Are you struggling to get user feedback for your product or service? Maybe you haven’t even considered that you should be gathering user feedback? If you fall into either of those categories, you’ve come to the right place. A review and feedback are not the same things. Sure, you might have some glowing 5-star reviews for your business but what are they telling you? While a good review tells you that a customer loves your company, it doesn’t tell you why or what’s most important to them and on the other hand, what about difficulties they might have faced or areas you could improve?. That’s where user feedback comes in. Your company will never grow if you don’t have it.
So why does user feedback matter? Simply put, user feedback helps you create better products. If you want to improve your company and keep your valued customers happy, here are four strategies to boost user feedback.

When it comes to the retail customer experience, creating and developing a seamless CX isn't just a focal point for the big brand names and national retailers. It's also a must for the smaller and mid-size retailer.
Yet oftentimes the SMB retail operator doesn't have a tremendous budget or internal resources to take on the crucial CX effort and it can sometimes fall into the cracks within the day-to-day operations of running a small retail shop.
But as one expert shares, that doesn't have to be the scenario as developing a rewarding retail customer experience doesn't necessarily equate to spending thousands, hiring on staff or contracting out for services.
One of the best, and quickest, approaches is understanding that a customer experience does not end once the purchase transaction has ended, according to Pam Slim, author, consultant and small business expert.

Each and every page on your website / mobile app serves a different purpose, so why should your feedback buttons be any different? Well they’re not – at least not anymore which is something that many feedback companies have caught onto. In fact, most of these companies know that in order to get the best and most relevant feedback results, you (the user) will want to tweak your feedback forms so that they are aligned with the goals of specific pages or funnels.
The thing is…most feedback tools don’t exactly facilitate the deployment of different feedback buttons with specific forms – at least not without you having to implement multiple scripts.

We put together this quick list of best practices for responding to customer feedback, so you’re always prepared to make the most of it—whether it’s glowing, scatching, or just so-so.

Data is only as valuable as what you do with it, and Voice of the Customer (VoC) data is no different. In a world where a superior Customer Experience (CX) is now viewed as a key competitive advantage, leveraging VoC as part of your Customer Experience Management (CEM) efforts has never been more important.
Naturally, you must take a customer-centric approach to your CEM efforts, otherwise you run the risk of designing an experience that doesn’t meet their needs, and that places you behind the 8-ball compared to your peers. You need to better understand how your customers think – what makes them interact with your brand the way they do, and how they feel about the experiences you provide them. These insights go a long way, but what exponentially increases the value of this customer feedback is how you leverage these insights as part of your CEM to build better experiences for your customers.

Gathering customer feedback and incorporating the data you collect as part of your marketing process will empower you and your team to drive effective strategies and resonate with audiences beyond your normal reach.
One of the most challenging aspects of marketing is identifying which initiatives and levers will reliably reach your intended audience and customer. Blindly following trends or making assumptions about what your customers want is a surefire path to failure.
To reach your audience, you must first understand them. One of the best methods to accomplish this is asking questions and gathering information, and then using that to tailor your approach. By choosing instead to listen and learn, you'll not only start to develop better campaigns, but you'll also foster genuine goodwill. Apparently, customers like when you listen to them. Who knew?
