For any knuckle-draggers out there, CX isn’t just some Millennial, hipster, spiced chai latte, altruistic, fluffy nonsense. McKinsey research found that companies who provide a superior, low effort experience realised a 10-15 per cent increase in revenue and a 20 per cent increase in customer satisfaction. More satisfied customers are easier to rebook and upsell. Greater numbers of advocates provide powerful, free promotion. Businesses become more competitive and staff become more engaged in a positive working environment.
The upsides are obvious – and yet the evidence suggests that the experience of the exhibitor is far from positive. There could be many reasons – here are just six.

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?

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?
