It takes a lot for a new customer to become a customer these days.
Very few customers discover a company, find a product they need, and decide to purchase all in the same day -- instead, they take many steps, over the course of days, weeks, or even months to make a purchase and start using a product.
The complex process of winning over customers requires strategy and commitment. That's why sales and marketing funnels and buyer's journeys were created -- to divide and conquer each little step that goes into converting a potential customer into a returning one.

It might seem like a good idea to use email to resolve customer issues or to simply solve customer issues wherever they find you. It’s simple. It’s cost-saving. But you know what else it is? Messy and risky. Messy, because your communications with customers are all over the place. There’s not a single, unified platform to manage your customers. Risky, because you can easily overlook customers’ messages from email. While it may be unintentional, you are more likely to neglect your customer issues and lose them, which isn’t exactly good for business. Enter customer service software.

In an era when disruptors like Uber, Netflix, and Amazon are reimagining markets and eroding the boundaries between markets, incumbents know they need to change. The problem most are confronting is how to begin, where, and how much?
One answer to this question is digitization. Our competitors are able to deliver greater levels of efficiency and effectiveness through digital technologies. So, in order to compete, we also need to be digitally adept.
But is technology the cause for disruption, or is it a mere catalyst? I will support the latter claim, that technology does not cause the incredible success of disruptors but only enables success. Keeping your customers happy is the more direct source of value.

Voice of the Customer (VoC) programmes are intended to capture the opinions and preferences of all customers, analyse those insights, and use them to create meaningful changes in customer experience (CX). Having a VoC programme in place has become increasingly more popular and essential, especially as more and more businesses (nearly 72% to be precise) continue to place CX as their top priority.

TechTarget defines personalisation as a “means of meeting the customer’s needs more effectively and efficiently, making interactions faster and easier, and consequently, increasing customer satisfaction and the likelihood of repeat visits”. Being able to provide a personalised experience, however, still proves to be a real challenge for many digital marketers. The good news is, there is room for these marketers to grow. Delivering a personalised experience requires a healthy combination of the right data and right technology. So how does digital feedback play into this?

In this White Paper, Mopinion outlines why in-app feedback is important as well as three different ways in which mobile product owners and marketers – with the intention of optimising the mobile experience – can collect in-app feedback. This paper will also look at how to analyse and take action on feedback and discuss what should be considered in terms of security standards (as they relate to the General Data Protection Regulation).

Customer experience in the travel industry has changed big-time over the last decade. Long gone are the days of traipsing into a travel agent to book a flight. Nowadays, there aren’t just websites to tell you what the cheapest deals are – you can even find out things like when’s the best time to book, making sure you always secure the lowest price.
While this all sounds like great news for jetsetters, it does mean travel brands have entered a race to the bottom in terms of price, leaving customers scratching their heads when it comes to working out which service is actually best. After all, short of operating at a loss, brands can’t afford to keep slashing their prices, they need to find other ways of standing out in a crowded market.
The most obvious way of doing this is by offering a customer experience that cruises 35,000 feet above the competition – and we don’t just mean lavishing on the free bubbly. As anybody whose luggage has ever ended up in Bangkok when they’re in Birmingham will tell you, travelling is loaded with opportunities for things to go wrong.
This goes to show, a great customer journey isn’t just about the added extras, it’s about the way brands handle problems – and for a one-way ticket to improving in this area, you need plenty of customer feedback.

According to a study carried out by RTE, over 30% of companies do not monitor what is being said about them online – whether it’s on their website, mobile app or social media profiles. And interestingly enough, much of this hesitancy is attributed to their fear of negative online feedback.

In today’s Internet-driven world, customers have more power than ever.
If customers have a positive customer experience, they will share this experience with friends, family and connections, which in turn can lead to new business. All at zero cost.
