Despite all of this hot July weather, we’ve got a cool new batch of updates we’d like to share this month, including our new webhook system (giving you the freedom to relay feedback data to several other applications), a brand new deployment script (without jQuery), a new feature that lets users add feedback form data to a cookie and some updates to our email alert feature!

Even though artificial intelligence has been around for 60 years, it is only now that we can use AI to create personalized customer experiences, better self-service and key customer insights. For decades we’ve provided customers with experiences that were very non-human. All too often we don’t know who our customers are, what’s going on in their lives or what they need. Across the board, customer experiences are still made for the masses and not the individual. However, advances in AI have made it possible for brands to treat customers less like machines and more like people.

Recently, I was chatting with longtime colleague and friend, Keith Essency. I first met Keith when I worked in the Motorola Semiconductor business in marketing and he was on the engineering side. We were talking about process and root cause analysis for something he is tackling (a nod to all my fellow Motorolans from the process mapping era).

You understand what it takes to provide a great customer experience. In fact, you are a great warrior on behalf of the customer. You can’t stand hearing about what customers complain about, simply because you think that hiccup should have never happened. That problem with marketing is because those people in marketing don’t get it like you do. Those complaints about distribution could be solved if the right people were there. Nobody seems to really get it in your organization, except you.

Heaps of companies are shifting their focus to the online Voice of the Customer. In fact, many of these companies have been asking us how our solution differs from other feedback tools on the market. A sensible question actually, considering many tools look very similar to one another on the front-end. That’s why we’ve created an overview that hones in on the major differences between Mopinion and Usabilla.

In the much-cited book Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman he talks about how the brain works to create two selves, the experiencing self and the remembering self. The experience self is one that lives in the present whilst the remembering self is “the one that keeps score, that maintains the story of our life”. Based on our memory of an experience and our life it is a different entity to the experiencing self.

If you work in customer service, chances are you know the signs of a complaining customer.
You might recognize them by their pointed tones, their defensive, often raised voices (over email or live chat, this may present itself as all caps writing), and their creative use of insults. You may recognize the way they hold up the line at checkout, the way they demand to speak to management, or the way a look of disbelief plants itself on their faces when they hear that what they are asking for simply cannot be done.
Nobody likes a complaining customer, yet it’s something that every organization has to deal with. What businesses are increasingly realizing, however, is that despite their bad rap, complaining customers are a lot more than just a stitch in your side – they are something that every company can and should learn from.
Here are the top 7 reasons why complaining customers are your best customers, and what you can do to turn dreaded customer complaints into golden opportunities.
