We do a lot of waiting in our lives. We wait to get on a plane, for our drink at a coffee shop, and on the phone to talk to “the next available representative.” Sometimes we don’t mind waiting at all; sometimes we mind very much. Your customers likely wait in your experience, too, and that may or may not be creating negative feelings about your experience.

The title of this week’s post might surprise you. After all, the hospitality industry should be highly customer centric, as it relies on satisfying its guests. However, it can learn a lot from consumer packaged goods (FMCG/CPG), as I shared with industry experts at a Faculty Day of one of the leading hospitality schools in Switzerland. Having spent most of my career in consumer goods, I was invited to share what the hospitality industry could learn from the industry.

When marketing to new people, it can be hard just to make that first impression by telling them who you are, what your success story is, and what your product or service is about. However, in the digital world, emails act as the frontmen of bringing in new clients and or who might be interested in what you have to sell. What you have to say in an email (what you will type up anyway) will definitely speak volumes about you and your company, because many people don’t want to be bothered with spam

Back in the day, there were fewer ways that hackers could use personal data against people. Therefore, data privacy was not as big of a concern as it is today. Nowadays, people want to know what businesses do with their data. This is a method to ensure that both big and small companies won’t sell customer data or have it misused. As a result, data privacy has become a huge concern.

Surveys are a great way to listen to the voice of the customer, so don’t misconstrue the title of this article as being “anti-survey.” Problems occur, however, when surveys become the only way we listen to customers — especially when you consider that a good survey response rate is in the realm of 20-30%. That means you never hear from 70-80% of customers.

What is a target audience? Definition: A target audience is defined as a group of people having common interests, demographics, and behavior. Market researchers need to collect feedback from the consumers of certain products and services. Collecting feedback from random people who aren’t your customers, or from those with no interest or knowledge about the subject of research will not help you solve problems.

I’m talking about how the butchers and bakers used to run their businesses years ago. I remember as a kid going to the store with my Mom. The baker always had a cookie for the little ones and the butcher was happy to hand out some fresh sliced ham or turkey.

Customer service is a 2 way street. It takes both sides of the interaction doing their part to provide a great customer experience. The “give and take of life” doesn’t stop at the service counter – it continues, always. But sometimes, as customers, we fail to do our part and fail to understand what steps we must take to make this interaction successful.

I’ve written previously addressing questions about compliance and how many companies differ on how they classify themselves in regards to being sellers of data. Even major tech companies interpret the law differently. But one thing is not in question: The fact that while present issues surrounding the law are still being sorted out, the future of CCPA is already being discussed.
