Most brands hear from just one percent of their customers, according to a recent study. But there's a way they can hear from a staggering 91% of them. The one caveat?
They have to be mobile-app-using customers. Apptentive just released its 2019 mobile customer engagement report, based on data from 1,400 apps. Those 1400 apps have engaged in half a billion customer conversations for Fortune 500 brands across two billion devices worldwide, the company says.
Without brand effort, just one percent of customers reach out to give feedback. Apptentive calls them the "vocal minority," and divides them into the more engaged and less engaged: the ones you love you and the ones who hate you.

Many would say Toys R’ Us failed because of financial mismanagement and delusions of grandeur. That’s true.
But it also failed because it didn’t value the opinions of its customers. It didn’t listen to what customers wanted quickly enough, and by the time they acknowledged the problem, it was too late.
Customers needs and wants were evolving with technology. They wanted speed and accessibility online. They wanted great customer interactions and experiences in the stores, and they wanted an emotional connection to the brands they support.
