Customer insights are a collection of trends in consumer behavior, data, and feedback that helps businesses deeply understand their customers and their purchasing decisions.
It’s important to collect quantitative and qualitative data from sources like website metrics and social media mentions, as well as market research and customer analytics, to form conclusive customer insights.

Customer Centricity
Customer centricity is the ability of people in an organization to understand customers' situations, perceptions, and expectations. Customer centricity demands that the customer is the focal point of all decisions related to delivering products, services and experiences to create customer satisfaction, loyalty and advocacy.
Companies in all industries are ditching traditional business-driven and product-driven strategies as they're starting to embrace the idea of customer centricity. Although being company-driven, product-driven or sales-driven is natural, no longer can brands afford to think only about what’s good for the company without considering the impact on the customer.
Customer centricity is often seen as a catch-all for ideas like customer satisfaction, customer experience and customer feedback, but being truly customer-centric is about more than that. It’s about more than just making your customers happy. And it’s not enough to assume you know what your customers need.
So, what’s it all about?
Above all, customer centricity means putting the customer at the core of your business.
Being customer-centric means putting the customer at the forefront of every single decision your company makes.
