The Benefits and Importance of Customer Satisfaction
The great Neil Patel wrote this article which we compiled into an eBook for our clients and audience.
I can’t get no satisfaction!
According to Neil, aside from hearing it as the chorus in a rock n’ roll classic, it’s a phrase you never want to come from your customers. No customer satisfaction = no retention. No retention = shrinking customer base. And bad word-of-mouth. And plummeting profits. Yes, you need a great product. Yes, you need a competitive price. But the future belongs to the experience around your product or service, through each stage of your sales funnel.
So, my friends, dig into this eBook, download it, and put some or all of the great information it contains to use to grow your business.
The Tried and True Laws of UX
Posted: August 2018
A Note from Maryle: This article and the accompanying Infographic represent just a few things that a knowledgeable, committed website designer must take into consideration when designing a client’s website.
“Remember when your mother warned you not to run down the stairs because you could fall and hurt yourself? Or when you held your palm over a candle’s flame and started feeling the burn? The “laws of UX” are similar—they are cause and effect relationships where one event (the cause) makes another event happen (the effect). Whether a designer acknowledges them or not, the “laws” rule and operate—and will affect the effectiveness of a design.”

Taken collectively, observing these laws of UX can help guide a digital designer toward creating the most effective design for any given product. Even though they are not actual laws, but rather tried and true cause and effect relationships, UX designers should nevertheless, take notice of the driving forces behind the laws of UX in order to design superior products.
