37
Being on the phone to their bank or insurance company is not a passion many people share
38
We have better things to do than deal with frustrating dumb things……
39
We dont normally go to work to do dumb things……its very frustrating for staff as well as customers !
40
Nevertheless in many cases this is how staff feel they are treating customers
41
The more frustrations a customer experiences, the harder they are to reach when you want to
42
And so profitability suffers
43
Or you can use customers frustrations Why order Pizza when it never comes and its cold when it does –Domino, 30 min guarantee Why go to the video store, they never have what you want –Blockbuster, in stock or free next time
44
Customers will pay to do so

CS Solutions Fast+Simple Research Headlines March 2004
48
The UK survey found that Fast+Simple companies have a number of things in common Businesses admit they are not Fast+Simple Being systematic is critical if you are to avoid wasting lots of energy There is a correlation between executive ownership and success
49
UK plc is not delivering Fast+Simple experiences for customers 77% of businesses admit they are not Fast+Simple – 59 % of these believe this is due to a lack of consistency across the business Being systematic is critical if you are to avoid wasting lots of energy. – 52 % believe they are wasting effort in capturing customer feedback although in 93 % of companies voice of customer is a board level issue – 74 % blame lack of resources and collaboration for not addressing process issues end to end across the business There is a correlation between executive ownership and success –Companies who look at Voice of Customer (VoC) on an end to end basis are twice as likely (71% vs 34%) to have board members with personal targets for customer satisfaction improvements Source: Budd industry survey, April 2004

52
We believe that Fast+Simple companies have a number of things in common Work systematically to remove their customers frustrations Have strong leadership and are, more often than not, founder or entrepreneur led by someone who has an eye for the real detail of what customers experience Have thoroughly thought through (say that carefully !) what they do, so they can see a beginning, a middle and an end to what they do and why they do it for their customers –they have joined up thinking Focus on delivering some Brilliant Basics consistently Focus on their people Are systematic, wasting as little energy as possible Work in closed loops by planning, monitoring and analysing what they do so they can improve it Use all the data they have and dont go looking for data they cant or dont use

CS Solutions Fast+Simple – Amazon Case Study Systematically Creating Fast+Simple Customer Experiences
62
Amazon has had to be systematic to be fast+simple Tom Peters on ecustomerserviceworld in London May 2003 I have been ordering books from Amazon for 6 years. I have never talked to a living human being from Amazon. I never want to meet a living human being from Amazon. Why Amazon scores 12 out of 10 for service
63
And objectively to win the customers praise (ACSI Survey)
64

66
Systematically bringing the customer inside Rigorous root-cause analysis, reporting, ownership (30 easy to remember codes instead of 300; no drop downs; Manhattan Skyline; weekly Ops Meetings; CPO known all over) Improved/expanded self-service (C4 Project co-led by CS and Web Dev; applied Six Sigma teams) One contact resolution (no snowballs; have you educated a customer today; <9% escalation) Feedback to improve ops, search, promotions, etc. (bccg outside of CS; WOCAS reports; dedicated project manager inside CS; Elves; make it happen) Focus on quality responses/solutions (homegrown linked QA/training process; Over the Top Award top 10% from balanced productivity/quality)

We present the voice of the customer to be live and actionable, hence the Skyline Top contact reasons, arranged in decreasing volumes for most recent week with short term trend data Each code showing one year ago, and stretch target over next year Average handle time for each code drives costs per week per code giving instant ROI cases for action Each code assigned to an executive owner Budget reversed to those executive owners Each code has a root cause programme manager Just as important to know why codes improved week over week, as why they might have gotten worse
