Customer Signals Are The Hidden Language of Emotion
What Are Customer Signals?
Every time a customer interacts with your brand online, in-store, or through service channels they’re sending signals. These signals go far beyond words. They include:
-
What they say (language and word choice)
-
How they say it (tone, pitch, pace)
-
What they do (behaviors, clicks, pauses, actions)
-
How they move (posture, gait, facial expressions)
We refer to all of this verbal and non-verbal cues as customer signals. They are the raw, unfiltered expressions of customer emotion, intent, and experience.
Why Capturing Signals Matters
Surveys are slow. Dashboards are incomplete. And customers are less willing than ever to fill out forms or share how they really feel. But the truth is they’re already telling you everything you need to know.
Capturing signals allows you to:
-
Decode emotion in real time
-
Identify pain points before they escalate
-
Understand unspoken needs and desires
-
Deliver more empathetic and personalized experiences
Brands that listen beyond feedback outperform their competitors because they act with greater precision, speed, and confidence.
