In 1898, American sales pioneer E. St. Elmo Lewis created the AIDA model to describe how customers buy. The AIDA model described four cognitive phases that buyers follow when accepting a new idea or purchasing a new product: A problem comes to the customer’s attention. This creates interest in the benefits of a product or service. The customer decides to buy the product.

There are many ways to listen. People listen with their eyes, and with their hands (remember the movie: A Quiet Place ). Listening is a central process in the way people survive. If you are not actively listening, critical information is missed. In many cases, the actual words selected do very little to communicate the speaker's intended message. We must reach below the surface to capture the truth.

In a company’s early days as a lean, mean, business machine, it’s fairly easy for leadership to stay in sync with their users. You might say it’s one of the strongest advantages a startup has. But as the business becomes more successful – and there are resources to build a support team – additional layers begin to separate executives from their customers.

Support teams are arguably the most important part of the customer experience. Agents become the voice of the company when they interact with customers. These experiences can lead to repeat sales or a loss of a customer depending on that single interaction. As a company grows, introducing new features, products, and services, they can find themselves facing an increasing number of support requests.

Text or talk? Voice conversations are still critical, but data shows that the former is becoming a bigger part of customer service interactions. This trend is driven partly by consumer preferences and partly by companies striving to lower costs.
