To the customer, however, the service interaction feels like insult has been added to injury. <\/p>\n<p>When expectation meets reality and the two don\u2019t align, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/ca\/hub\/service\/improve-customer-experience\/\">customer experience<\/a> isn\u2019t just damaged. Sometimes it means the customer\u2019s relationship with the company ends, and they go on to share what happened with other people they know.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, the customer\u2019s family and friends will only hear their side of the story. It doesn\u2019t matter. Negative perceptions can do a lot to influence whether people who might otherwise have brought business your way go to a competitor instead. <\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no point in complaining about customers being unreasonable or unrealistic. Your responsibility \u2014 and priority \u2014 should be to better understand how their expectations are developed, and then figure out what you can do if they can\u2019t be met. <\/p>\n<h2><b>1. Figure Out Where The Fog Needs To Be Cleared<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Go back to your ideal customer journey. Many companies literally map these out, striating with the moment a customer first learns about a brand to when they buy something and the help they need afterwards. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/ca\/blog\/2017\/09\/brainstorm-better-customer-service-experience.html\">Think of the customer journey<\/a> as an actual trip they\u2019re taking from one location to another. Somewhere along the way, as their expectations are being developed, it\u2019s possible they\u2019re driving through some fog. <\/p>\n<p>This could be a piece of legalese in a contract that could be called out more explicitly, or jargon in your marketing copy that glosses over what it takes to make the most of a product or service. Maybe you\u2019ve simply left out terms, conditions or other information and customers are filling in the blanks themselves. If so, that usually spells trouble. <\/p>\n<p>Find the fog and make sure you improve the journey by replacing it with roadsigns. In other words, point them towards details that make sure their expectations are more in line with reality. <\/p>\n<h2><b>2. Curate A Collection Of Alternatives And Make-Goods<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>A customer experience is going to go badly if agents are only able to talk about what they can\u2019t do. Knowing that sometimes expectations will not be met, think about some positives they could bring forward instead. <\/p>\n<p>If a customer can\u2019t return a product, for example, you can have policies that allow them to exchange it for something that is more expensive but in line with their expectations at a small discount. This involves understanding the lifetime value of you customer and whether it makes financial sense, but if it\u2019s doable it can be an effective \u201cmake-good.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In other cases, an agent may not be able to do much about a customer who didn\u2019t do their homework when they were shopping around. What the agent can do, however, is point the customer to resources to make a more informed purchase next time. They could also point them to self-service tools that let them get as much value from their purchase as possible. <\/p>\n<p>There may even be occasions where it makes sense to direct disappointed customers to other businesses in your industry that can deliver on expectations that you\u2019re not prepared to meet. People just don\u2019t want to feel like they\u2019ve reached a dead end. If you can provide genuine help, they\u2019ll appreciate it and possibly come back for something else on another occasion.<\/p>\n<h2><b>3. Let Data Drive Your Product And Service Development Plans<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>If the expectations vs. reality problem is an isolated incident, it may just be an issue with the customer in question. If you start to see the same situation bubbling up again and again, though, it\u2019s time to take a closer look at the data. <\/p>\n<p>Customer service departments collect some of the most valuable data in the company, and it shouldn\u2019t be relegated to the latter stages of the journey. As you learn more about what customers expect from your products and services, explore what you could do to refine them and avoid more uncomfortable post-purchase conversations. <\/p>\n<p>This doesn\u2019t have to be a post-mortem exercise when you study the data after the fact. Think about how you could augment your customer service process to survey people about their expectations. Involve them in the process of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/ca\/blog\/2019\/06\/sell-difficult-product-or-service.html\">developing products, services and experiences<\/a> that reflect the reality they want to see. <\/p>\n<p>You may not be able to please everyone all of the time, but paying closer attention to customer expectations and adopting a data-driven approach to responding to them will put the odds back in your favour. It may mean customers expect even more of your but that\u2019s okay. When customer expectations escalate, that also means you have an even greater opportunity to grow your share of business with them. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p> <span id=\"authorRoot\" path=\"\/content\/blogs\/ca\/en\/authors\/\"><\/span> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When expectation meets reality and the two don\u2019t align, the customer experience isn\u2019t just damaged.
