Although I love quotes, especially about how to succeed, I love success even more. Do you? One of my favourite quotes on the topic of success comes from Winston Churchill during his address to the Harrow School (UK) during WWII in 1941. It was one of his shortest speeches but probably one of his most quoted. He said: “Never give in, never, never, never, never” If you are interested, you can read his full speech – which is not a lot longer!

Customer retention lies at the heart of everything from customer experience (CX) strategies to contact center tactics. Additionally, retaining and recovering existing customers is far more cost-effective for a brand than focusing solely on acquiring new business. Faced with these and other reasons, most brands see the importance of customer recovery and work hard to turn negative experiences into positive ones.

The other day I heard some people complaining about poor customer service. Each shared their complaints about a past shopping trip that irked them enough to commit the story to memory (those are the worst kinds). One person complained that the store’s workers spent too much time talking to each other and seemed to not care that she was waiting in line.

Even though change password functionality has been around since the dawn of the Web and is a cornerstone of account security, I was shocked at just how many sites made it difficult for me to accomplish this important and seemingly simple task.

They should want to make you happy. Just a couple days later I saw this idea in action, but with a twist.

Similar to cars, call center software packages range from low-cost, low-feature options to platforms with a lot of bells and whistles and a high price tag to match. But, unlike fancy cars, which are often vanity purchases, software decisions are normally driven by requirements and budget.
