Money fuels the finance industry, but there would be none coming in without loyal clients to hand it over. Although cash may be the reason you’re in business, customers are the more important commodity when it comes to keeping that business afloat. Trust plays a huge role in finance and banking. When it comes to protecting, investing and being responsible for customers’ money, they need to trust in the financial services company.

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.

Free is often an illusion. It looks free and may be advertised as free, but it’s not free. I’m not saying a company that claims something is free is lying. As consumers, we must be careful and understand the difference between what is truly free and what is perceived as free. And as businesses, we must be cautious about what we promise. Let’s use free shipping as an example.

The corporate budget is a funny thing. Getting approval on a budget in the corporate world doesn’t mean you get to spend it. Quite the contrary. You often have to get the budget approved for what you might spend and then when you want to spend it, you get approval again.
