My husband and I were sitting at the big boardroom table at the closing office. We’d just sold our first home, and we were now closing on our new home. We thought we were in great shape, but, something went wrong. The bank didn’t transfer the money for the purchase of our new home. I called our mortgage broker, who had handled every detail up to this point.

Can I be blunt? I mean, we’re friends, right? For longer than you can imagine, I’ve been on the front lines of corporate efforts to be more responsive to customers, which also implies to be more successful in the marketplace. Here’s the lesson I’ve learned: No amount of tactical improvements will elevate your company above all others. The only thing that will do this is to have a vision of how your company will be viewed 20 years or more from now.

According to Gartner ’s 2019 Strategic Roadmap for Customer Service and Support Technologies (May 2019), “an organization’s CSS technology stack is often composed of disparate overlapping systems, leaving both customers and employees with a disjointed experience.” Legacy customer support platforms were developed for the preferred communication channels at that time, which was traditionally voice.

Automated phone technology, such as interactive voice response (IVR) menus, can save businesses time and money on customer support. These solutions route callers to the right people without the help of a human operator. Larger businesses should consider IVR menus to streamline the customer support experience. They should not replace account managers and instead are optimized for streamlining after hours and emergency support communication.

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.

Lorsque l’un de leurs proches décède, de plus en plus de familles choisissent la crémation plutôt que l’inhumation.

Pour éclairer les familles et lever les derniers tabous sur cette pratique souvent plus économique qu’un enterrement, nous vous expliquons le déroulement d’une crémation.

Is your bank growing through acquisitions? If the answer yes, you know that mergers and acquisitions are never easy. Banks do their best to focus on systems, processes, employees and customers – ensuring alignment and smooth transition. But in our experience, customer experience typically takes a hit. If you are going through a merger or acquisition and measuring NPS, it's not unusual to see a 10 to 40-point dip in your scores.

It’s the end of a course, and it suddenly strikes you that you need the students to take a quiz the very next day. What would you do? Imagine sitting down with your laptop, trying to write the perfect quiz questions. It’d take you hours, and you might even find it difficult to think of the perfect quiz questions. On top of that, the hassle of distributing the quiz, waiting for the quiz participants to complete it, and then collecting it adds a few more hours.

The Internet all around us: the rise of the Spatial Web. In the coming years, the most impactful and paradigm shifting technological invention of the last 30 years – the internet – will disappear. It will be everywhere, of course, but it will also be mostly invisible. We’ve seen signs of this, for instance, in shops like Amazon Go where tech is everywhere and yet at the same time (almost) nowhere to be seen.

Downtown Salt Lake City is a city of juxtapositions. It’s a modern downtown city with skyscrapers and recently renovated industrial buildings, but it’s nestled up against the rugged backdrop of the Wasatch Front. Working professionals and startup CEOs sit and work in the same coffee shops and breweries as students and artists. On Main Street you’ll find a row of cocktail bars and taprooms, which naturally dead ends into Temple Square.

My daughter encouraged me to get a coupon savings app for a retail store, one that has a Starbucks nestled inside. I loaded my store debit card into the app, so I could leave my wallet behind when I shop. At Starbucks within the retail store, I ordered one of the last Venti cups of Pumpkin Spice latte of the season. The Barista, eying my fingers swiping for the retail store debit card in the app, saved me some money, “I see you’re using the Cartwheel app.
