What Customers Really Expect from Brands Featuring Kenji Hayward

Building Trust with AI in Customer Support  Shep interviews Kenji Hayward, Senior Director of Customer Support at Front. He talks about Front's The State of Service Expectations report and how customer expectations are evolving around AI, response times, loyalty, and what businesses can do to meet and exceed those expectations.  This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more:    What are the top expectations customers have from brands? What role does AI play in enhancing customer interactions and support?  How many bad experiences does it take before a customer stops doing business with a company?  Why is it important for companies to use their products?  Is there a difference between how businesses and customers perceive good response times?  Top Takeaways:    Be a customer of your own business. One of the best ways to understand and improve a product is by using it yourself. When team members, including managers and leaders, act as customers, they feel what real customers experience, both the good and the bad.    The State of Service Expectations by Front found that it only takes three bad experiences before 59% of customers decide to leave and find a different company to do business with. This leaves almost half of the customers who leave after 2 or even 1 negative experience from your brand. This means every interaction counts.  The very first interaction can set the tone for their whole experience. Many companies are now using AI to handle their first contact, so it must be friendly, fast, and accurate.  Transparency is essential in building trust. Companies using AI or chatbots should always be upfront with customers. People appreciate being told whether they are chatting with a human or a digital assistant, and that when the technology isn't working, there is an easy way to reach a real person.  Many customers (39%) like it when companies remember their preferences or past purchases and use that information to offer better service. However, some customers (57%) also worry about how much personal data is shared with AI or other technology. Finding the right balance between personalization and privacy is important so customers can feel comfortable and safe with how their information is being used.  Customers want an amazing experience, even if it costs extra. The State of Service Expectations found that 60% of customers would be willing to pay more for faster response times. Our customer service and experience research echoes this, where 59% of customers say customer service is more important than price.   AI has gotten much better, faster, and cheaper in the last few years. It's easy to get caught up in the latest technology or the fanciest software. But no matter how advanced your tech is, it won't matter if you don't have the foundations of good customer service, like empathy, transparency, speed, and convenience.  Plus, Shep and Kenji discuss how much customers are willing to wait for email, chat, or phone responses before they start to lose patience with your brand. Tune in!  Quote:   "Bad experiences can turn the customer off and make you lose their loyalty. In this day and age, where customers have many options on brands they want to work with, the role of customer support teams has become really amplified."    About:    Kenji Hayward is the Senior Director of Customer Support at Front. He is a customer experience and AI innovator. You can follow his newsletter on customer support and technology, Top Tier Support.  Shep Hyken is a customer service and experience expert, New York Times bestselling author, award-winning keynote speaker, and host of Amazing Business Radio.    Learn more about your ad choices.

