Top Takeaways:

  • Customer experience, including customer service, is marketing. Create an experience that gests people to say, “I’ll be back,” and makes them want to share it with others.
  • Understand what your customers want and deliver consistently. Customers usually have many options. When your product is available in other places, customer experience becomes the differentiator that determines if your customers continue to do business with you or move on to your competitors.
  • Every company has a story – what they are about, how they work, and what kind of experience their customers can expect of them. Marketing must tell that story to the customer support team so everybody in the company can embody that story.
  • The frontline customer service and sales reps dealing directly with your customers are part of your marketing department.
  • Your best marketing campaign comes from customers who have had an experience with your business and tell people about it.
  • Social media managers are more involved in customer service now than they used to be in years past. Make sure your brand’s story is shared with your social media team – and everyone else in the company.
  • Plus, Christophe (content marketer) and Shep (customer service and experience expert) each share their definition of what a brand is. Tune in!

Quotes:

“Marketing is not just about getting people in the door. Marketing is about supporting customer experience and success.”

“Figure out what people are trying to get out of doing business with you. Find out what their goal is, and go from there.”

“Branding is more than the logo or the colors. It is also about how your customers feel about your brand and what it stands for.”

“Your brand is what people say it is, but you always have a vote in the matter. You can create the experience that makes people feel the brand.”
