People do business with people they like. That’s about the oldest known business strategy! And it still holds true today, particularly in B2B environments, although it may look a little different today than it did back when (quarterly business reviews over a Zoom call versus a two-martini lunch, for example). Just as any relationship takes time to build, developing a trust with your customers that feels almost like a friendship will take time as well.

Are you perceived as being too easy to work with? Think about it. Yes, you focus on being a team player. And you always try to do “whatever it takes” to acquire and/or serve colleagues and customers. Yet colleagues and clients just do not take you as seriously as you wish to be regarded (and respected). Why? In your quest to be regarded as easy to work, you can fall into these two professional pitfalls.

Every time I need to buy a pair of jeans, I trick myself into thinking it’ll be an easy process. I’m sure I can simply order from the last place I bought them or just check a few stores. Inevitably, the place I ordered from last time changed something about the fit or material, and the in-store options are lacking. I end up making a bunch of trips, printing out shipping labels like it’s a part-time job, and still have no denim to show for the trouble.

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.