Join thousands of other listeners on our Substack, The Foodletter!   In this insightful episode, Brooke sits down with the multi-hyphenate culinary voice J. Kenji López-Alt to discuss his unconventional journey from biology student to architecture major to professional cook—and ultimately, one of the most influential food writers of our time. Kenji opens up about the roots of The Food Lab, the success of The Wok, his love of food science, and how personal experiences shaped his approach to recipe development. From peeling 1,000 eggs in a data-driven experiment to publishing a children's book about expanding food preferences, Kenji's blend of curiosity, humor, and rigor shines throughout. He also shares his recent journey to sobriety, offering a powerful and honest reflection on what it means to live with intention.   Whether you're a professional cook, home chef, or food lover, this conversation will leave you inspired to explore, experiment, and cook with greater understanding.   Key Takeaways [01:22] Early Influences: Despite not growing up food-obsessed, Kenji's culinary passion emerged during college and blossomed through unexpected restaurant work. [07:26] The Food Lab Origin: A freelance $30 article on boiling eggs sparked the wildly successful Food Lab series and cookbook. [10:15] Finding His Voice: Inspired by Mr. Wizard and Jacques Pépin, Kenji combines education and entertainment to empower readers. [15:56] Testing with Integrity: Kenji conducted a 1,000-egg experiment with volunteer testers to scientifically identify the easiest method for peeling boiled eggs. [19:12] Behind the Cookbooks: The Food Lab began as a 300-page contract and grew into a 958-page tome—followed by The Wok, which evolved from a single missing chapter. [26:53] Favorite Recipes: From a chickpea-spinach stew to his mom's Mapo Tofu, Kenji highlights family-friendly, simple, and flexible favorites. [31:45] Every Night Is Pizza Night: His children's book was born from a desire to teach openness toward food and push back against “best recipe” culture. [41:00] On Sobriety: Kenji shares his deeply personal journey toward sobriety, how alcohol once shaped his decisions, and why he chose to speak publicly to help others.   Notable Quotes (9:52) “I wanted to write the kind of cookbook I wish I had when I was learning to cook.” (13:05) “We take food seriously, but not ourselves.” (33:00) “Pizza might be your favorite food, but is it the best food for every occasion?” (44:57) “Addiction thrives in isolation. Sobriety thrives in connection.”   Resources Check out Kenji's Patreon and YouTube channel Alcohol, we need to talk on YouTube The Food Lab: Better Home Cooking Through Science The Wok: Recipes and Techniques Every Night Is Pizza Night Connect with Kenji on Instagram Follow Female Foodie on Instagram

How are you? I hope you get lots of great photos!" It was his friend Kenji who called out to him.Ja: ケンジはハルトに対して、外の世界にもっと興味を持ってもらおうと、いつも勧めていました。En: Kenji always encouraged Haruto to take more interest in the outside world.Ja: 「うん、頑張ってみるよ。でもいい写真を撮るのは難しいね。」ハルトは少し不安を抱えつつも答えました。En: "Yeah, I'll do my best. But taking good photos is tough." Haruto replied, carrying a bit of anxiety.Ja: そんな時、彼の目に飛び込んできたのは、一心不乱にカメラを構えているアスカでした。En: Just then, what caught his eye was Asuka, who was intently focusing her camera.Ja: アスカは日本文化に強い関心を持つ旅行ブロガーで、この日は東京の桜祭りを紹介するために訪れていました。En: Asuka is a travel blogger with a strong interest in Japanese culture and had come to introduce the cherry blossom festival in Tokyo that day.Ja: 彼女の楽しげな様子に惹かれたハルトは、勇気を出して声をかけることにしました。En: Drawn to her cheerful demeanor, Haruto mustered up the courage to speak to her.Ja: 「こんにちは、いい写真が撮れましたか?」En: "Hello, have you gotten any good photos?"Ja: アスカは笑顔で振り向きました。「こんにちは!はい、この場所は本当に素晴らしいですね。En: Asuka turned with a smile. "Hello! Yes, this place is truly amazing.Ja: でも、もう少し静かな場所でゆっくり撮れたら、もっと良い写真が撮れるかもしれません。」En: But if I could take photos in a slightly quieter spot, I might be able to capture even better shots."Ja: アスカの提案で、二人は少し人の少ない公園の一角へと移動しました。En: Following Asuka's suggestion, the two moved to a less crowded corner of the park.Ja: そこには、桜の丘と都心を見下ろせる素晴らしい景色が広がっていました。En: There, a stunning view unfolded with cherry blossom hills and a vista overlooking the city center.Ja: アスカのガイドで新しい視点を得たハルトは、一生懸命シャッターを切りました。En: Gaining a new perspective with Asuka's guidance, Haruto earnestly clicked away on his shutter.Ja: 「ここ、本当に綺麗ですね。」ハルトは驚きの声を漏らしました。En: "This place is really beautiful," Haruto uttered in amazement.Ja: 「あなたの写真を見るのが楽しみです。」アスカは微笑みながら言いました。「もっと自信を持ってください。En: "I'm looking forward to seeing your photos." Asuka said with a smile, "Be more confident.Ja: あなたの写真には心があります。」En: Your photos have heart."Ja: 一日があっという間に過ぎ、ハルトは普段よりもずっと自信に満ちた気持ちで公園を後にしました。En: The day flew by, and Haruto left the park feeling much more confident than usual.Ja: アスカとの出会いは、彼に新しい友達だけでなく、新たなチャンスへの扉を開いてくれました。En: Meeting Asuka had opened doors to not just a new friendship, but new opportunities.Ja: その日から、ハルトは写真を通じて多くの人とつながりを持ち、自分自身にももっと自信を持つようになりました。En: From that day on, Haruto began to connect with many people through photography and became more confident in himself.Ja: そして、彼とアスカの友情は、これからも素敵な未来へと向かっていくことでしょう。En: And the friendship between him and Asuka would continue toward a wonderful future.

