How Small Improvements Create Lasting Change in Customer Experience   Steven Van Belleghem, customer experience expert and author of A Diamond in the Rough: Over a 100 Specific Tips to Build a Strong Customer Culture. He talks about how embracing effective empathy, empowering employees to make meaningful decisions, and building emotional customer relationships can transform companies into customer-centric organizations.  Top Takeaways:    The key to transforming companies into customer-centric organizations lies in adopting a customer experience mindset. When leaders prioritize the customer experience, it influences the entire company culture.     Empowering employees to take positive actions that benefit customers can significantly impact team morale and reinforce the company's customer-centric goals. Leaders need to continuously communicate and appreciate the impact of customer-centric behaviors.    True customer loyalty extends beyond transactional interactions and loyalty programs. Building authentic, emotional customer relationships can lead to loyalty and increased revenue. For example, offering knowledge and content for free or demonstrating appreciation for customers at all stages of their journey creates loyalty and long-term relationships.    95% of your customers will be friendly, regular people. But 5% of your customers can be complete nightmares, and nothing you do will be good enough for them. Companies often lean towards focusing on the negative 5% of customer interactions, which can result in the creation of rules and procedures based on outliers. Don't punish your good customers for the sins of the few bad ones.    Embracing a philosophy of making small, incremental improvements can lead to significant overall change in the customer experience. When companies focus on constant improvement, even if it's just 1% at a time, it can create a wave of positive impact on customer satisfaction.    Empowering employees to make small decisions and take immediate action to address customer needs can improve customer experience and loyalty. Training employees to effectively handle customer issues without having to always ask for permission enhances their ability to make decisions that benefit customers. Encouraging and reinforcing customer-centric behavior and sharing success stories during team meetings can motivate and guide employees toward delivering outstanding customer service.    Plus, Shep and Steven discuss why some companies remain "diamonds in the rough" and never successfully cultivate a customer-centric culture. Tune in!  Quote:   "It all starts with leadership. The biggest barrier for companies to succeed in their goal of becoming customer-centric is when teams don't believe their leaders."  About:    Steven Van Belleghem is a customer experience thought leader and keynote speaker. He is the author of six bestselling books. His latest book, A Diamond in the Rough: Over 100 Specific Tips to Build a Strong Customer Culture, is available now!   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.

Elk bedrijf wil natuurlijk klantgericht zijn, maar weinigen slagen erin om de klant écht gelukkig te maken. De sleutel tot succes is het uitbouwen van een klantgerichte cultuur: een cultuur waar zowel de leiders als de medewerkers van een organisatie zich op elk moment bewust zijn van hun rol tegenover de klant. Dat zegt Steven Van Belleghem. Hij schreef er zelfs een boek over: ‘A diamond in the rough' met meer dan 100 tips om een klantgerichte cultuur te bouwen.  De inspiratie voor dit boek haalde hij in het Noorden van Griekenland, in Thessalië, waar kloosters, gebouwd op rotspilaren ‘als het ware zweven'  tussen de bergmassieven, die door erosie tot natuurlijke torens zijn uitgehouwen. De marketeer in hem was ontgoocheld in het absoluut gebrek aan klantgerichtheid in de souvenirwinkels, met uitzondering van een winkel waar geen enkele klant met lege handen naar buiten ging.

