  1. today’s markets and marketing are being driven by a perfect storm a storm that is changing the rules by which we bring products to market and engage with customersContent marketing and marketing automationSocial mediaBig data analyticsAgile design developmentConsumerization and mobilization of enterprise solutions andPlatforms such as cloud computing and a host of APIs and services are all making their contribution
  2. in addition to changing how we bring products to market and how we engage customers that storm is accelerating something even more fundamentalThe dialogue and the pace of innovationIn today’s markets, the really great customers are just asking to be a part of our dialogue of innovation they are demanding it.

  4. And our customers expectations are growing – Insanely Great is fast becoming the new good enough.
  5. When visiioned and developed with today’s tools, it also becomes a framework for.
  6. And let’s not forget one of the important team members the customer!
  7. As we talked about earlier the purpose of voice of the customer program or plan is to help you accelerate the value you create for your customers and your companyWe believe that should be the overarching goal of any VOC program
  8. You’ve heard us talk about this multiple times but the most important question you need to help answer is why question. it is this question that gives you the deep insight that helps you identify where the opportunities for true innovation lie. throughout the work you do in engaging and understanding the voice of the customer this question should always be a part of what you ask.

  10. that means creating information and insight for your company that helps you identify how you can help customers get jobs that need to be done done more effectivelyWhile there are lots of opportunities to address customer needs you want a way to focus your time and your resources on the ones that will create the greatest value for you and your customers you don’t want to spend a lot of time addressing issues that are low in customer value and/or that the customer already feels are adequately provided for in the marketWhile you may need to address some of these purely from a customer satisfaction or market requirement standpoint these by themselves are going to accelerate your growthThe ones you want to focus on are the ones that create the highest value for the customers that are not readily available in the marketThese are the ones that are game changers in the market they’re also the ones that aren’t readily apparent to most vendorsThey are the ones that emerge because you have invested in understanding your customers better and more deeply than anyone elseAnd that is our definition of innovationAnd we believe that should be your overall strategy
  11. Understand and embrace the entire customer journey. Take the time to explore the journey your customer experiences. Try to see it through their eyes. Better yet spend time and get feedback from customers and prospects that have travelled it in its entirety, and those that blew out of it for some reason. This is great place to bring the insight in from win / loss reports and analysis from sales teams
  12. Innovation programs are growing in popularity and in maturitySome of the best examples we have of that within the technology industry is open source softwareThe business drivers for this emphasis on innovation programs includes the pace of innovation, the global diversity of need and innovation and the recognition by companies that insight, talent and the ability to recognize and act on opportunities isn’t the exclusive domain of their organization. They recognize that keep up the need to tap into not just their internal community but their external ecosystem of customers, partners, government and academic organizations.Social networks, social media monitoring and many of the elements we talked about in the perfect storm are also drivers for the new interest in growth in this area.Whether it’s identifying or refining product and services opportunities, new business models or optimizing supply chain relationships you’ll find innovation programs in one form or another focused on these areas.As these programs of maturity companies have learned quickly that a free-for-all or ad hoc approach to this doesn’t produce much in terms of resultsThey’ve learned it has to be defined managed process that clearly has business benefits and monetary opportunities for those involvedOne of the major challenges remains working through intellectual property issues and ownership and the other major challenge is dealing with internal corporate cultures that are still working with a not invented here attitude.In practice you can find innovation portals, laboratories and major program efforts across industriesThose that seem to be most successful with them envision themselves as a platform and an ecosystem facilitator that drives innovation around that platformThey also work hard to make it easy for others to leverage their platform and build businesses of their ownWe believe this is going to be increasingly critical area for most companies and will become one of the primary extensions for voice of the customer programs
