We’ve all had poor user or customer service experiences. When you provide feedback, via a survey, a post, a tweet, etc, do you just rip the company and the experience, or do you share why it was poor and your idea(s) on how to improve it? Often times those who receive the feedback are aware of the issue and without ideas, your complaint makes you just another complainer. But complain and throw in a few ideas, from the simple to the elaborate, and you’ve just become an improver. You might be surprised at how many companies haven’t thought of a way to fix the issue that you’re complaining about and your idea is just what they need. Finally, when you complain, be sure to include specific details such as an order number, or specific product that failed, or time/date of service failure. “Your service sucks” is not actionable by the company. “You sucked on order #123456 because it didn’t include everything I ordered” is not only actionable, it also has a high chance of being corrected quickly because the company knows clearly what to do to fix it.
