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.

These are the kind of people—and the kind of company—you want to do business with. First, a little background. I was having a conversation with a colleague and came up with the idea that you shouldn’t have to fight with a company to get your problem resolved or for them to make you happy. They should want to make you happy. Just a couple days later I saw this idea in action, but with a twist.

Many enterprises struggle to deliver excellent customer care and suffer from a range of operational inefficiencies due to a lack of inter-departmental communication and cross-functional collaboration. Their agents and technicians are effectively siloed. A rep may promise a customer next-day service but then field service cannot provide a technician.

If you're a call center looking for software, you have a lot of options to choose from. 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.
