Tis the season for customer feedback

Online traffic levels are at an all-time high around the holidays. However, depending on the performance of your website and/or mobile app, this boost in traffic can bring about both positive and negative results. On one hand it offers up the chance to shine and be there for all of your customers’ holiday shopping needs. However, should something go wrong, then that’s also a large audience of holiday shoppers who may get irritated and decide to do their shopping somewhere else.

Hence the need for customer feedback. This post runs you through all of the reasons you should be collecting customer feedback to keep your ecommerce site up to par with the expectations of your customers.
