BACKGROUND

Often customers can't tell you what they really want yet unspoken needs not only drive buying behavior, they are a powerful source of new product innovation. Product developers who know how to tap into these needs are steps ahead of the competition.

Everything from knowing what to ask, whom to ask, and how to ask is critical. Just talking with customers, while admirable, can actually lead you astray if done incorrectly. That's why Getting Voice of the Customer Right: Mastering the Art of Customer Visits will examine how to conduct customer visits where you can personally enter the world of your customers and learn about their unspoken needs through direct interaction. Programmatic customer visits for product development have been a business practice for over twenty years and if executed successfully, can generate unique customer perspectives that would be difficult to gain from other VOC activities.

Focused on best practices and key criteria for success, this seminar will provide participants with practical, step-by-step guidelines to successfully design, conduct and analyze a program of customer visits.  Specifically, it will prepare you how to select the right customers, ask the right kinds of questions and uncover needs that customers don't know how to vocalize. In an economic climate plagued by fickle customers, fierce competition and product proliferation, you cannot afford not to master the art of conducting successful customer visits.
