  • Leading a Customer-Centric Operation

    If ten years ago you had invested $100 in a fund made up of the most customer-centric companies in the U.S. (according to the American Customer Satisfaction Index), your investment today would be worth over $650. A similar investment in the S&P 500 would net you only about $50 over ten years. Operations that put customers in the center of planning and execution attract the best employees and retain the best customers. They are repeatedly listed on Fortune Magazine's "100 Best Companies to Work For." Chip Bell has worked with many of the most customer-centric operations--Ritz-Carlton Hotels, USAA, AMEX, Marriott, True Value, Harley-Davidson--and shares the secrets of what makes them so successful. This provocative and powerful keynote can be tailored for first-line supervisors to senior executives. It provides the insights and tools for creating experiences that turn satisfied customers into loyal advocates.
  • Customers as Partners: Building Profitable Professional Relationships That Last

    Distinctive service in the professional or B2B world can be vastly different than the approach used by a merchant to win a consumer. For the business-to-business world and/or the space of sophisticated products or specialized expertise, the path to success has become a long-term, profitable relationship, not just a glitzy experience. When those you serve feel like valued partners in a power-free relationship, their expectations are more realistic, they are more forgiving of mistakes, more ardent advocates, and their economic investment in the firm or organization deepens. This keynote is particularly relevant for B2B organizations concerned with disintermediation, disruption and the erosion of the distribution channel in favor of direct relationships with consumers. Even in the B2B world with its extreme price-sensitivity and the watchful eye of purchasing czars, the quality of the relationship has become a key component in how value is defined. Based on his international best-selling books Customers as Partners and Dance Lessons: Six Steps to Great Partnerships in Business and Life, Dr. Chip Bell's insightful, fresh program provides audiences with provocative, yet practical tools, tips and techniques for building profitable relationships that last.
  • Seriously Sparkly Service: Making Innovative Service Profoundly Remarkable

    Recall the absolutely best customer service experience of your entire life. What were the features of this profoundly remarkable memory? Today's customers do not talk (remark) or tweet about good service; only experiences they find unique, special, and ingenious. Research shows value-added (taking what customers expect and adding more) will not provide a solid ROI. But, value-unique (delivering an unexpected, compelling surprise) creates animated advocates and fuels bottom line impact. Based on Bell's newest bestselling book, Kaleidoscope: Delivering Innovative Service That Sparkles, this high-energy session provides the tools, tips and techniques for leading and delivering innovative service that sparkles.
  • Innovative Service: Strategies for Creating Growth and Bottom Line Impact

    What do Google, Netflix, Apple, Uber and Amazon have in common other than rapid growth and amazing profits? They all are considered among the most innovative companies, perpetually seek ingenious ways to delight their customers. Remarkable service for today's picky, fickle and vocal customers requires a constant and deliberate pursuit of innovative ways to make the customers' experiences sparkly, but consistent; enriching, but profitable. Since value-added has gotten way too expensive; smart organizations focus on value-unique—novel, not just more. Based on his national best-selling books The 9½ Principles of Innovative Service and Sprinkles: Creating Awesome Experiences Through Innovative Service this lively, provocative session draws on Dr. Chip Bell's 25+ years working with many of the world's leading brands to help them stay ahead of their competition by maintaining best-in-class customer experience strategies.
