I keep talking about it because I\u2019m fascinated with how a genuine personalised experience can make a difference in our lives. When that coffee shop doesn\u2019t deliver on a genuine or personalised experience, I notice it. And I don\u2019t hesitate to express my disappointment. Think about this scenario in your own experiences \u2014 and from the point of view of your customer and from the Voice of the Customer (VoC).<\/p>\n<p>With the internet of things, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/en-sg\/resources\/top-10-ways-to-take-advantage-of-ai-and-deliver-great-customer-experiences?ost_tool=blog&amp;ost_campaign=blogpost\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">artificial intelligence and machine learning<\/a>, data is everywhere. Everything from our smartphones, home security systems, cars and other devices are constantly gathering personal and behavioral data. In this new landscape, how can we reimagine the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/blog\/post\/make-nps-the-fuel-that-powers-your-voc-engine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Voice of the Customer experience<\/a> in 2024?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Automated Voice of the Customer<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>By 2024, most interactions and experiences with our favorite brands will be built-in via sensors (physical and\/or electronic) to gather feedback in real time. That feedback will loop into big data analytics engines where we can map behaviors and preferences into a personalised <a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/en-sg\/collateral\/three-ways-to-use-ai-for-better-customer-journeys?ost_tool=blog&amp;ost_campaign=blogpost\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">consumer journey<\/a>. If there\u2019s a fraction in this mapped experience, a VoC team will become aware of it and can take actions to resolve it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Predictive Intelligence\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Brands will continue to collect customer data and feedback from various types of interactions. We\u2019ll learn more about customer buying habits, their usage of products and services, and their social influence. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/en-sg\/resources\/predictive-routing-in-action?ost_tool=blog&amp;ost_campaign=blogpost\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Predictive<\/a> modeling will allow companies and their VoC teams to scale up observations of consumers and improve their ability to discover fractions in the customer experience.<\/p>\n<p>Consumer journeys are highly personalised and tailored because all feedback and data are fed into those individual consumer journeys. This allows Voice of the Customer teams and brands to address fractions before consumers notice them. Additionally, brands will no longer need to ask the same customer satisfaction questions. This will enhance customer experience with the brand.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Privacy and Security\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With great power comes great responsibility. To build trust in the new system, businesses must respect the fact that their consumers own their data and decide what experiences they want \u2014 and with whom they want to share those experiences. While everyone is collecting consumer data, you want to first have their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/blog\/post\/ai-ethics-the-dawn-of-the-discrimination-engine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">permission to collect their data<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Let customers have control to adjust their preferences when they want to. This will allow you to know when it\u2019s appropriate to use the information for their journey<strong>.\u00a0<\/strong>Know what your customers value and care about \u2014 and at which moment in their journeys these experiences occur. This should be built-in as part of your predictive intelligence engine.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Evolution of VoC Teams<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In 2024, there will be a need for a Voice of the Customer team, but it will require new skills and high specialisation in certain areas.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Data Analysts:<\/strong> The data analytics role won\u2019t just be about simply collecting data and analysing surveys. It\u2019ll be a combination of data science and psychology. This team will be expected to analyse the data and then correlate it with a set of personalised habits and behaviors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Personalised Journey Designers:<\/strong> Today, everyone in the VoC space is doing some type of customer journey. By 2024, personalised journey designers will be specialised in the ins and outs of the craft to be deliberate, to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/en-sg\/resources\/customer-service-best-practices?ost_tool=blog&amp;ost_campaign=blogpost\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">understand what customers value<\/a> and to know their preferences.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Advancing Net Promoter Score (NPS) Systems:<\/strong> NPS is one way to collect customer feedback by asking the survey question: \u201cHow likely are you to recommend\u2026.\u201d But the NPS system will evolve, creating a corporate culture that enables managing and delivering on the brand promise across all functions. The advanced NPS system will provide instant coaching, highlight challenges, and give a framework to address major opportunities or introduce new services and products.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/en-sg\/resources\/improve-customer-satisfaction-sales-and-workforce-engagement-with-genesys-blended-ai?ost_tool=blog&amp;ost_campaign=blogpost\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Blending technology and humans<\/a> to create lasting and meaningful experiences is a fine art. It\u2019s complex, continuous and intentional \u2014 but it\u2019s all vital. Because, at the end of the day, humans are the ones advocating your brand and listening to the Voice of the Customer.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about how customer experience is changing, check out our webinar \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/webinars\/get-personalization-right-for-your-customers?ost_tool=blog&amp;ost_campaign=blogpost\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Get personalisation right for your customers<\/a>,\u201d with Genesys CEO Tony Bates and customer experience industry pioneer, Jeanne Bliss.
