It’s no longer good enough to listen to customers just for the sake of listening. In the age of the experience, brands need to listen to improve the customer experience if they have a hope of staying relevant.
Enter voice-of-the-customer (VoC), a concept used in business and IT to describe the in-depth process of capturing customer’s expectations, preferences and aversions.
According to Forrester, companies are using VoC programs to collect and analyse customer feedback, inform customer experience (CX) improvements, and track the results of those improvements. But while VoC has been on the radar for several years, maturity across companies and their VoC programs is at extreme ends of the spectrum and many are just getting started.

As a contact center leader, your customers love working with you. Your agents love working for you. Your peers love working alongside you. Under your guidance, your team consistently achieves top performance scores and high customer satisfaction ratings. You seem able to accomplish whichever task is put in front of you, and you relish new challenges that come your way. You’re truly a rock-star contact center manager or supervisor.
Out of everyone working in your organization, it seems like you at a minimum should be anointed with “Voice of the Customer (VoC) Superhero” status, right?

If your company is looking to generate feedback through a customer satisfaction survey, you’re not alone. In fact, 84 percent of companies report that they actively seek regular input from their consumers, and 89 percent of companies compete directly with other businesses based on the customer experience alone. This data emphasizes the importance of an effective Voice of the Customer (VoC) program, but unfortunately, many organizations are not using VoC programs to their full potential. Far too many businesses collect the feedback then forget about it during the decision-making process, and all of that rich, relevant data about the consumer experience is wasted.

The ecommerce industry has experienced a tremendous amount of growth in the past decade. Having jumped from 3.5% of all retail sales in 2008 to nearly 11.9% in 2018, this growth – in combination with a (still) relatively low market share – represents a huge opportunity for more innovative ecommerce companies looking to overtake their traditional counterparts.
However, in order to latch on to the ‘growth train’, these same ecommerce companies (and therefore, ecommerce managers) are going to have to put their best foot forward. In other words, they’ll need to be sure that they are providing a first-rate online customer experience. And the best way to do this is to start listening to the voice of the customer. After all, your customers can be your best resource in terms of understanding what you’re doing wrong (or right!) on your website or mobile app. So allow me to introduce you to online feedback…

Anyone selling into the government market knows it takes time, patience and investment. The rewards can be great, both intangibly through satisfaction in serving the public good, and financially by winning contracts that can be stable and long term. But competing in this space is no small feat.
It’s no longer enough to count on past performance, a low price and (for smaller businesses) a set-aside designation to give you the winning advantage. Correctly positioning and actively promoting your brand and your win themes has become equally important to standing out in a crowded market.

It’s no secret that it costs 5 to 25x more to acquire a new customer than it does to keep a current one. It should also come as no surprise then that it’s much easier to sell to an existing customer than a new one. Marketing Metrics reports that businesses only have a 5-25% chance of selling to a new prospect, but they have a 60-70% chance of selling to a returning customer.
The inbound methodology is all about helping customers at every step of the buyer’s journey and beyond to turn happy customers into promoters. So, how do you know your customers are happy? And if they’re not, how are you handling their concerns? What else do they need that you could offer them?
Actively collecting and listening to customer feedback is a process called Voice of the Customer (VoC). VoC is about knowing how your customers perceive your company, how they feel about the products/services they've purchased, and what other needs they may have that you can address.

Customer experience (CX) is today’s competitive battleground, so it may come as no surprise that CX is now a strategic imperative for many contact centers.
In fact, according to a recent survey of more than 450 contact center leaders by Deloitte, CX ranked as the most important strategic initiative in the contact center—far outpacing revenue growth and cost containment. And, many contact center leaders report that they are now being held primarily accountable for improving their organizations’ overall customer experience.
Tapping into Voice of the Customer (VoC) has long been used as a method to understand where improvements to customer experience are warranted. It makes a lot of sense that if you’re seeking to improve the experience of your customers, you should ask them about where and how to do so.
