CX professionals may not like to admit it, but one of the benefits of a low customer satisfaction score is plenty of room for improvement and potential easy wins. But what do you do if your customer satisfaction is already high?
For Shaun Wilton, Deb Heaphy and the rest of the CX team at Carsales.com, being at the top of their game is no reason to rest on their laurels. Working with technology from Zendesk, the team has dug deeper into customer insights to create a voice-of-customer (VoC) approach that seeks to deliver the best outcome for customers in all instants.

Most retail marketers would argue that the secret to effective sales is creating an outstanding customer experience. From investing in UX design and customer relationship management software to training customer service staff, frontline marketers know that every consumer touch point is critical to creating a compelling brand experience.
Nonetheless, all too many retailers overlook one critical feature that affects all of these touch points: comprehensive, digestible product information.

Customer experience is one of the hottest buzzwords in business these days. Companies are pouring more resources than ever before into building a strong customer experience, and many expect to soon compete on experience more than price or quality. Today increasingly we’re seeing research that companies that invest in customer experience boast a higher stock price. In fact according to a portfolio of publicly traded companies drawn from the top 20% of brands in Forrester’s Customer Experience Index – these companies that invest in customer experience had higher stock price growth and higher total returns than a similar portfolio of companies drawn from the bottom 20% of brands.

Chart of the day: the more senior someone is in a business, the more they believe that they offer a good customer experience (CX).
The Customer Experience industry report 2018 by usertesting.com has found that executive level professionals and those who work in CX management think they have a good CX, whilst UXers, product manager, and researchers believe their CX is less good. Executives may be far too confident about their CX which leads the report and me to suggest that the more senior managers could be less aware of the real CX in their business.

The e-commerce website is a critically important part of the customer experience; for many customers, it will be the only way of interacting with the company. If the e-commerce website delivers a poor user experience (UX), visitors will click off the site or abandon the shopping cart without giving the company’s customer care team a chance to intervene.
Therefore, it is imperative for an e-commerce website to meet all UX standards. (UX standards apply to website design and can be considered a subset of CX.) These are key areas to execute properly to ensure that all customers have a positive experience on the site, whether or not they make a purchase.

Creating or enhancing your website can take a lot of time and effort, especially when you factor in user feedback. The process involves lots of emailing back and forth, revisions to pages, and meetings among designers and developers as well as various other teams within the company. Well, at least that’s how it used to be done. Luckily, today there are various types of visual feedback tools on the market that enable web designers and developers to establish and optimise their websites.

In the U.K, the number of Chief Customer Officers across all industries increased from 14 in 2014 to 90 in 2017; half of those roles were created in the last 15 months. The average tenure also lengthened from 23 months in 2009 to 34.5 months in 2013 but it still has the shortest lifespan among all C-suite executives, according to research conducted in 2010 by the Chief Customer Officer Council.
Recently, I was talking to a client who had been approached about moving from one area of her business to another. The proposed role was as Head of CX. Although she came from a customer facing sales environment, she sought guidance on how she might hit the ground running if she decided to take up this new role. She was concerned that inevitably there would be pressure on her to deliver results quickly and make an impact, despite not having previous experience of the role at this level.

There is an uncomfortable and usually unspoken tension in the age of digital marketing: when we talk about “delivering a superior customer experience,” it's defined by the marketer, relative to business outcomes, not by the consumer, relative to their preferences.
Put another way, improvements to customer experience (CX) are measured by business metrics, not by consumer happiness. Yes, there’s a relationship between them, but at the end of the day, if conversions drop on the website, for example, that web experience will be revised.
