SAN JOSE — In an effort to amplify their reach into San Jose communities, the city’s civilian police watchdog has launched a new website and text-messaging system to gather citizen feedback and take complaints.
The move is a nod to the evolving modes of communication for younger residents less inclined to make a phone call or show up to the Office of the Independent Police Auditor (which just moved a block away from its previous location).

Here is some advice for entrepreneurs and even managers in corporate companies. Never assume you really know your potential customer. Ever. That will force you to do several things:

Customer experience (CX) professionals have it so easy today. In the past we relied on surveys as our primary source of customer insights. Now with so many options for connecting with customers, CX professionals have it made!
But can so many options actually make it more difficult? How do you keep track of the options? How do you determine which are best for you? How do you pull everything together into one cohesive voice?
On second thought, maybe today’s CX professionals have it harder than I thought.

The difference between a good business and a great one often comes down to the small details. Companies who show that they care about those details are generally more successful and more popular among their customers. Any prosperous business will tell you that part of the secret of getting to the top is to be good at both eliciting and listening to feedback.

Marketers need to understand their customers’ individual personalities and situations, as well as their online browsing preferences, in order to deliver them the right messaging at the right time.
Data is helping advertisers and brands know their audience and gain insights into customer behaviour. But for companies to use data successfully they need to understand the consumer on an individual level in addition to knowing what they search for online.

The ability to collect massive amounts of data represented a huge leap forward in customer service and communication when customer relationship management first hit the market as a marketing, sales and data management tool.
However, CRMs weren't a holy grail. Data management is one thing. Using data to understand what customers really need (not just what you think they do) and how to engage them is another thing entirely.
CRMs were not built to be nimble. Times change, customer expectations change, and the technology needs to change with it.

To improve customer experiences, brands are increasingly turning to data to give them insights and direction. Some of the benefits include helping brands personalize the customer experience. This creates a more enjoyable and memorable moment for customers. In return, they can become repeat customers. Plus, they may tell others about their (hopefully) great experience. Also, a company can pinpoint what works and what needs improvement with the current CX strategy.
