Digitizing the core business

-

that a process that normally took two days throughout the full production line now took about a day.

You can imagine how much savings that were! The organizati­on went on to post approximat­ely 30percent more profitabil­ity and reduce its costs dramatical­ly over the period of about 10 to 15percent. And this ensured that the organizati­on was able to invest the surplus money into improving its operations. On the other side of the horizon, we’ve got an improved customer experience.

The example that we showed earlier about the school that we worked with shows how one solution can fix both the issues around operationa­l efficiency as well as those around customer experience. Overall, customer experience explains how the client feels after the wholesome experience with your brand. How do customers feel after interactin­g with it? Do they feel more energized? Is it easy? Is it simple to use?

How is the process throughout?

In doing this, we worked with another company a couple of years ago where we helped them improve their customer experience across their different branches by creating very simple, seamless solutions. The thinking behind that was how do we make sure our customers find this process as simple as possible. By using a couple of different solutions, we were able to achieve this.

As we said, the fact is customers are no longer patient with our businesses. It’s up to the organizati­on to ensure that the customer experience is seamless from the beginning all the way to the end. As a business, it’s critical that you digitize the core business to ensure that this is done seamlessly and efficientl­y.
