  • Brand Loyalty - how to earn it and keep it_Part 1 of 2_by Joanne Z. Tan_Episode 20, Season 2
    May 5 2024
    Earning loyal and devoted customers or followers is hard work. Even harder is keeping their long term loyalty. When your customers buy repeatedly and exclusively from you, over the long term, you have earned their brand loyalty based on faith and trust, which is the ultimate testament to your accomplishment, whether you offer products or services.

  • Why a Brand Audit Can Save a Company, and What, When, and How?_by Joanne Tan_Episode 19, Season 2
    Apr 10 2024
    An out-of-touch brand is a weak brand that soon leads to decreased sales and a shrinking market share. A disconnected brand threatens your business survival. If your brand is starting to feel stale and irrelevant, it may be too little, too late if you wait until your sales are going down to start a comprehensive brand audit. Doing the audit takes time. It takes even longer to implement changes based on the insights from the audit. How much time do you have at hand while your sales keep falling?

    Getting timely insights from a proactive brand audit has tremendous ROI: A comprehensive brand audit can optimize your brand performance by identifying growth opportunities with current and new customers, revealing changes in customer expectations and new ways to meet them. Based on the data from a brand audit, leaders can adjust brand messaging to better resonate with employees and customers, reposition your brand to be more visible to those who need your solutions, and accomplish radical differentiation in the vast competitive landscape of similar products and services, in order to maintain growth momentum.

    WHAT is a brand audit?

    WHEN do you need one?

    How is it done?

  • Natural Language Processing and LLM: They are as Dumb or Intelligent as Your LANGUAGE_by Joanne Z. Tan_Episode 18, Season 2
    Mar 31 2024
    AI is as dumb or smart as human's command of language instruction, since NLP (natural language processing) & LLM (large language model) depend on data, and data is input with human language. To improve AI's level of intelligence, we humans must improve our command of language and thinking. How to do that?

  • What Is AI Experience Design (AIXD)? Why AI Voice and IVR are Driving Customers Nuts? _ Joanne Tan_Episode 15, Season 2
    Mar 9 2024
    Saving cost at the expense of customer frustration is a losing game, even for an iconic brand. The problem in AI experience design (AIXD) is the culprit for bad customer experience everywhere: too many customers cannot get a live agent to answer their simple questions, after calling and “talking” to an AI voice used on IVR (interactive voice response), and they often just give up in frustration and helplessness.

    "Is this the best AI can get? Or is it the worst?

    Actually, it is fairly easy to change this contact center nightmare: redesign the way AI answers the calls in a customer-centric way.

    The invisible “hand” and the hidden mind behind the design of this AI customer experience is “either-customers-fit-into-my-categories-or-goodbye”.

    The problem is: Whose priority governs the AI experience design (“XD”)? Xfinity’s current design is all from the point of Xfinity’s convenience, not customers’. There are issues not so cut and dried, squarely fitting into the four categories the AI voice keeps repeating to the callers. Why can’t they simply add a “none of the above” category? And why didn’t Xfinity honor its promise of “connecting to a live agent, any time”, but instead forcing texting or other virtual choices onto a customer who repeatedly asked for a live agent?

    Xfinity AI imposes its over-simplified choices onto customers, at the expense of their various and nuanced needs.

    It is not human centered, not user friendly, not customer centric.

    But it saves Xfinity operational expenses, … or not! "

  • Fight Deep Fake Videos with a Simple Disclaimer: This is a Genuine Video!_by Joanne Z. Tan_Episode 14, Season 2
    Mar 4 2024
    To differentiate Genuine Videos from Deepfakes, start with a simple disclaimer

    When seeing is not believing, when truth and trust are replaced by falsehood and distrust, the foundation for fact-based decision making is like a rug being pulled out from under our feet. This is a real threat to democracy and civilized societies.

    What are you waiting for? For the government to step in and regulate? Even if it happens eventually, it will be too little, too late.

    Doing nothing means you are waiting for deepfakes to take over your right and ability to access truthful information - you are allowing deepfakes to further mislead yourself and humanity.

    We at 10 Plus Brand, from today on, will proudly and prominently label every video we produce with this simple statement: “This is a Genuine Video. No deepfake of any kind has been used.” In fact, since we at 10 Plus Brand have never used any deepfake for any videos bearing the 10+ logo on all of our brand promotional videos produced for our clients, our own vlogs and interviews, etc, the 10+ logo connotes completely Genuine Videos.

    I ask all video makers in the world to do the same: Add a one-sentence “disclaimer” at either the beginning or the end of each video, in text or with audio: “This is a genuine video. No deepfake of any kind has been used.”
