Specific actions that you should take to be more customer-oriented
To build a customer-oriented culture, you must understand your customers and their needs. This involves collecting customer data from disparate sources and having a 360-degree view of your customers. You should derive insights from this data and put them into action.
The key components of customer orientation include:
Understanding what your customers need
Listening to your customers
Considering customer impact at every interaction point
Giving customers what they consider valuable
Getting sales and customer service to collaborate
