What it actually means to put the customer first

Why customer experience matters

“Customer experience is not a technology problem—it’s a culture problem. Focusing on customer experience management may be the single most important investment a brand can make in today’s competitive business climate. Companies that invest in customer experience boast a higher stock price and higher total returns .”

(Forbes, July 2018)

What it is

  • Every interaction an individual has with your business and its products / services
  • How people feel about your company overall – their emotional and psychological connection with your brand 

But it’s not the same as customer service.

Customer service describes the interactions a customer has when asking for advice or getting help with a product / service.

What it involves

Customer experience covers the following:

  1. Design & functionality: how your product / service works
  2. Brand perception: the feelings your brand creates for your customer
  3. Customer service: the points at which your customers interact with you to get help

“What we actually buy is the experience, not just the product or service. The customer experience is all encompassing, and emerges from the work of many distinct disciplines.” 

(Matt Watkinson, The 10 Principles Behind Great Customer Experiences)

 

Why it matters

“Customer experience is not a technology problem—it’s a culture problem.” (Robert Tas)

Customers expect and demand much more than they’ve ever done before. Those companies who prioritise the customer experience stand out from the competition. And those who do it really well do it through their people.

So make your employees your top priority and your customers will feel the benefits.
