Your ability to understand how to meet customer expectations has a significant impact on business strategy and overall success. A voice of the customer program provides you with insights that help deliver a superior customer experience. So, who owns the Voice of Customer? Think of the customer experience as a car. Voice of the Customer data is the fuel that allows that car to move. If you own the car you sure own the gasoline in its tank. Therefore, whoever owns the customer experience owns the voice of customer.

In short, both the customer initially and ultimately the CSM’s own company as well are beneficiaries of customer success management. These two beneficiaries could be looked on as being direct and indirect beneficiaries respectively, in the sense that the majority of what the CSM actually does is directly related to benefitting the customer’s organization through the processes of understanding and planning for and then actually undergoing the onboarding and adoption of and the value realization from whatever products and services they have purchased from the CSM’s company. In this way, the customer gains direct benefits from this action.

Ask anyone. There are many companies out there that make use of several tools as a means for communicating with their visitors or customers on their website, be it through a chatbot, feedback form or direct review. Now, you might be thinking ‘Hey these are basically classified as customer experience tools and I have one!’ and because you already utilise one of these tools, there is nothing else you need to do to improve the customer experience. Well that’s not entirely true…

Voice of the Customer (VoC) programmes are intended to capture the opinions and preferences of all customers, analyse those insights, and use them to create meaningful changes in customer experience (CX). Having a VoC programme in place has become increasingly more popular and essential, especially as more and more businesses (nearly 72% to be precise) continue to place CX as their top priority. So how do you know which type of VoC software is right for your business?

A great customer experience is important in all industries, but in a world of ever-growing consumer expectations, it's critical for retailers. In fact, according to Forrester, "the key to successful retailing in 2018 is obsessing about customer experience." Many retailers are already "obsessed" with the customer experience, but the question is: are they acting upon this obsession?

Many companies seeking to improve their Customer Experience (CX) understand the importance of putting the customer at the center of everything they do. Doing it, however, flummoxes them.
Not all companies have this problem though. Those that have excellent experiences, the kind that makes their brand name a household one, demonstrate actual customer-centricity in their CX.

Alexa, Siri, Google Voice Assistant. These have become household names, and indeed are members of many households, helping us with information, entertainment and even shopping. All four of these, as well as others under development, are platforms that seek to provide the answers to the questions their users are asking — all their questions.
But like humans, there are some things that these AI-based voice assistants do better than others. Ask Alexa to tell you a joke, and she'll dig deep into her archives to tickle your funny bone. Ask Siri where the best Mexican food in the neighborhood is and he'll come back with a list that will run the gamut of south of the border regional cuisine, from Bajas to Veracruz.

In the world of customer service, understanding your customers and their needs is critical to the success of your organization. Sometimes these needs are clear and easy to meet, and other times it can be more difficult to understand what your customers require. That’s why it’s so important to listen to the voice of the customer and use your findings from doing so to shape your organization’s customer experience.

There’s no denying that the focus on delivering great customer experiences (CX) has increased globally over the past few years. What once was a luxury that only a few companies had the resources to invest in (think Amazon and Netflix), has now become a staple on the CEO agenda.
In an extremely competitive world where customers demand a personalized experience, really knowing and understanding your customers is so crucial. But how do you do it well? This is where a lot of companies take a wrong turn.

It's fair to say companies have recognized the power of customer experience (CX). Think of the great lengths businesses have gone to provide features such as one-click ordering or same-day delivery. We at Walker predicted this in our 2013 report “Customers 2020,” in which we revealed a rise in the influence of customer experience and a decline in traditional methods of differentiation based on products and price. It appears we got that one right. CX is now widely considered one of the best ways to establish a competitive advantage.
However, it’s clear that not all companies have caught on. In particular, new research shows business-to-business (B2B) firms are not keeping up with these trends.
