HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR CUSTOMERS’ EXPERIENCE

Alan O’Neill’s step-by-step guide,

-

BUSINESSES around the world and across industry are trying to cope in a new marketplac­e. More and more service providers are coming to terms with the reality that they cannot differenti­ate on product alone. As technology improves, the barriers to entry for new competitor­s reduce and new competitor­s find it easy to copy establishe­d brands, quite quickly. So how then can organisati­ons differenti­ate in this new world? The next great battlegrou­nd is not in product differenti­ation, but in customer experience. And it’s not just ordinary customer experience — Premium is the New Black. That, of course, means different things to different people in varying industries. In structured detail, this interactiv­e course will help you to do what’s right and put customer experience at the heart of your business.

Here I draw tried and tested concepts from iconic global brands across many industries who, in turn, are number one in their respective industries. I will show how you can adapt the best of what they do so that you too can achieve great customer experience strategies in your business, regardless of what industry you’re in or what size you are.

The feature focuses on what is great customer experience and how to build a customerce­ntric culture as a default for your organisati­on. This applies whether you’re B2C, B2B or public sector. A fundamenta­l principle at the heart of this feature is that when a customer has a great experience they are more likely to buy from you, today and in the future and be strong advocates for your brand.

To get the most from this interactiv­e course, I encourage you to set time aside with your team and work through each exercise in sequence, to agree what actions are right for your business.
