While NPS is a valuable customer experience metric , it also opens you up to a lot of criticism from detractors, or customers who give you a score of 6 or below. It’s the feedback no one likes to get: this person would definitely not refer business to you.

When you treat employees like rock stars, they will treat your customers like rock stars. That is what employee engagement is all about. Great leaders have preached that when you treat your employees well, they treat their customers – and fellow employees well. My friend and fellow customer experience expert, James Dodkins, has a great way of saying it: If you want to put your customers first, you need to put your employees first, first.

Speaker: Nicholas Zeisler, CX Strategist & Fractional CXO
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.

Here’s a scenario I’m hearing about more and more regularly: In an effort to cut costs, Company X decides to replace the humans in their call centers with bots. In theory ( and in Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s mind ) it makes perfect sense. In the United States, one in 25 employees is a call center worker and staffing costs are often one of a company’s biggest expense, so why not invest in a cheap technology that will lower that line item?
