Founder and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Amazon, Jeff Bezos famously said, “Your brand is what other people say about you when you’re not in the room.” Warren Buffet, chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway cautioned, “It takes 20 years to build a reputation and about five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you’ll do things differently.”
Rick Crump, founder and CEO of KineticXperience, drove both those points home during his presentation “Advice From An Industry Expert: Introducing Customer Experience To A Clinical Setting: The KineticXperience” at the 2019 OPEN MINDS Technology and Innovation Institute in Philadelphia during which he encouraged health and human service executives to reassess consumer touchpoints to ensure good customer service.

When budgeting for CX, a key question is how to determine the business value. Seventy-five percent of the marketing leaders responding in this year’s report said they had calculated the business impact of improving CX, a figure which had only been 48 percent two years ago.
