What is the Peak-End Rule? Barbara Frederickson and Danie Kahneman conducted a research based study in 1993 that proved that the human memory is, in fact, imperfect. They discovered that humans don’t actually recall events in their entirety, but rather the snapshots of the most intense moments become a memory.

Bigfoot. The elusive missing link between humans and apes. But what does he have to do with customer service? Well, plenty. There are many similarities between the creature and the service many of us dish-out to our customers. That’s why I call it, Bigfoot customer service. Let’s get into it. Rumors.

Self-service and customer relations: provide autonomy to your customers. According to a Zendesk study, the main reasons for customer dissatisfaction are the multiplication of online contributors (57%) and a resolution time that is too long for 46% of respondents. A customer who fails to find an immediate solution to his problem will put an end to his journey and can even end up doing business with your competitors.

The focus on customer experience isn’t going anywhere. In fact, we’d argue that superb customer experience is no longer just a “nice to have”; it’s a necessity for any business that wants to flourish in the coming years. . Twenty years ago, companies got measured against their competitors. If you sold financial software, your product would get compared to your competitors’ products and that was the end of it.