We're honored to welcome Shep Hyken as a guest on this episode of The Ecom Show. With over 39 years of industry experience and over eight bestselling books under his belt, Shep Hyken is a master at building a memorable customer experience, and today he's going to let us in on some of his bestselling secrets. Make sure to check out hyken.com to know more about him and get access to bonus research materials to enhance your knowledge of customer experience. This show is sponsored by Budai media , which is a fully remote eCommerce retention marketing agency. We, at Budai Media, have worked with over 100+ eCommerce clients and generated $30M+ additional store revenue in the last 3 years. In this episode, Shep Hyken and Daniel Budai, our podcast host and CEO, will talk about: ✔️ Shep's Journey With Customer Experience. ✔️ How To Win Your Customer's Confidence. ✔️ Finding Balance With Customer Automation. ✔️ 6 Steps To Master Customer Experience. Shep's Journey With Customer Experience Shep's story starts just like Harry Potter's, with a little bit of magic. Young Shep ventured into the world of business as a magician back when he was just 12 years old. He would book gigs performing magic for kids at birthday parties, and that's where he got his first lesson in customer service. His parents taught him all the basics like sending out thank you notes, following up for feedback and finding out areas of improvement, and basically just everything related to the art of talking to people. This art was finessed by a series of odd jobs that he'd picked up during his years in college. From nightclubs to corporate events, Shep had done it all. However, his true passion for building a career in the world of customer experience was fuelled by his time working in a gas station. "I was working in a gas station, and it was a very cold, cold day, and I pumped a woman's gasoline for her. And a very elderly woman, probably in her 80s, I didn't want her to get out of the car and get cold. And my manager actually yelled at me for helping her. I learned two things that day that has stuck with me ever since. Number one, people like me are all over the place; we want to take care of people. So when we're talking to our clients about customer service, and hiring people for the right experience in the right culture, just know that you need to find someone who likes taking care of people. The second thing I learned was that your experience of how to treat your customers comes from the people training you and the people in charge. But just because someone is in a high position doesn't mean they know how to treat customers right. You need to hire based on qualities that complement the role you're trying to fill." Shep started out working in customer service and soon started using the term customer experience to define his role because he was told that it's just a fancier term for customer service. But, he soon realized that customer experience goes far beyond customer service; it includes every touchpoint of a customer's journey that affects their perception of the brand. With over 39 years of experience, Shep is now a well-known keynote speaker and the bestselling author of several valuable books that talk about customer experience. How To Win Your Customer's Confidence In e-commerce solutions, you have to recognize that you won't always have the opportunity to interact and create a relationship with your customers. So, you need to find other ways to make that customer say, they are the ones I want to go back to again and again. Basically, find that one thing that drives your customer to keep returning. And that one thing is confidence! Creating confidence means the customer will refer to you with the word always followed by something ideally positive. You never want your customers to be confident about having a negative experience. Now, I'm confident when I do business with them; I will love what happens. That's what we're looking for. And this is what a confident customer would sound like:  “You know what, it's always there when I log on, it's always easy. They always have what I want. They always answer my questions; they always get back to me quickly.” The key to gaining your customers' confidence is very simple. Focus on how you can create positive experiences for them throughout their customer journey. As long as the customer recognizes that whenever they reach out or interact, they're always going to have a positive experience, they'll keep coming back. You can create this positive experience by leveraging automation tools, creating self-service resource libraries, having a quick response team in place, and providing a seamless customer journey from pre to post-sales. Finding Balance With Customer Automation Automation is a great tool that can enhance customer experience if implemented in the right manner. Having an omnichannel customer support system is the ideal way to provide an excellent customer experience. The trick is to have a seamless handoff between automation and human experience. For instance: If your customer asks a question that the chatbot isn't able to answer, your chatbot should be advanced enough to hand over the customer's query to a human executive to take over. So, automation is really just one part of it. You can create an automated experience by having a smart resource library, a chatbot and by implementing automated flows in place. However, you shouldn't depend on automation for everything. Tomorrow, if your customer needs to speak to a human, they should have a medium to connect with and receive help from one. All the best companies find a balance between AI-infused technology and humans to create a wholesome customer experience. Shep Hyken recently conducted an in-depth survey to find out the ideal way that customers like to resolve their complaints when they run into an issue. This 30-page report gives a detailed outlook on customer preferences; you can check out the entire report here. This report revealed that 65% of customers would prefer to resolve their problems over a phone call with a customer service agent; now keep in mind that the rest, 35% prefer having a digital self-service solution which is why it's important to have both in place. 6 Steps To Master Customer Experience Shep Hyken had come up with a six-step checklist for brands that are looking to audit and improve their customer experience. This checklist takes you from the entire customer journey to reflecting and learning from competitors and brands that you love and use as an individual. Let's take a look at the different steps. Act like there's a problem and call and see how hard it is to get your problem resolved: This helps you figure out how smooth your customer journey is and what your areas of improvement are. Ask yourself why somebody chooses to do business with a competitor instead of you: Don't try to find your positives to answer this question; instead, focus solely on what your competitors are offering and find out what they're doing differently. This will automatically lead you to step three. What can I do that my competitor is already doing: Remember that you're not looking to do things exactly how your competitor does it. The point of this step is to find inspiration and alter it in a way that makes it your own. Identify brands that you love as a consumer that are outside your industry: Every professional is also a customer. Find brands that you love, regardless of their size or industry, and figure out qualities that make you loyal to that brand. Try to observe and understand the behavior of brands that you have a likeness for. See how your observations can better your brand: Say, for instance, you love Amazon because they're reliable with their deliveries. When you properly observe, you'll realize that the reason you love Amazon is not that you receive emails; it's because you receive information that makes you feel confident, which brings us to the final step. Take a look at all of the different reasons a customer does business with your competitor or the reasons why you love doing business with somebody even outside of the industry, and implement those: Once you've done that, you'll automatically find areas that you can improve on.

