  • AICEX: una interessante panoramica che può dare diversi spunti. Aggiungiamo due KPI:
  • 33th: https://www.forrester.com/CX-Index/-/E-MPL191

There’s a lot to measure in the customer experience.  There’s also many ways to collect the measurements.
While the “right” methods and metrics you select depend on the industry and study goals, this list covers most of the online and offline customer experience.
It includes a cross section of the four types of analytics data to collect, with an emphasis on collecting customer attitudes via surveys.

Attitudes & Affect

Customer Satisfaction: Survey your customers at key touchpoints using a simple Likert scale. Ask overall customer satisfaction (usually about the brand) and lower level satisfaction (usually specific to the touchpoint) such as the purchase or service experience. Include key attributes; for example, quality, speed, cost, and functionality.

Brand attitude: Measure affinity, association, and recall in a branding survey.

Loyalty: Use a repurchase matrix to measure the likelihood to repurchase and Net Promoter Score for likelihood to recommend.

Brand lift: Measure attitudes before and after participants are exposed to a stimulus.

Customer Attributes

Customer lifetime value: Not all customers are created equal (in terms of profitability at least!). Measure the revenue, frequency, and duration of purchases by customer and subtract the acquisition and maintenance cost by customer.

Who your customers are: Conduct a True Intent or Voice of Customer Survey (VoC) study by recruiting directly off your websites or emailing current customers and use a segmentation analysis.

Customer expectations: Ask expectations qualitatively in a usability study or quantitatively in a survey. Consider having an independent group rate expectations and another group rate the experience. Customers want to be consistent and will be affected by the memory of their expectation ratings; with two independent groups, you know you’re getting more accurate results.

The things customers do the most: Run a top tasks analysis by having a qualified sample pick their top five features in any website or application. This works really well and is easy to conduct.

What delights customers: Consider the Kano Method by asking customers how they’d feel if a feature was included and how they’d feel if it wasn’t included.

La Customer Experience è più importante nel B2B che nel B2C ?

su da Gian Carlo Mocciin Customer ExperienceLascia un commento

AICEX: Post con uno spunto interessante.

In today’s business environment, we all know customer experience is important, and we’ve all heard about social media’s impact as the new “word of mouth”. Stats often point to each person telling at least 7 (sometimes as high as 20) other people about their experience with a brand. That’s scary enough, but now consider that if your customers are other businesses, they inherently have multiple people working there and using your system. So not only can each individual user (or contact) spread the word via social media, they are going to talk to each other.

Whether that conversation is a negative or positive one is up to you.

It’s human nature – if we have a good experience, we want to share it with our peers. If we love a company, we become an ambassador for their brand. And if we have a bad experience, we want to tell EVERYONE. Your business customers will talk about their experiences in the break room, around the water cooler, even in company meetings.

Come funzionano NPS, CES e le metriche di CX?

su da Gian Carlo Mocciin Customer Experience, Marketing, Loyalty, ROI, NPS, VOC, KPIsLascia un commento

AICEX: Per misurare l’esperienza in maniera adeguata devi affidarti a più metriche.

There’s been a recent uptick in people asking me about Customer Effort Score (CES), so I thought I’d share my thoughts in this post.

As I’ve written in the past, no metric is the ultimate question (not even Net Promoter Score). So CES isn’t a panacea. Even the Temkin Experience Ratings isn’t the answer to your customer experience (CX) prayers.

The choice of a metric isn’t the cornerstone to great CX. Instead, how companies use this type of information is what separates CX leaders from their underperforming peers. In our report, the State of CX Metrics, we identify four characteristics that make CX metrics efforts successful:  Consistent,Impactful, Integrated, and Continuous. When we used these elements to evaluate 200 large companies, only 12% had strong CX metrics programs.

Should we use CES and how does it relate to NPS? I hear this type of question all the time. Let me start my answer by examining the four types of things that CX metrics measure: interactions, perceptions, attitudes, and behaviors.

CES is a perception measure while NPS is an attitudinal measure. In general, perception measurements are better for evaluating individual interactions. So CES might be better suited for a transactional survey while NPS may be better suited for a relationship survey. You can read a lot that I’ve written about NPS on our NPS resource page.

Now, on to CES. I like the concept, but not the execution. As part of our Temkin Experience Ratings, we examine all three aspects of experience—functional, accessible, and emotional. The accessible element examines how easy a company is to work with. I highly encourage companies to dedicate significant resources to becoming easier to work with and removing obstacles that make customers struggle.

But CES uses an oddly worded question: How much effort did you personally have to put forth to handle your request? (Note: In newer versions of the methodology, they have improved the language and scaling of the question). This version of the question goes against a couple of my criteria for good survey design:

  • It doesn’t sound human. Can you imagine a real person asking that question? One key to good survey design is that questions should sound natural.
  • It can be interpreted in multiple ways. If a customer tries to do something online, but can’t, did they put forth a lot of effort? How much effort does it take to move a mouse and push some keys?!? Another key to good survey design is to have questions that can only be interpreted in one way.

If you like the notion of CES (measuring how easy or hard something is to do), then I suggest that you ask a more straight forward question? How about: How easy did you find it to <FILL IN THING>? And let customers pick a response on a scale between “very easy” and “very difficult.”

My last thought is not about CES, but more about where the world of metrics is heading. In the future, organizations will collect data from interactions and correlate them with future behaviors (like loyalty), using predictive analytics to bypass all of these intermediary metrics. Don’t throw away all of your metrics today, but consider this direction in your long-term plans.

The bottom line: There is no such thing as a perfect metric.

ROI e CX: di cosa stiamo parlando ?

NOTA AICEX: che la CX influenzi il ROI ce lo siamo detti in tutte le salse. Ma di quale CX stiamo parlando?

By Michelle Reeb, The Marketer Network

Marketing enables success by generating revenue through impactful customer experiences.

Businesses thrive when they build solid relationships with their clients, which keeps them coming back for more. When companies create meaningful experiences, those customers begin to “love” and “be proud of” the brands they purchase and become loyal to them. Think for a moment about the brands that you are loyal to. Do those brands conjure up strong emotional feelings because of the way they make you feel? I can think of a product that I “love” because it ties me to my family. It’s a brand my mother uses and my grandmother before her. I have absolutely no intention of switching brands, because of the emotional familial connection.
