Voice Of the Customer

The voice of the customer silences all assumptions, opinions and perceptions.

Business Lesson: Continually changing, overcomplicating or overcharging for your product or service will eventually drive away customers and dry up any existing market(s).

You can self-justify making all the changes you wish to your product or business but if your customer(s) doesn’t perceive the change as ‘value added’ then you’re ultimately diminishing marketshare (customers), not building it.

We love racing of all types but here’s a perfect example: NASCAR in recent years has continually changed the rules for the sake of leveling the playing field, over complicated the points system to the point it takes a statistician to know who is winning & losing, and the price for tickets has skyrocketed… obviously, one or more of these factors has driven fans out of the seats and with it their wallets (money spent on tickets, food & drinks, souvenirs, etc.), all of which negatively impacts NASCAR and the sport as a whole.

TAKEAWAY: Change is inevitable, however make changes within your business all the while listening to your customers and their feedback to gauge whether the changes you’re making are received as positive or negative (by your customers).

Dream Big. Embrace the Process. Affirm the Way.
