5. Become Part of a VOC Community
VOC programs are becoming more complex and much more
strategic within many organizations.
Leverage insights from other customer experience executives
from within and outside your industry.
Sharing knowledge, ideas, best practices and successful case
studies is a great way to increase your chances of success.
– Look for a vendor that has an existing community of VOC executives
and speech analytics users.
– Some vendors also offer consulting services from experienced VOC
analysts that can help you achieve rapid and significant return on
your VOC investment.
