If a company wants to improve its bottom line, it needs to focus on improving sales. That is only possible when the brand is addressing the right audience and solving their key problems. But, how can the brands achieve that? Being a mind reader sounds amazing, doesn’t it? Now, no need to lose hope. There still are different ways by which the companies can tap into what their customers’ pain areas are. Post that knowledge, they can plan their customer experience strategies to solve those problems.
In this article, we will be discussing the customer service pain areas of the customers – some pressing issues, urgent needs and what could be the possible solutions.

How do your customers really feel about your company? To find out, you could train employees to ask for feedback after each transaction, then feed those responses into a database. You could subject customers to a lengthy survey. You might also host periodic focus group meetings.
Or you could ask customers one simple question — and use their answers to determine your Net Promoter Score (NPS).

If you’re on your way to building your first voice of the customer program, you might be wondering if the entire process actually works. And by that I mean, is the customer feedback gathered through VOC programs actually useful and actionable, or should you brace yourself for a flurry of poorly thought out attacks on your industry as a whole? Moreover, one might wonder if the VOC movement is based on results, or if it’s just a way for brands to appear interested in their customer’s opinions.
So CMSWire spoke to five different brands who gave us five different ways they benefited directly from their own VOC programs. The proof, as they say, is in the pudding.

Any business with a VoC programme needs to have a set of metrics in place to maintain investment and demonstrate to employees that VoC isn’t a box ticking exercise. But which metrics should you use?
Although Voice of the Customer (VoC) programmes are widely acknowledged to be a key component to improving the customer experience, it’s not enough to just set up such a programme and assume it’ll help your business succeed. With tight budgets, even for well regarded programmes, it’s critical to measure and demonstrate the link between the Voice of the Customer and return on investment (ROI).

Now you know more about the importance of using KPI’s such as NPS (Net Promoter Score) when collecting the Voice of the Customer, we will explain two other much used customer centric KPI’s. These are CES (Customer Effort Score) and CSAT (Customer Satisfaction Score). Which KPI measures what and what will it deliver? In this blog you will find out.

When it comes to creating an outstanding customer experience, Voice of the Customer (VoC) programs are a top priority and area of differentiation for operations teams and CX leaders. According to Forrester, just 33% of CX professionals say their VoC program is effective at driving action to improve customer experience. This means there’s tremendous room for improvement in the implementation and execution of these programs.
VoC programs require a wide skill set, deep expertise, and a significant commitment from leadership within the company. As a result, it can be challenging to get these programs past the infancy stage. In many cases, leaders are looking for ROI, yet the programs don’t have what they need to impact business results. It’s time for strategies to evolve so that VoC programs can drive increased customer loyalty and proven ROI. For that to happen, there needs to be a fundamental shift where programs move from listening to customers to truly understanding them.

The travel industry, one of the world’s largest industries, has changed drastically over the last few years as a result of digitisation. Digitally confident customers now seek more control of the booking process, making the demands for good (online) service even higher than before. So what does this mean for travel marketers? You guessed it, the Voice of the Customer must become a top priority.

Listening to your customers and taking action to solve their challenges is the first essential step to Customer Success. That’s why Voice of the Customer (VoC) is a critical component to driving company-wide efforts to deliver value and happiness to clients. VoC consists of initiatives designed to capture customer insights, close the loop on feedback, and prioritize improvements to produce happy and successful clients.

According to Gartner CMO Spend Survey 2016-2017, customer experience is the top area of innovation being pursued by marketing leaders. Empowered with larger budgets and spend directed toward innovation efforts, marketing leaders look to analytics for proof that customer experience investments pay off. VoC analytics is often used alongside customer journey analytics in order to evaluate the customer experience across touchpoints and over time.
