The irony of technology is that it’s often marketed as customer experience management, yet it inevitably creates its own set of customer experience snafus. Examples I’ve heard recently include: “You’ll have to log-in to our other site” or “That mobile app isn’t available for the type of account you have” or “That went to the fax machine at our national site”. Is it possible to prevent most of these customer experience hassles?

Customer experience value is seldom quantified from the customer’s viewpoint. We explore it through customer journey mapping, customer advisory boards, surveys, user experience testing, and so forth. Even so, we still may not be sizing it up from their perspective.

Is “customer experience strategy” like the Wheel of Fortune spinner? The diversity of what it is in practice among companies today kind of feels that way. Ask 10 companies what their customer experience strategy is and you’ll likely get 10 very different combinations of alphabet soup*: CJM, CRM, VoC, UX, FCR, NPS, AI, self-service, digital marketing, word-of-mouth, customer success, retention programs, loyalty programs, and so forth. Plug these into the spinner and see your fortune. More importantly, are these strategies or tactics?
