    Writing the Blueprint for Customer Obsession: Marbue Brown - S10E8

    This week, I had the chance to read the blueprint for customer obsession (literally) with the help of Marbue Brown. He’s a CX practitioner with years of experience at companies who can more or less take credit for starting the movement toward customer obsession. Amazon, Microsoft, Cisco, JP Morgan Chase… you know, just some mom-and-pop shops. We discuss how the truly customer-obsessed companies out there go to extremes. They do things in their day-to-day operations that would get most people laughed out of the room. And most importantly, they innovate nonstop, because customer expectations never stop changing, either. So get ready to hear an insider’s perspective from companies that brought customer-centricity mainstream and learn everything you can. Enjoy! 🟠About Marbue Brown Marbue Brown is an accomplished customer experience (CX) executive with a track record of thought leadership and signature business results at some of the most iconic companies on the planet, including JP Morgan Chase, Amazon.com, Microsoft Corporation, and Cisco Systems. As a CX leader, he guided the Chase Consumer Bank to record performance in the JD Power Retail Banking Study, NPS and branch satisfaction. He transformed the Andon Cord mechanism at Amazon.com from a primarily manually triggered system to a primarily automated system triggered by machine learning and statistical models. The Andon Cord is one of Amazon.com’s most significant mechanisms it uses to personify its Customer Obsession culture. Marbue devised and codified the NSAT Improvement Approach at Microsoft, which was widely used by business units to dramatically improve CX as well as international subsidiaries who won nationwide awards in the process. He co-authored seminal articles about customer experience measurements that are widely cited in industry. He is a sought after speaker and published author on customer experience, business strategy and economic policy. 🟠Connect with Marbue Brown Follow Marbue Brown on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/marbue-brown-43a8a52/ Get Blueprint for Customer Obsession on Amazon: https://a.co/d/jd695U0 🟠Connect with the Voices of CX Follow Worthix on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/worthix/ Follow Worthix on Instagram: @voicesofcx Follow Mary Drumond on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/marydrumond/ Follow Mary Drumond on Twitter: @drumondmary 🟠About Voices of CX Podcast The Voices of CX Podcast is a podcast that covers all things business strategies, customer decision insight, empathetic leadership practices, and tips for sustainable profitability.

    B2B Content Marketing with a Growth Strategy: A. Lee Judge – S10E7

    This week, we got into the weeds of digital content production with A. Lee Judge. Lee is the co-founder and CEO of Content Monsta, a B2B marketing content agency that specializes in podcasting. What really sets him apart is his focus on generating and proving ROI which comes from his own experience as a marketer. There is a multitude of services for B2B marketers to outsource their content generation efforts, but Lee realized there was still a huge gap: a lack of providers who understood the needs of marketing from an insider’s perspective. So naturally, that was the need he set out to fulfill with Content Monsta. We get into the nitty-gritty of a content-based growth strategy, and opening the door for authentic marketing creativity from your employees – and in some special cases, customers too. Enjoy! 🟠About A. Lee Judge A. Lee Judge is the Co-Founder and CMO of Content Monsta, a content marketing production agency.

    CX Professionals Worldwide Get Back to Basics: Rick Denton - S10E6

    This week, I talked to fellow podcaster and CX professional Rick Denton. He hosts the CX Passport podcast and believes that the best meals are served outside and require a passport, and I tend to agree with that! He’s also the managing principal at EX4CX, a business growth consultancy that wants to help CX professionals stop the “survey & score” mindset to start a “listen & act” one. Also agreed. He’s also recently had a change of mindset around where CX is in the pecking order of business goals. He now sees it more as a specialized tool to accomplish a job, and that job has always been creating customer value and business growth. Agree strongly. And that’s not to say CX is getting phased out – far from it. In fact, Rick sees countries around the world, particularly in the Middle East, embracing CX with a vengeance by piggybacking on the tried-and-true basics that are already working in the US and EU. Enjoy the show, and get ready to expand your horizons a little bit beyond just CX. 🟠About Rick Denton Rick Denton believes the best meals are served outside and require a passport. A sought after Customer Experience Advisor and keynote speaker, Rick enables companies to achieve Experience Transformation, guiding them to stop Survey & Score and start Listen & Act, using a Total Voice of the Customer approach. As a Managing Principal at EX4CX – Execution for Customer Experience, Rick helps clients unlock tangible business value from their Voice of the Customer Programs, create Customer Experience visions, culture and reality while driving revenue growth & operational improvement. In his leadership roles prior to EX4CX such as with Bose, Capital One and several other industry champions, Rick created customer obsessed cultures, high performance execution systems, and clear outcome-oriented alignment. Rick delivered these results across multiple industries and company size profiles both domestically and internationally. In addition to scouring the globe for the best customer experiences, Rick, his wife and two children, love to travel the globe simply to travel. You’ll as easily find them in Texas as you’ll find them in Thailand. (Ask him about the fantastic grilled squid on a stick!…Or the not so great fried tarantula!) When he’s not with the family or clients, you’ll likely find Rick hiking on a mountain somewhere in the southwestern USA desert. Rick combines these loves by hosting the CX Passport podcast, a weekly talk with guests about customer experience and travel. 🟠Connect with Rick Denton Follow Rick Denton on LinkedIn Visit Rick’s consultancy at www.ex4cx.com For tips and workbooks on achieving total VoC, visit www.totalvoc.com Listen to Rick on the CX Passport podcast – www.cxpassport.com 🟠Connect with the Voices of CX Follow Worthix on LinkedIn Follow Worthix on Instagram: @voicesofcx Follow Mary Drumond on LinkedIn Follow Mary Drumond on Twitter: @drumondmary 🟠About Voices of CX Podcast The Voices of CX Podcast is a podcast that covers all things business strategies, customer decision insight, empathetic leadership practices, and tips for sustainable profitability.

    Behavior Design; Map Key Behaviors by being Uncomfortably Specific: Kristen Berman - S10E5

    This week, I had the pleasure of speaking with Kristen Berman. She’s a behavioral scientist, CEO, and co-founder of Irrational Labs, helping teams apply behavioral design research to their products and services. We covered multiple ways to think about behavior design, like studying the physical environment in which decisions are made, resolving conflicts with established metrics, and mapping customers’ path to your desired behavior using what Kristen calls “getting uncomfortably specific”. Long-time listeners know that any day I get to geek out about behavioral design with an expert is a good day, so naturally, this episode was as fun as it was educational. Enjoy! 🟠About Kristen Berman Kristen is the co-founder of Irrational Labs, a behavioral economics product design company, with author and professor Dan Ariely.
