However, these incentives could be doing a lot more than that, which can have beautiful or terrible effects on your customer-driven growth. Ph.D. student Alicea “Allie” Lieberman from the University of California, San Diego, was a guest on our podcast recently to discuss incentives.

At a time when many business owners are removed from face-to-face interaction with their clients — hospitality, food, retail etc. — it’s becoming more and more important for companies to engage with their customers.

You can’t stop thinking about the future—that’s where the real value lies. The rise of the customer-centered economy has created an urgency among enterprises to keep customers happy at all costs.

Loss Aversion teaches us that people like to gain things, but that they like hanging on to what they have even more and feel losses much more profoundly than gains. So, you would think that effective policy to reduce disposable bag usage by charging a surcharge for a grocery bag would tap into these feelings. Not so fast. New research reveals that Loss Aversion is not the reason for the grocery bag surcharge’s success.

Especially in an era of remote work, it can be difficult to manage the morale of your customer support team. After all, a support agent isn’t a career choice for professionals who are afraid to talk to people. Support teams in the B2B (business-to-business) industry are often full of social personalities and employees who choose to work in an office environment where they can collaborate with colleagues to solve problems.

Question: How should agents handle calls when customers are sharing their fears and concerns about the Coronavirus pandemic – or other personal issues, for that matter? Answer: Although the current COVID-19 pandemic is different from anything we’ve experienced and worked through to date, fundamental contact handling communication or “soft” skills that have been around for years can still help guide interactions between customers and agents during these trying times.

Use Partnering Language to Create Calm and De-escalate Intense Interactions (Especially now, when customers are panicked). When a customer reaches out to you about a problem, they usually don’t think things will be easy. They expect to have to push for what they want. To customers, it’s them against you. Visually, it’s like this. There’s a brick wall between you and your customer.

Customers expect to be able to interact with your organization whenever and however they want. They also expect your agents to have insights into their journeys so that they don’t have to repeat themselves as they move through various channels. And, if they’re not able to, they just might find one of your competitors who will offer the flexibility they are looking for.

We need to better understand shoppers. Why? Because retail is in crisis. Investment in bricks and mortar stores has declined 30% in the US and a staggering 50% in Europe. In the UK 50,000 of the 500,000 high street stores are empty , that’s a whopping 10%. But that level can even be higher, double or triple that in some parts of the country. The government in the UK just upped its rescue fund to a billion pounds and slashed its rates in the hope of lowering rents.
