We all remember that dreaded phone call. After working all day, you'd pull out your chair to sit down for a family dinner and the phone would ring. You'd roll your eyes and walk over to pick it up. A stranger's voice would then ask if you had a few minutes to answer some questions about a recent experience you had with a company. Really? Right now? "Please call back later, I'm having dinner with my family." You'd hang up the phone and go back to the dinner table. "Now where were we?"

We live in a churning sea of feedback. Comment boxes appear on web pages like graffiti on a boxcar. Swirling around us are emoticons with thumbs-up signs, clapping hands, OK signs, happy faces, sad faces -- the list goes on. Many websites ask you to take a brief survey with a pop-up box that obscures most of what you are trying to read. It’s overwhelming. It’s everywhere, and it’s stifling.

If you run your own business I know you do your best to please your customers, satisfy their needs, and eventually to keep them loyal to your brand. But how can you be sure that your efforts bring desired results? If you do not try to find out what your clients actually think about your service, you will never be able to give them the best customer experience. Their opinions about experience they have with your brand is helpful information that you can use to adjust your business to fit their needs more accurately.

An angry customer is a business nightmare, right?
Wrong.
An angry customer is a business opportunity.
If you handle your complaints process right, you can transform an angry customer into a brand advocate and a high-value return customer. Marketing professors Michael McCullough and Sundar Bharadwaj talk about something they call the service recovery paradox, which they define as:
The result of a very positive service recovery, causing a level of customer satisfaction and/or customer loyalty even greater than that expected if no service failure had happened.
Your customers come to you to get their problems solved, and a customer with a complaint is handing you a golden opportunity to show how you excel at that.
Here’s how to make that happen.

“Your most unhappy customers are your greatest source of learning.” -- Bill Gates
Negative feedback from customers can be a hard pill to swallow. It often feels unjust, unhelpful and inaccurate. Even the most professional business owners can be defensive and emotional in the face of criticism. And while business owners may intellectually know negative customer feedback is critical to improving their business -- a 10-percent increase in Net Promoter Score (NPS) can correlate with a six to seven-percent increase in revenue -- the hard bit is constructively incorporating it.

Customers are changing far faster today than organizations are. Customers are setting the agenda. Their expectations are rising in direct proportion to their declining trust in and loyalty to organizations and brands.

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.

There are so many different ways to measure customer satisfaction — figuring out which one to send to your customers can become a nightmare.
Well, it’s always a good idea to go with something that is easy to implement and does not require much effort from respondents.
And that is why we’ve introduced Customer satisfaction(CSAT) surveys in Hiver.
It is the most straightforward way of measuring customer satisfaction with a business purchase or an interaction.
All you have to do it ask a simple question - something like: How satisfied were you with your experience?