The alcohol, says J. Kenji Lopez-Alt, came about in young adulthood, when it solved persistent social anxiety and made him the life of the party. As Kenji found tremendous success in food writing and restaurateuring, he found that he couldn't really make it through the day without downing between two and five drinks. This wasn't hard to pull off in the food business, surrounded by booze and a culture that heartily encouraged its consumption. Kenji found that, as is so often the case with mental health, that the reality of the condition didn't match the drunken messy stereotype: his work wasn't harmed, he had strong relationships and a family. It's just that he was an addict. Finally, just a few months ago and in his mid-40's, he decided to get sober.This episode marks the kick-off of the 2025 Max Fun Drive!

Recorded in February 2025 The goal of the Hui Mo‘olelo program is to capture an authentic moment of connection through stories that are embedded in a Hawai‘i sense of place. As participants complete our immersive storytelling workshop, each identify a partner to engage in an audio-recorded talk-story that captures these connective moments. These recordings become the basis for annual requests for proposals to interpret as a work of public art in collaboration with community members. Proposals are selected by a community panel, followed by an intensive learning and cultural exchange that is rooted in specific places throughout Maui County. Representing a wide range of special places and stories, the collection is available for your research, enjoyment, memory or inspiration at https://www.mauipublicart.org/hui-moolelo.html.

It's Founder Friday! I am so thrilled to feature people who have become friends through getting to know them at coffee vents over the years. They have launched their own coffee house and made something as unique as they are themselves.  Nicolas and Krystal Tanaka are siblings and the proud owners of Kohiko Coffee House, located in Sugar Land, Texas. They've combined their unique backgrounds and extensive experience in the coffee and food & beverage industries to create a space that brings quality coffee and Japanese hospitality to the Houston community. Nic, the visionary behind Kohiko, shared his passion and vision for the coffee house after his first trip to Japan. He had already begun his journey as a barista in a specialty coffee shop in Sugar Land. He approached Krystal with the idea during her time pursuing her MBA, which led to them working together on an entrepreneurial project in her final semester. This is where they saw that their passions and strengths complemented each other. As Peruvian and Japanese Americans, they felt particularly connected to bringing something unique and special to Sugar Land. They honed in on the idea of bringing quality coffee with Japanese hospitality to Houston. After Nic became a two-time Coffee Fest World Latte Art Champion and Krystal graduated from her program, they chose to pursue this endeavor together. Their family has always inspired and motivated their journey. Their grandfather, Roy Tanaka, an entrepreneur who instilled Japanese values and compassion, played a key role in shaping their vision. Their youngest brother, Kenji, continues to inspire them as he makes a name for himself in the coffee world. They are grateful for their community who helped motivate and encourage them to turn their dream into a reality! Today we are exploring their story in 2 parts.  First we talk with them on their first day being open.  Next we catch up with Nic and Krystal after five months of operation.  These conversations presented back-to-back give us deep insight into the values, vision, plans, and life of the business from conception to full open and growing.  I love the whole Tanka family and after you listen to today's episode I think you will too! Enjoy!
