John and Jess talk about how the best customer service companies in the world are so consistent in the experience they deliver because they are brilliant at the basics.

The best Never & Always are going to be the ones you create with your team in a workshop-style format. Examples of Never & Always that you can apply to your organization. Never point, always show them. Never say no, always focus on what you can do. Never say, "I don't know," always say, "Let me find out." Never accept fine or okay, always have excellence as the standard. The two words that are going to boost your business by 12% and increase your perceived value.

041: How do Apple, Starbucks, and Southwest Outperform the Rest of Their Industries Regardless of the Economy? Here's How!

Chief Revolution Officer John DiJulius of the DiJulius Group answers this question: Why do companies like Apple, American Express, Tesla, Chick-fil-A, Starbucks, Amazon, Southwest, and Zappos always outperform the rest of their industry regardless of the economy? It is the service, stupid! Today, discover how one company increased revenue to over $2 million a month by improving customer experience. What you will learn: How a small number of companies have now redefined what customers expect from brands. Most products and services today are of similar quality. The differentiator of products and their functionalities no longer plays a role in the customer's purchase decision. In a time of uncertainty, there are only 3 certainties in life: Death, Taxes, and Customer Experience. Most CEOs fast-talk a commitment to customer experience but slow-walk execution. Research has shown that in past recessions, companies that invest in and deliver superior customer experience during a downturn emerge, producing shareholder returns three times larger than average. A study analyzes the stock market performance of the top-rated companies in customer experience versus the bottom-rated during the period of the last U.S. recession from 2007 to 2009. The worst CX companies had a negative 57% ROI; many of them didn't survive. The stock market struggled at a negative 16%. The best CX companies posted a positive 6%. In order to know what victory looks like, you must have an ROX (Return on eXperience) dashboard. The ROX dashboard should have 3-4 Key Performance Indicators directly tied to the level of customer experience delivered from every customer-facing employee and department. How a mortgage company increased revenue to over 2 million dollars a month by improving their customer experience.
