The unpredictability of an economic downturn, such as the continuing COVID-19 pandemic, can introduce uncertainty into the relationship between you and your customer. Sudden and unexpected external forces beyond the control of either of you can also lead to unanticipated customer behavior. During difficult times, it is especially important to understand what is going on inside your customer’s mind, as well as what is going on inside their business.

Every customer expects fast and accurate service. But too often customers who contact a business are put in a queue where they must “wait for the next available agent.” If the customer’s issue can’t be resolved by the first available agent, the service team transfers the customer around like a hot potato until the “right” agent can be found to mercifully resolve the issue.

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.

I once had a mentor whose cubicle walls were covered in certificates and evidence of completion of training and qualification. People considered him a bit of an egotist and obsessed with certifications. Credentialism is a thing, after all. But I asked him once about all his accreditations.

However, a lot depends on how primed a customer is to be converted. The talk-first strategy often leads to inefficient sales. Thankfully, there is an easy way to increase efficiency and supercharge your sales: a pre-sales questionnaire. .
