I’ve built enough products to know this: your users will never send you a polite email saying, “Hey, your checkout button confused me, so I’m out.” They just vanish. Poof. No drama, no goodbye, just gone forever with their wallet still closed. Bad UX isn’t about the pretty colors or the fancy animations. It’s the...

When I look at customer experience (CX) today, I see a pattern. Customers move quickly, teams move carefully, and the gap between the two creates most of the friction we deal with. AI is supposed to help, and in some places it does, but it also adds new points of uncertainty. None of this is...

If you’ve worked in customer experience for more than five minutes, you already know that everyone has an opinion about NPS. Some people swear by it, some people swear at it, and most of us sit somewhere in the middle, trying to make sense of the score while juggling everything else on our plates. But...

Customer insight is supposed to be the superpower of modern businesses. I’ve spent years inside growth teams, product teams, and early-stage companies, and one thing has always been clear: collecting feedback is the easy part.  Every organization sends surveys, gathers NPS scores, reviews chat transcripts, and tracks behavior in analytics dashboards. But somewhere between capturing...

Most brands believe they understand how people perceive them. They glance at reviews, skim NPS scores, and call it a day. Then, one day, a Reddit thread or a frustrated Quora post goes viral, and suddenly, the truth emerges in 500 unfiltered comments. That’s brand sentiment. It’s what people “really” think about your brand when...

Negative feedback can sting, but it’s also the most honest signal you’ll get about where things aren’t working. By turning negative feedback into positive, complaints become free research that guides better products and stronger relationships. But here’s the truth! Negative feedback isn’t the end of the road. It’s often the most honest signal you’ll ever...

Richard Branson nailed it when he said the secret to a great business isn’t just meeting customer expectations—it’s exceeding them in ways they never saw coming.And I couldn’t agree more. Customer satisfaction, retention, and loyalty aren’t just nice-to-haves—they’re the foundation of long-term, sustainable growth. Loyal customers don’t just stick around because they’re happy—they stay because...

When I think about keeping customers happy, customer service is the first thing that comes to mind. It’s what we all default to, right? But here’s the truth—customer service is just one small piece of the puzzle. The bigger picture? It’s called customer experience, and trust me, that’s what really drives long-term success. Customer experience...

Have you ever noticed how the best brands seem to just get their customers? They know what people want, fix issues before they become problems, and keep improving. The secret? They listen. In fact, businesses that act on customer feedback are 60% more profitable than those that don’t. And it makes sense—how can you improve...
