When you're a high-level executive, it doesn't take much to lose track of what's going on at the lower levels of a business. In fact, it takes a special kind of executive to take lower level complaints seriously. It could be the key to a better business.

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.

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.

Customer feedback is the best source we have for collecting the consumer insights we need to improve our businesses. Asking for feedback, analyzing it and implementing product/service fixes where necessary can make all the difference for building brand loyalty and achieving success.

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.

We’re all well aware of gaining insight into the Voice of the Customer (VoC) to improve the customer experience. Increasingly over the last few years, we’re also starting to hear more and more about the Voice of the Employee (VoE) and employee engagement. But a lot of people fail to mention that VoE and VoC have a lot in common, and that a focus on one at the expense of the other, can hinder attempts to improve the customer experience.

Website feedback tools and the VoC data we collect using these tools has become the backbone of the customer experience. These tools yield businesses with a more simplified way of opening up a dialogue with their online visitors as well as gain a deeper understanding into how they experience the website, mobile app or in a more general sense, the brand itself. With a surplus of these tools on the market, it can be rather challenging to select the right tool for your business. So don’t be hasty – take your time and evaluate your options…let’s start off with one of the more seasoned tools, Feedbackify.
