Feedback is worth so much more than the paper it’s written on

Recently I’ve become a ‘yelper.’ For those not in the know, www.yelp.com is an ‘online, urban city guide’ where anyone, anywhere can post a review on products and services ranging from restaurants to vets to state run facilities.  I initially used the social review site as a guide for restaurants, hairdressers, places to watch the Chicago Bears hopefully romp home to victory.  However, in the last few weeks, I’ve graduated from freshmen yelper, to at least sophomore grade, as I’ve also been writing reviews based on my experiences.

To date – I’ve written three reviews.  Of these, only 1 was good….

This week is also National Customer Service week. Now in its 18th year, this is time that many companies around the world will use to honor individuals and companies who go beyond the call of duty to champion extraordinary customer service and support. Hopefully companies (including you, American Airlines) will also take advantage of this week to reflect on and/or rethink your approach to your customers’ experience. This was certainly front of mind for those contact center folks I met at CCExpo a few weeks ago – How can they focus on their customers’ experience when their own is so bad, littered with a myriad of desktop applications to respond to even the most basic requests? Sheesh…
