Analyzing your website can give you many insights into what your customers like or don’t like. But sometimes it’s not enough. Wouldn’t it be better if you could just ask them and get straight answers from them?

It's time for a reality check. Chatbots are killing customer service.
Obliterating it, maybe.
If you're a customer, you probably already know that. The computer programs that conduct clumsy conversations with you when you have a customer question are maddening. But if you work for a company, maybe you won't believe chatbots are killing customer service until you see the evidence.

In business, you set goals and encourage your team relentlessly to accomplish those goals. Turning a vision into reality takes discipline, passion and a motivated team. As a leader, you have an innate understanding of what customers want. You often make decisions based on your gut, which has served you well over the years and helped your ascent.

In the marketing world, businesses have moved from a pure B2C/B2B model to a P2P model (People to People). People buy from people, and customer experience should be no different.
The path to business success and growth is paved with quality customer experiences (CX). CX is arguably the #1 proven way to positively impact revenue, especially over the long-term. There are usually a number of touch-points in the buyers’ journey, and if a customer is not satisfied at each one, they can very easily go elsewhere. Competition is fierce, especially in a thriving global economy. Only companies that deliver consistently superior CX will create emotional connections that are strong enough to earn customer support. Once a buyer has chosen your company the challenge is to keep them as a customer and build a relationship, reducing churn and increasing life time value.

Customer service surveys allow you to take a peek into your customers’ minds. You can learn about their problems, needs and do something about them. It’s your very own customer service magic. But instead of a crystal ball, you need a few, well worded customer service survey questions.
Without some form of a survey for your customers, you are forced to guess and make estimates when it comes to your customers’ satisfaction. And going only by your gut when making business decisions is not the most reliable option.
Start making more informed business decisions by collecting customer feedback. See what customer service survey questions you should ask and how you should do it to get the best results.

For retailers, one of the most important aspects of their business is the level of customer service they offer to shoppers — and the busy season is no exception. In fact, many retailers often bring on additional team members during the busy holiday season to ensure that their customers receive the level of service they deserve. Self-service checkout kiosks, designed to allow customers to quickly scan, pay for, and bag their items can be used to complement these efforts. They can also enable some employees to take on more customer service-centric roles, further increasing the number of employees available to help throughout a store and improving the level of customer service shoppers receive.