#107 Steven Van Belleghem: Best Customer Experience Strategies For E-Commerce We're delighted to welcome Steven Van Belleghem, bestselling author, YouTuber, and co-founder of nexxworks, to this episode of The Ecom Show. Steven is the author of the bestselling book, The Conversation Manager. He also has a very helpful YouTube channel where he speaks about customer experience strategies. Steven has successfully founded several ventures like Snack Bites and Nexxworks. In recent years, his primary focus has been towards educating entrepreneurs about customer experience through webinars and YouTube. In this episode Steven and Daniel Budai, our podcast host and CEO, will discuss: ✔ Steven's Youtube Journey. ✔ Building An Emotional Customer Experience. ✔ Customer Experience Trends To Watch Out For. ✔ Why Businesses Need To Deep Dive Into Data. Steven's Youtube Journey Steven started his Youtube channel back in 2010, back then it was more to promote his newly launched book, The Conversation Manager. He had created an animated infographic video, a style which was really trending back in 2010, and he received over 50,000 views on his first videos. Post this, he took a hiatus up until 2014 and realized that he needed consistency to grow. Steven created an entire series of value based videos to help businesses better their customer experience. However, these videos didn't receive much traction. Instead of getting demotivated, Steven decided to push harder, and he now has a strong and growing community of over 20,000 subscribers. “It's slow. The hardest thing is the first 1000 subscribers, and then you're starting to have a community you start to feel it. It took me I think two or three years before it really took off. Now, I have a pretty active group of people who watch my content, and I enjoy it myself. I make a few videos each month.” So, the key learning for anyone looking to start a career in YouTube is to be persistent and patient through the entire journey. It takes time, but eventually it's worth the payoff. Building An Emotional Customer Experience Customer experience has changed a lot over the past few years. The past 10 years were really about making things very convenient. But after the big digital jump forward from COVID, convenience has become a commodity. It's no longer a differentiator. We live in a world where there's almost zero tolerance for digital inconvenience, people are not willing to waste their precious time on the digital incompetence of an organization. So, it's no longer a positive differentiator, it's a negative differentiator. Being very convenient is very cool, but it's only creating a transactional relationship. So, the goal to differentiate yourself in the next couple of years will indeed be to make it more emotional and there are two main ways to create a more emotional bond with your customers: The first one is what Steven calls, a partner in life strategy, where you try to understand the human behind the customer. This involves learning more about the interests, ambitions, and tastes of your customers. The better you understand that from each of your individual customers, the more value you can add to their life. So to become more emotional, it's not about optimizing the customer journey, it's about creating positive change in the life journey of people. The second one is about society. If you look to the world today, there are a lot of challenges on our plate, we have a fight against racism and discrimination, we have more geopolitical tension than we had in the last seven years, we have a climate crisis that is becoming more and more urgent, and we're still in the biggest healthcare crisis of our generation. And more and more customers expect organizations to make a difference to become part of the solution. Having a strong brand philosophy that works towards making the society a better place is a great way to emotionally connect with your customers. Everyone loves to support a brand that's genuinely trying to do good for people and the world around them.  This applies to businesses at all levels! If you're a small local company, try not to change the world, try to change your world, look at things in your own local community, where there's a challenge, where there's a problem, and see how you can contribute towards solving it. And if you do so, people will recognize that, and you will build a stronger emotional relationship. Customer Experience Trends To Watch Out For There are basically two key evolutions that will play a big role in transforming customer experience:  The first one is everything related to technology. Technology is evolving, and because of that the expectations of customers are evolving. The second dimension is the human part. As technology evolves, what does that mean for human customer service, human customer experience?There are three technology trends that can heavily change the way businesses and customers react. The first is artificial intelligence. AI will help us to automate customer relations and make it more personalized, which will in turn lead to faster interactions. The second technology trend that will change a lot in the next five years is the hype of cryptocurrency and NFTs. There's a lot going on now with NFT's and it could entirely change the way you look at customer loyalty. Because if you look at customer loyalty today, it's still very old fashioned. Let's take the example of a supermarket, imagine that the supermarket starts with their own coin as a loyalty instrument. Today in Belgium, when you go to the supermarket, you have to have 500 points, to avail a discount of five euros. It's not creating loyalty today, but what if you had a coin from that supermarket, which means that if the supermarket performs well, the value of your coin goes up. So as soon as you invest one euro in that supermarket, you get a coin as a reward system, so every time they perform well, you benefit from that. That means that the more successful they are, the more value you get, which means that there's a chance that you will evolve towards an active ambassador, because you have the same goal.  