The success of your company is directly proportional to how thoroughly your customers are satisfied with you. The satisfaction score of a customer is a critical determinant that portrays how far-fetched their loyalty will go on. While it is said that sales is the engine that is the driver of your business, customer satisfaction is the one that acts as fuel.

Little successes added together make for large success down the road. Small successes add up. To put it in baseball terms, you don’t need to hit a home run every time it’s your turn at bat. So, here’s the question to consider: What small change will enhance the experience for the customer, even if it is just by 1%? My friend and client, Jason Bradshaw of Volkswagen in Australia, was tasked with improving the customer experience for the VW dealerships.

There’s a new trend in customer service: the borders between technicians and agents are becoming blurred, with each one taking on aspects of the others’ traditional roles. Technicians normally found in the field are now stationed in a back office or working from home, guiding customers remotely as a traditional agent. Likewise, agents are now empowered to go above and beyond their standard scripts, using their newfound technical knowledge and skills to assist their customers.

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.

While my co-author Harley and I were prepping Outside In for publication back in the spring of 2012, I learned about the strange practice of soliciting “blurbs,” those pithy words of praise on a book’s back cover that tout the messages inside. There’s even a verb associated with this process — as in, “Would you consider blurbing our book?”. One of the people we reached out to with this request was a well-known author who I kind of idolized at the time.

If your goal is to lead strategically, consider the value of repeatedly seeking new jobs that keep you working in departmental silos. New job. New silo. Same old thing. Depending on your organization’s size, these silos can be big. Yet no matter how far you “travel” to collaborate cross-functionally, you never leave the silo you operate within.
