Most customer programs are driven by insights derived from a limited set of channels that no longer reflect where and how customers talk. In the years when marketing, sales and service management theory were being developed, the main channels for gathering customer insight were research based.
Today the smartest companies are asking why don't we use real-time voice of the customer to augment our more traditional approaches to insight generation? Why not start listening to actual promoters and detractors rather than just their facsimile?

When you think of the Internet, don’t think of Mack
trucks full of widgets destined for distributorships,
whizzing by countless billboards.
Think of a table for two.
