Customer Service in the Feedback Economy Featuring Colson Hillier

Top Takeaways: ·        Companies spend billions of dollars building their brands, retail stores, and products. But, when it comes down to the moment that's most impactful for a customer, it usually comes down to their interaction with a customer service agent. ·        The feedback economy shifts the service model on its head. There is less focus on broadcasting why your company is great. The focus is on listening to the customer, understanding their pain points, and creating more systemic changes to address them. ·        There are thousands of avenues for empowered consumers to make their voices heard. You need the right tools to harness all this feedback and take action. ·        Social channels don't discriminate. Companies have to learn to change their processes, technologies, and products to be responsive. The customers need to be the center of a company's strategy. ·        Technology is only a piece of what it takes to get the customer service equation right. You need the right judgment and empathy to take action and help your customers. ·        Customer service happens throughout the entire customer journey. The overall user experience is a function of an ecosystem of partners for delivery. Employees, and in some instances, companies need to collaborate to create a great customer experience ·        Policies should be rules or guidelines that empower employees to help the customer instead of hindering service.
