Big data is the gigantic data sets whose analysis could reveal predictions of human behavior. Big data is big news. If we can predict what people will do in a given situation, we can create situations that get them to do what we want. But Big data is only showing us a part of the big picture. The biggest part, WHY people do what they do is, as of yet, missing from Big Data.

If you had the choice of doing something the easy way or the hard way, and you didn’t have to do anything morally, ethically, or legally wrong to do it the easy way, which would you choose? My guess is the majority of you would say take the easy way. I certainly would. When it comes to brands and their related experience, it’s critical that you KISS it.

If your business sells goods or services online, then you know that nothing beats having a new customer visit your website and then make a purchase. But, the sale is just the beginning of the journey with your new customer. Once the customer makes a purchase, you must ensure that he/she is satisfied with it. Many people confuse satisfied customers with loyal customers, and while they do share similar traits there are a few differences.

I find it beyond belief how large organizations can cheat and lie to their Customers. Maybe it’s because I’m becoming old or maybe it’s just because it is happening more. Skechers lied to us that if we wore their (weird-looking) Shape-up shoes that we could get in shape without setting foot in a gym. BP lied about their compliance with safety regulations for their off shore Oil operations; a lie that resulted in 70 million gallons of oil spilled into the Gulf of Mexico.

Happy CX Day! On this important day, I want to discuss an important topic: strategy. In a recent post , I lamented how many companies today focus on business strategy first and customer experience strategy second.

We’ve all been there: a customer wants you to ship a product in a color that you’ve never even heard of before, or demands a refund for a subscription they’ve been enjoying for seven months already. While you want to help them to the best of your ability, you also know that fulfilling their demands could run your business into the ground. It’s a difficult situation, because common wisdom dictates that, “the customer is always right.”.

There are a lot of elements that must come together brilliantly for an experience to be perfect. One essential element often neglected, but essential is the training of your Customer-facing teams. In my view, there is a great lack of training on soft skills with Customers and when there is training available it is too basic and not frequent enough. There are, however, three major things your training must address to be successful.

As it turns out, if Aesop had the research to work from, his ant would probably be just as lazy at his grasshopper.
