Herstein , Chief Customer Officer at Box , a cloud content management company that serves about 90,000 customers.

Surprise and delight is a great customer service concept. Or is it? The concept behind surprise and delight is to surprise the customer with a level of experience that they weren’t expecting. Obviously, it should be a positive experience. Otherwise, the concept would be called surprise and disappoint. Nobody wants that!

Customers need to easily be able to find answers to questions and contact support when issues arise.

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.

We are always talking about how CX is a continuously changing practice that shifts to align with the current customer expectations and cultural norms. Yet we seldom discuss past iterations of CX that are no longer relevant to the market. While anticipation is key, reflecting on the history of CX can help to identify the factors that contributed towards changes in the past, and, in-turn help companies to become more equipped to both anticipate and cope with future changes. .

You can work on your business strategy endlessly, and if there is one thing you can be sure of, it is that you’ll have to change your company strategy at some point. No strategy should be set in stone, unless you want to kill your company – which I strongly believe you work very hard not to do. A business strategy is usually built around a set of hypotheses, some of which will be valid, while others will be erroneous.
