For years price, product and quality were most important. Organizations didn’t even think of their customer needs. Nowadays the Voice of the Customer is more important than ever. In the previous blog we gave an introduction about what Voice of the Customer is and the importance of listening to the customer. The question is not so much why you want to use VOC for your organization, but when you start with it to improve customer focus.

Voice of customer (VOC) programs are becoming increasingly popular with marketers, but there are some general do’s and don’ts to follow if they're going to succeed.
CMO reached out to three industry commentators to reveal what’s hot and what’s not on their voice of customer approach and what it takes to successfully create and implement a program.
But first, let’s be clear on what a voice of customer program is comprised of. According to InMoment customer experience expert, Andrew Park, a comprehensive voice of customer programs is comprised of four distinct components: Listening (collecting data), understanding (analysing data for insights), sharing (distributing the insites across the enterprise), and taking action.

Are you in the habit of closing the loop with customers that offer negative feedback on post-interaction surveys like Customer Satisfaction or Net Promoter Score? I certainly hope so, because it’s a great practice that many companies aren’t in the habit of doing. When I led a customer service team, I was very proud of the fact that we made every attempt at closing the loop with the upset customers we knew about, and by some combination of resolving their issue and offering compensation, we managed to save a good many of them from churning.
But what about those customers that don’t complete a survey voicing their displeasure? What about those where something goes wrong and it’s “too much trouble to complain?” Or perhaps they do complain and the disinterested reply from support is enough for the customer to cut their losses and move on to a company that actually wants their business. And then there’s that statistic where upset customers tell dozens of people about negative experiences while happy customers tell a small handful of their friends. I’m convinced that someone invented that statistic to strike fear into the hearts of customer service leaders with the sole purpose of selling books, software, consulting, etc.

Investing in the customer experience is proven time and again to be foundational to any business’ success. Yet how many businesses regularly ask its customers for feedback? Voice of Customer (VoC) programs refer to the processes that exist for listening to customer feedback. Amazingly, only 29% of businesses with VoC programs systematically incorporate customer insights into their decision-making processes.

Most digital marketers agree that landing pages can make or break any campaign, be it PPC, social media, email, or display ads. Once you get people to click, the landing page has to convince your visitor to complete the conversion.
To assist in the goal of landing page success, a number of software platforms exist to help marketers test landing page elements. Visuals, calls-to-action (CTAs), layouts, offers, buttons, and many more elements can be tested. Software can help you conduct A/B tests and create new landing pages on the fly. Just a tweak with the placement of a key visual element might lead to a significant increase in landing page performance.

In this highly competitive environment, how can you optimize your people-based marketing? People-based marketing is only as powerful as the data you feed into it.

Marketers often leverage their CRM or loyalty database to build people-based marketing profiles, however many have now also begun to tap into one of the richest sources of first-party data — the voice of the customer captured through their phone calls to businesses.

Too many marketers assume that their strategies and offers are engaging their customers. This assumption is often wrong. Unless you are engaged in two-way dialogue and providing value-added communications…you have NO idea what customers think about your business and your marketing tactics.
We just completed VoC research for a major up and coming brand. A key competitive differentiator cited by customers was that the company provides ongoing opportunities for feedback in all communications and sends friendly, engaging surveys and then acts on the suggestions from customers! That makes customers feel included and valued.
Additional findings from our 16,000 plus hours of VoC interviews indicate that there is a dangerous chasm between the CX fantasies of brands versus the disappointing CX realities of most consumers.
