As a customer centricity champion, just like you, I spend a lot of my time researching the topic. I’m always trying to understand exactly what customers want. My regular searches include customer service, customer satisfaction, customer care and similar areas. Google is my best friend!

Recently, a large auto OEM uncovered data strongly suggesting that their competitors were outselling them with women. Of course, the first move of any auto OEM is to make changes in their advertising and marketing. But what about the disconnect occuring at the auto retail level…the CX level? That’s a real challenge, because OEMs have.

The truth – something most humans would HOPE they are surrounded by, yet in reality are rarely exposed to. From politicians; to acquaintances (and sometimes friends); to family – the majority of people in the world will regularly be either the deliverer or receiver of a white lie. Whilst it is difficult to deny that politicians are perhaps the most frequent exponents of the ‘mistruth’ , there are others who are possibly even more prolific at ‘pulling the wool’

Big Data is back on the corporate agenda. I say ‘back’, it never went away for the CIO, it’s just moving with the times, bumped along by changes in operating systems, user technologies and digital transformation. In 2013 IBM reported over 2.5 exabytes of data were created every day; by 2014 this was 2.3 zettabytes.

It’s hazardous to think of customers in the plural, as if they’re really a homogenous group that exists in the aggregate and can be thought of and served as a whole. The better way to think of customers is as follows: There’s just one customer, the one you’re facing right now. There’s only Jim. One Margo. One Alecia. Let your competitors keep thinking of customers as an abstraction.

Unbeknownst to many, Domino’s is an amazingly forward looking company. While other brands like Polaroid or Blockbuster have run into a bit of a complacency trap (thinking that what brought them success would also assure them sustainability), Domino’s restlessly agitates their industry by rethinking their product and their delivery platform.

Companies that have voice of the customer (VoC) programs (including NPS) often put in place a closed-loop process.

Never take your existing employees for granted This original article was written by Steve DiGioia. The schoolyard created natural leaders. They were the ones that chose the teams. They were the first ones at bat, their friends sided with their opinions and they led the way with their rebellious streak. You can spot them a mile away. In business it’s not always that easy to find a leader.

One concept I get asked about a lot is customer retention strategy. It’s obviously important. Business tends to grow as a result of two factors: Your customer acquisition strategy. Your customer retention strategy. If you’re not acquiring and then retaining customers constantly, your business probably doesn’t have many years left. Now, a lot of businesses focus much of their effort on the customer acquisition side.
