It is critical to consider the “anatomy” of an interaction in a Customer Experience. The sheer number of things that occur in an interaction at the same time can seem astonishing. Understanding what happens when your team interacts with a customer and why it is an essential element to taking your Customer Experience to the next level. The Anatomy of a Customer Interaction can make or break your Customer Experience.

Your most important assets are not your customers and your employees. It’s how your customers and your employees feel about your company. Your success as a customer service manager is directly proportional to your ability to drive simultaneously customer satisfaction and employee engagement. Happy employees are inclined to go above and beyond for your customers.

I’ve been flying major airlines for a long time, and like everyone else, I’ve noticed the changes – and not in a good way. The checked baggage fees. The snacks we don’t get anymore. Exorbitant fees to change an itinerary and seats that are way too cramped. At one point, carriers said these changes were necessary to stay afloat amid skyrocketing fuel prices.

I recently received this question from a reader in the UK: Which is more effective, creating journey maps based on actual customer stories or creating journey maps based on stories created (imagined) by employees? That’s a great question. But it’s actually not a matter of which one is more effective. In fact, both types of maps are essential components of any journey mapping process.

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.

As a customer success professional, it’s not uncommon to look at customer churn and ask yourself, “What are we doing wrong?” While everyone makes mistakes sometimes, there are clear trends in customer success that can be addressed with strategy and insight.

Clients who want to bring customers into a co-creation workshop frequently ask us about the logistics—like the right incentives to get people to participate and which customers should (and shouldn’t) be invited. But often our clients are most worried about over-promising the actions they’ll take after customers go home: How do we solicit feedback about what’s broken in today’s experience without promising to fix every detail?

A few years ago, one of my best friends bought me a poster. It arrived in a large envelope, folded up into quarters. As I pulled it out, I could see that one side was blank white and, as my fingertips soon discovered, the other side was covered in a thick carbon film. It was impossible to remove the poster without getting the carbon all over my hands… With every movement, my fingers acquired more powder and promptly dotted the periphery of the blank white side with black smudges.
