Customer Code: Creating a Company Customers Love

Customers are a bigger influence on your growth than marketing or sales alone could ever be. But too often, companies ignore or even mistreat their customers — trading their loyalty for short-term gains.

We wanted to know what customers in the modern world really want and expect from companies. What makes for a delightful customer experience? We asked thousands of them and compiled their responses into a new north star for our company. We call it: Customer Code.
