A great onboarding experience is one that proves to new users that your product will help them do the job that they want. To put it another way, the ideal onboarding experience is a short, easy and frictionless path to finding value. Of course, many products have unavoidable complexity. If getting started with your product requires new users to install software, invite colleagues or message customers, then the path to value may not seem as short or straightforward.

When I created Beyond Philosophy, I chose the name for a reason. I believe it is crucial to do more than discuss your theories about Customer Experience strategy. Sure, you need to think about it, understand the philosophy behind it as well as the science, but after that, you should go beyond the philosophy and do something. In other words, theories are fascinating but falderal unless you implement them in your Customer Experience.

Automated customer service isn’t a new concept. We’ve all navigated our fair share of automated phone menus or interacted with support bots to get help. But much has changed, both in usability and customer perception. Voice recognition technology has improved, AI solutions can interpret customer feedback, and chatbots have started to answer the questions they receive, not just pass them off to a human.

Many of us in the design and technology community pride ourselves on being tool builders, creating products that others can use to get things done. But perhaps we don’t stop to consider the fundamental nature of our relationship with tools – we’re aware that they extend our abilities, but can also be blind to the way they shape how we use our abilities.

Imagine you are selling a used car. Now, imagine your surprise that the person who wants to buy it is your brother. How would that be different from selling your vehicle to a stranger? Would you haggle as hard? (Now, to be fair, if it was my brother Neil, my answer is yes.). People act differently in various types of relationships and transactions. This distinction between these two types of situations is something that psychologists have studied, and the subject of our recent podcast.

“I'm sorry, but I do not recognize that response.”.

The answer for most of us? Too many. Gartner predicts that by 2020 a customer will manage 85% of the relationship with an enterprise without interacting with a human, so how do you think your customers feel when they are misunderstood by your company's automated vo

The first step to providing strong customer service is taken by ensuring that all employees within your company have an extensive knowledge of the inner and outer workings of your product or service. If the customer suspects that the person they’re talking too isn’t well-informed on their issue, they’ll quickly begin to lose trust in your company, which is something you want to avoid at all costs.

If an organization’s founders aren’t designers and don’t come from a background where well-designed products played a key role in their lives, it can often be the last discipline to be brought onboard the team.