And then you have the whole evolution of the metaverse that has become a real hype since Mark Zuckerberg rebranded his own company which can have a huge impact in the next 5 to 10 years. The other side of the equation is the human part. The more digital the world becomes, the more value customers will find in a human relationship. While the role of humans might change they will always be needed to ace customer experience. Especially, when it comes to adding empathy, creativity, and passion to technology. Why Businesses Need To Deep Dive Into Data? There's a lot of talk about data and analytics being the key factor in driving business decisions, but let's deep dive into this a little bit more. Let's look at the Net Promoter Score survey, for instance. As a business owner, you fill out the survey and receive your score. But, what exactly do you do with that data? Most companies measure it, and then communicate the score in the organization, let's say you have 26. And then they tell the teams, we want to go to 30. And usually, that's where it ends. If you want to make NPS or any data work for you, you need to get to the bottom of it! You should be able to answer: what your score means and how a higher score would benefit you more to be able to understand the way to achieve it. As a leader it's important to translate what that data means for every individual employee, where you go to your account manager, for instance, and that you say, hey, look, dear account manager, you got to six. And that's because this small detail that may not be important to you was really crucial to the client. And if there's one thing that really gave or explained his low score, so if you improve that part of your job, you're going to score a 9 or a 10. If you can successfully tell your employees how their individual work is affecting the score, it becomes a workable goal that the entire team can work towards achieving. This erases the disconnect between the figures and the day to day activities on the floor. This works with customer feedback as well. Quantitative feedback is easier to get but it'll never be as effective as qualitative feedback. Instead of just asking for ratings, ask your customers questions to understand their perspective better.

This week's podcast hosted by Sean Price is with Steven Van Belleghem International Keynote Speaker, Author, founder of Nexxworks and partner of Intracto. “It's the friction hunting mindset”. Steven researches the future of customer experience and researching the customer behaviour in the digital world. We begin with hearing Steven's dream career/ position when he was a teenager, admitting that he aspired to be being the CEO of Disney to turning up to present a talk to a room with one single person in the audience. As well as playing a small part in the Dutch version of Cars 3. We hear the stories of being a keynote speaker, hearing about the demand increase of talks throughout the pandemic virtually. We go through Steven's 10-year journey in his career with 1250+ keynote speaking presentations done, travelling all over the globe presenting to hundreds of people on stage. Starting with his professor saying he should be a keynote speaker, once speaking with his parents he decided it was the career for him. Steven recalls his first big international presentation was in New Orleans, but whilst on the plane over he stumbled into a Belgium professor who had a start-up company called “insights consulting” (A online marketing research company). They chatted and drank multiple mini bottles of wine, and by the time the plane landed, Steven secured himself a position in his company, doing research in how people were using the internet (in 2001). This began Steven travelling around the world presenting that market study and the results, gaining more skills and experience. Years later we hear about how Steven received a call from Microsoft about doing a preshow presentation for Steven Ballmer (who at the time was CEO of Microsoft). Excited for the massive opportunity he came up and presented a talk titled “The Conversation Manager” (talking about how social media changed marketing communications). This was a massive hit with even people at the event speaking about Steven's presentation, this later became a bestselling book in Europe written by Steven. In today's episode, Sean and Steven get into several topics, from scheduling to get things done but also ensuring there is time to spend with the family. We also dive into what makes a good leader. Bringing up Steve Jobs, when he was running one of the most profitable companies (Apple). But does that make him a good leader, we discuss the route through and separate facts from fiction. We also here about how Covid-19 has affected Steven's keynote speaking schedule. Initially expecting it was “game over” when Covid-19 put a halt to doing shows/ speaking around the world, however this was not the case… The demand actually grew for keynote speakers through webinars and online video presentations. Steven admits his first webinar he felt uneasy due to the unnatural setting of staring into a web cam presenting without any feedback/reaction from the audience. Mentioning a revelation he made was news presenters speak to a camera in front of millions without a live crowd reaction, and still do a great job, this motivated him to do his best in the first couple months of the pandemic. After his first webinar online, Steven speaks about how he did not know the reaction it would get, to his surprised the virtual webinar presentation was a success. Thus, Steven's empty week filled up and he was as busy as ever.
