Our expectations for good customer experience are changing. Or are they? All we have ever really expected is to be recognized, treated respectfully and served efficiently.
In the past, delivering good experiences through our customer contact centers meant hiring and training empathetic, knowledgeable and accessible agents. Today the only way to maintain this human touch is through an intelligent combination of human and digital engagement that I call the “humanoid touch.”

Stitch Fix, established in 2011 in San Francisco, has disrupted the fashion retail industry. With input from the customer and collaboration between artificial intelligence (AI) and human stylists, the online styling subscription service eliminates the need for their customers to go out and shop for clothing or even browse online, because they deliver personalized recommendations right to their door on a regular schedule. The customers can keep all of the products or return what they don’t like or need. That feedback gets input into the company’s data vaults to make the algorithms even better at determining the preferred style for each person and even identify trends.

Finding it hard to keep your brand in good shape? Is your current marketing regime failing to deliver the gains you anticipated? Perhaps a bit of AI is just what you need... It has long been considered that customer churn is a painful reality of doing business. That used to be true, but nowadays it can be avoided.
A lot of brands out there are obsessed with measuring their performance by way of customer surveys. Quick question: do you suffer from ‘survey fatigue’? If your answer is ‘yes’, you can guarantee your consumers do too.
It’s just plain lazy to ask the customer about their experience when the brand already has that information buried deep within its own systems – and frankly, a little insulting. Is the customer’s time somehow less valuable? Customer feedback definitely has a role to play, but it should be part of a bigger picture.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve probably noticed that the term ‘artificial intelligence’ is being thrown around just about everywhere. It has become a major corporate buzzword and hype, especially among digital marketers. Meanwhile half of us still don’t really know what it means or better yet, what it can do for our business. That’s why we’re here to tell you specifically what AI can do for you and how it can make your customer feedback more actionable.

Cutting-edge companies are turning to artificial intelligence and machine learning to transform how they interact with customers, strengthening those relationships, distinguishing themselves from competitors, and increasing revenues.
At the center of this transformation are technologies such as chatbots, recommendation engines, personalized communications, intelligent ad targeting, and image recognition. Gartner analyst John-David Lovelock predicts that AI-derived business value will more than triple to $3.9 trillion by 2022 — with improvements to the customer experience key to this growth.

It’s easy to see a world in which the predictive capabilities of artificial intelligence (AI) will direct who we have with children with, where we live and what our next job should be. All based on the algorithm’s ever-deepening knowledge of our habits, location, family circumstances and personality.
In reality, few of us would want our lives ruled by a self-teaching algorithm. But for the majority of consumer businesses, AI (an umbrella term that includes natural language processing and machine learning) is a potentially transformative force, providing vital insights into what is happening and what is likely to happen. Advances in AI mean that what customers feel about a company or brand will drive significant change in business. These are fast-developing capabilities that no consumer-facing business can ignore if it wishes to maintain its competitive edge.

By 2020, customer experience (CX) will overtake price as a key product differentiator.

AI can help make customer experiences more personalized, accurate, and effortless. Through audience segmentation, customer communication, and product recommendations, AI is able to enhance marketing strategies at scale in a way humans can’t by themselves.
In a world where customers are looking for smooth experiences and information at their fingertips, AI-enabled tools can make the difference in marketing.

Understanding consumer habits and how customers think and feel about your businesses can be key to success, but conducting paper or online surveys doesn’t always yield the best results, (and how often do people actually take the time to fill those out anyway); a Toronto-based company is attempting to solve this problem by updating the world of customer feedback with its interactive chatbot.
Chatter Research says it can increase response rates by 800 per cent and gather more data about the customer experience using its artificial intelligence-powered chatbot. It’s being recognized by the Information Technology Association of Canada as the Spark winner at the 2018 Ingenious Awards.
