Key Takeaways:

"If you are going to ask for feedback, decide to do something with it." - Paul Copcutt

"The big lesson with regards to this is that every interaction that somebody has with you is a reflection of your brand. Whether that is a survey, an email, a phone call, a social media post, a blog article, a networking interaction, a phone conversation, whatever it is, is a reflection of your brand, good or bad." - Paul Copcutt

"If people are taking the time to give you feedback, they want to do it from a place of help; it's not there to necessarily criticize you. If they are giving you negative feedback, it's still because they care enough that they've taken time to give you that feedback; you asked for it, as well. So use it." - Paul Copcutt

"Even if the feedback is negative, even if it is something you're not going to do anything about or you think the customer is wrong, you still want to think about the tone you're going to go back to them with. And ensure that you're not damaging the customer or client relationship potentially further than it is already damaged." - Paul Copcutt

"Decide what you're going to do and make sure you're following up." - Paul Copcutt
