Organizations use lots of incentives to encourage specific behaviors. The idea is that people will change behavior because of the monetary element of incentives. However, these incentives could be doing a lot more than that, which can have beautiful or terrible effects on your customer-driven growth. Ph.D. student Alicea “Allie” Lieberman from the University of California, San Diego, was a guest on our podcast recently to discuss incentives.

By Peg Ayers. Everybody wants to improve the Customer Experience (CX) they provide, right? But maybe you believe it’s just too expensive to even think about it. Your organization is doing its best with the resources it has. What else can you do? Plenty! Providing poor CX is incredibly expensive! A 2019 survey, which interviewed more than 6,000 consumers in Australia, Europe, the United Kingdom and the United States says 72% of respondents said, “I am loyal to a certain brand, but as soon as

Here’s a story I’ve seen played out multiple times: An executive believes in the power of customer experience (CX). Perhaps they read an article, or they heard about a CX program another company offered, or saw a competitor speak at a conference. For whatever reason, the executive saw the light, and wanted a CX program […]. The post Three Ways to Show Business Impact for Your CX Program appeared first on Heart of the Customer.

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.

Loss Aversion teaches us that people like to gain things, but that they like hanging on to what they have even more and feel losses much more profoundly than gains. So, you would think that effective policy to reduce disposable bag usage by charging a surcharge for a grocery bag would tap into these feelings. Not so fast. New research reveals that Loss Aversion is not the reason for the grocery bag surcharge’s success.

The coronavirus pandemic has ushered in a new way of life for people around the world. And, no big shocker here: Our collective behavior is impacting businesses large and small. With data starting to trickle out about what people are actually doing during the time of COVID-19, I thought it would be helpful to consolidate this information so that businesses can make informed decisions about how to move forward.

If there’s one thing you’re going to need during a crisis, it’s more hands-on-deck. It’s both sad and confusing to see some contact centers laying off support staff when they’re so obviously needed right now. Your customer’s experience with you during this crisis is important; don’t ruin the relationship in the future by abandoning your customer service now.

Especially in an era of remote work, it can be difficult to manage the morale of your customer support team. After all, a support agent isn’t a career choice for professionals who are afraid to talk to people. Support teams in the B2B (business-to-business) industry are often full of social personalities and employees who choose to work in an office environment where they can collaborate with colleagues to solve problems.

Question: How should agents handle calls when customers are sharing their fears and concerns about the Coronavirus pandemic – or other personal issues, for that matter? Answer: Although the current COVID-19 pandemic is different from anything we’ve experienced and worked through to date, fundamental contact handling communication or “soft” skills that have been around for years can still help guide interactions between customers and agents during these trying times.

Use Partnering Language to Create Calm and De-escalate Intense Interactions (Especially now, when customers are panicked). When a customer reaches out to you about a problem, they usually don’t think things will be easy. They expect to have to push for what they want. To customers, it’s them against you. Visually, it’s like this. There’s a brick wall between you and your customer.

We need to better understand shoppers. Why? Because retail is in crisis. Investment in bricks and mortar stores has declined 30% in the US and a staggering 50% in Europe. In the UK 50,000 of the 500,000 high street stores are empty , that’s a whopping 10%. But that level can even be higher, double or triple that in some parts of the country. The government in the UK just upped its rescue fund to a billion pounds and slashed its rates in the hope of lowering rents.
