Designing Impactful Customer and Community Engagement Shep Hyken interviews John Durocher, Chief Customer Officer at Calix. He talks about creating a seamless customer experience by utilizing customer feedback, ensuring proactive communication, integrating teams, and leveraging community connections. This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more: How can companies integrate their sales and support teams to enhance customer interactions? How can small businesses enhance customer support after a sale? What are the benefits of a customer advisory board? Why is it important for companies to proactively communicate when there are problems, service outages, or maintenance periods? How can businesses create an emotional connection with their customers through community involvement? Top Takeaways: Companies can improve their service and product offerings by listening to customers. Engaging customers through surveys and advisory boards (made up of customers) allows companies to understand their customers' needs and generate new ideas. Customer surveys should be a two-way communication. Customers spend time answering customer feedback. So, companies should respond to the feedback by showing appreciation for their customers' input and making them feel heard by letting them know what actions are taken. Customer experience doesn't stop after a sale. It encompasses every interaction the customer has with the company. Each touchpoint should be designed to delight the customer, from when a product is purchased to when they receive any follow-up service or support. Communication and collaboration between teams ensure that there are no gaps in service delivery. When a customer interacts with one team, they expect the entire company to be aware of their history and needs. They do not want to repeat themselves. Effective communication ensures a consistent and convenient customer journey. Proactive communication alleviates customer frustration. When there is a problem, businesses must proactively notify their customers using all appropriate channels, including text, emails, and social media, that their customers are using. This keeps customers informed about what's happening, how long a problem might last, and reassures them that it is being addressed. Businesses that engage with the communities they serve often stand out. Customers like doing business with companies who value the same things as them. Plus, John shares examples of how local broadband providers have gone above and beyond for their community during crucial moments. These are lessons for any type of business. Tune in! Quote: "It's important not to have gaps in the customer experience. You have to work and communicate as one team. Customers expect that what they have heard from the sales team will be consistent throughout your organization." About: John Durocher is the Chief Customer Officer at Calix. He is widely acknowledged as an expert in customer relationship management (CRM) and has contributed numerous articles and papers to industry and academic publications.

En nuestra serie de episodios sobre las elecciones primarias del Partido Liberal en Honduras, el Impunity Observer entrevistó al precandidato: Jorge Cálix. El candidato más joven de la contienda, se ubica segundo en las encuestas dentro del Partido Liberal. Cálix comenta sobre los graves desafíos que enfrenta Honduras. En particular, la pobreza afecta a más de la mitad de la población. También menciona la elevada criminalidad, lo cual ahuyenta las oportunidades económicas y a las personas, exacerbando la crisis migratoria. Cálix advierte: “si la actual situación persiste, ningún muro detendrá la emigración”. Diputado desde 2014, primero como suplente (2014–2018) y luego como principal (2018–actualidad), Calix ha presenciado decisiones políticas efectivas y deficientes.

Sin profundizar, Cálix menciona sus propuestas en asuntos económicos clave, incluyendo la creación de empleo, atracción de inversiones y mejorar la seguridad.

The 24 year old content creator allegedly directed a video called Destroying a Lamborghini with Fireworks, in which two individuals in a helicopter shot fireworks at a speeding Lamborghini in the El Mirage.

Troy faces a maximum of 10 years in federal prison if convicted of causing the displacement of an explosive or incendiary device on an aircraft. Now, Rosemary, I assume you have seen this, being the YouTube star that you are. You have seen this video of them shooting off Roman candles from this helicopter? Rosemary Barnes: It hasn't come up in my suggested videos, no. Allen Hall: I've seen it like 12 times. Joel Saxum: Yeah, I've seen it and it's awesome. I feel bad for these guys. They created a cool video. But if you go by the letter of the law, there's a lot of things illegal about this. It's like the same concept of if you shoot a drone down with a firearm, you can get the same exact penalty as if you shot down a plane with people in it. Because they're both aircraft that are covered under law by the FAA. So the FAA has got some pretty stinch stringent laws, and if you don't tow the line, you can get in a lot of trouble, as evidenced by This awesome video of shooting fireworks from a fire, from a helicopter at a Lamborghini in the desert.

I think that's the whole point of this is don't do stupid stuff around airplanes. They're not toys, boys and girls. They are definitely not toys. And the Wild West is over. Maybe you can do that in Australia, but you sure can't do that in the United States anymore. Welcome to the Uptime Wind Energy Podcast. I'm Allen Hall, and here's this week's headlines.

In this episode of The 5G Factor, our series that focuses on all things 5G, the IoT, and the ecosystem as a whole, I'm joined by my colleague and fellow analyst, Todd Weiss, for a look at the top 5G developments and what's going on that caught our eye. Our conversation focused on: Nokia Driving Key PON-related 5G/Small Cell Innovations. The recent Fiber Connect 2023 event fully showed why fiber optics plays an essential role in 5G network builds and capabilities. Nokia, for instance, demonstrated its Build America, Buy America (BABA) compliance, 25G PON starter kit aimed at 10Gbp+ service opportunities, its Corteca home connectivity software aimed at monetizing and improving broadband experiences such as hybrid workforce environments, expanded its Network-in-a-box program, and strengthened its manufacturing presence in the US through deals with Sanmina in Wisconsin and Fabrinet in California. We discuss why these moves impact the 5G ecosystem, including Nokia's 100G PON collaboration with Vodafone. Ciena's 5G xHaul Portfolio Syncs up With Key Operator Priorities. In 5G systems, accuracy in frequency, phase, and time synchronization is integral for optimizing RAN performance. We see operators are prioritizing using network timing distribution across their transport infrastructure to complement local Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) at cell sites, providing a more resilient and flexible RAN architecture. Plus, we assess why streamlined visualization and management of timing and synchronization capabilities as well as transport versatility that supports network slicing are key to advancing xHaul innovation and broader adoption, and Calix's ecosystem role in delivering such capabilities. Calix Mobile Backhaul Portfolio Ready for Prime Time 5G Demands. Given that hundreds or even thousands of smartphones depend on the connection to their base station, we see that mobile operators hold their backhaul providers to the highest levels of performance in the industry. As a result, mobile operators want real-time visibility of circuit performance, increasingly demand bandwidth on demand flexibility, and fail-safe circuits. We delve into why Calix's portfolio, such as the Calix AXOS E5 Ethernet Service Access Nodes, deliver the Carrier Ethernet 10G and 1G UNI service demarcation and Ethernet aggregation capabilities key to assuring operators can provide premium business and mobile backhaul services with operational efficiency and service assurance.

I've been feeling a little disinterested in magic lately. Part of it is release fatigue, but more so I think it's boredom with my decks. Currently I have a deck for each archetype that I'm into and every new commander I'm interested in falls into the same archetypes of my current decks. Problems Card overlap Similarity of play I feel like the influx of new commanders as the format has become more popular has lead to less unique commanders and more that fall into established archetypes I also feel like this my problem and not one caused by anything else.
