We live in an age where customer feedback has never been so crucial to the success of a business. The Amazons, Tescos and John Lewis’ of this world have thrived precisely because they listen to what their customers want – either through direct feedback, or the data.

The old mantra of customer experience professionals is to “Ensure that customers achieve their desired outcomes while using our products and services.” However, this is very limiting and leaves a lot of goodwill (and profit) on the table. This is why the CX definition needs to be expanded to: “Ensure that our customers achieve their desired outcomes, starting when they become aware of us, and extending through the buying, delivery and usage process.

Gathering customer feedback is a mainstay in business. However, most companies have recognized that closed-ended surveys aren’t enough to gain powerful insights into the customer experience (CX). Instead, a voice of the customer (VoC) program is a necessity for any company that wants to understand and act on customer sentiment.
