How to get customer feedback

Feedback provides an opportunity to gain insights about a person's personal and professional actions. Without feedback, we will move in the same direction without realizing our shortcomings. With feedback, we can incorporate outside suggestions and improve accordingly.

Feedback

<ul>
<li>How happy are you with our services? Provide some sliding scale (1 to 10) or a simple choice option, such as happy or unhappy. </li>
<li>What can we do better? Customers may help you identify areas that need to be addressed and that you couldn’t see yourself.</li>
<li>Do you have any additional feedback or comments for us?</li>
</ul>

Customer feedback questions

<ul>
<li> Real-time feedback.</li>
<li>Performance feedback. It is more formal because it tends to be scheduled and covers positive and constructive evaluation.</li>
<li>360-degree feedback. It comes from a combination of people connected to the employee, for example, direct reports, peers, managers, other potential raters.</li>
</ul>

Different styles of feedback

<ul>
<li>Positive vs. negative. Positive feedback confirms that someone is taking good action, while negative feedback shows what actions need to be corrected.</li>
<li>Formal vs. informal. Formal feedback is given on a set schedule, and informal feedback is short and follows after an action or event.</li>
<li>Annual vs. monthly</li>
<li>Verbal vs. written</li>
<li>Manager vs. peer</li>
</ul>

Types of feedback

It is essential to identify the employee's strengths, weaknesses, and potential trouble areas to give an idea of how to provide positive and critical feedback, and to what extent.
<ul>
<li>Timely: Unspoken issues can worsen over time, but by providing quick feedback can mitigate the issue early.</li>
<li>Specific: Feedback needs to relate to behavior and you should communicate how that behavior impacted the person involved.</li>
<li>Balanced: If feedback must be imbalanced, it should weigh more to the positive. Be intentional about regular positive feedback.</li>
<li>Actionable: “When you do [action taken], it [impact of the action]. Could you [desired action]?”</li>
</ul>If an employee is surprised by the feedback, then the manager has not done the job of providing regular feedback before the formal feedback session.

Employee feedback

Customer feedback is essential to improving your business. You'll not only figure out how to improve your offerings but also get insights on ways to communicate the value of your product better and even clarify your ideal customer.

Customer feedback

It can be difficult to let a coworker know they've done something wrong. It is generally best to give constructive feedback directly and in private.

<li>Remain positive and genuine.</li>
<li>Motivate your peers by offering support and encouragement.</li>
<li>Don't patronize by using compliment sandwiches.</li>
<li>Comment on your peer's behavior, not their personality. </li>
<li>Assess whether you're the best suited to give the feedback or if someone else will have a better positive impact.</li>
<li>Be open and invite feedback from your peers.</li>
</ul>

Peer feedback

Effective feedback is: <ul><li>Objective. Don't let your personal feelings get in the way.</li>

<li>Constructive. Give respect and show that you have their best interests in mind.</li>
<li>Actionable. Feedback must include immediate next steps.</li>
