The Customer's Need for Speed Featuring Jay Baer

In Customer Experience, Speed Equals Caring Shep Hyken interviews Jay Baer, customer experience and marketing expert. He shares his findings from his new study, The Time to Win, and insights on how speed impacts customer experience and revenue.  Top Takeaways:    ·      Time is the only inelastic resource. Time is the only thing everyone shares equally, regardless of who they are. We all have 1440 minutes a day, and there's nothing we can do to get more.   ·      If you are slower than your customers expect and anticipate, they will feel like you are stealing time from them. And if you are faster than your customers expect and anticipate, they feel like you have given them the gift of time.   ·      The concept of “The Right Now” means the optimal amount of elapsed time in every customer interaction throughout the entire journey. "The Right Now" is slightly faster than customers expect.   ·      Jay Baer shares some important customer experience findings from his research, The Time to Win:   o  There is a correlation between responsiveness and revenue. Two-thirds of customers say that speed is as important as the price. Customers are willing to pay more if it's faster.   o  Customers would pay up to 50% more if they never had to wait. For example, customers pay more for Disney’s Fast Pass/ Lightning Lane to skip the line at Disneyland.   o  53% of American consumers have chosen a business that responded to them first, even if they were not the least expensive.   o  Gen Z is the most patient generation. Baby Boomers are the least patient generation.   ·      Plus, Jay shares strategies to create better speed for our customers. Tune in!
