1、REWIRING YOUR CX DNAAUTHORLance WebbThe foundations of a winning customer strategyMay 2023IPSOS VIEWS“Failing to plan is planning to fail”as Benjamin Franklin is supposed to have said.And today,this couldnt be more true.Customer desires and expectations are constantly changing.If you dont have a pla

3、ate home,or do a full rip and replace remodel,you can begin by knocking down walls or even by simply replacing outdated carpet as a step towards your dream home;incremental progress can get you real results.But ultimately to deliver on the dream,a vision is required,as is the plan to get there,along
4、 with an understanding of the steps that really matter and,of course,a budget.Just like creating a new home,building a customer strategy is a multi-faceted,multi-phased,and often hugely complex undertaking.But ultimately,if done well,it will deliver a return on your investment;a Return on your CXInv

7、l customer strategy.1.SET YOURSELF UP FOR CX SUCCESS EXECUTIVE COMMITMENT In an ideal world,customer-centric culture and business practices begin at the top,with the CEO driving the focus.Indeed,if the CEO is not leading the CX conversation,then a company will struggle to become a true CX leader and
8、 reap the related benefits.But in the real world,that kind of commitment is rare,especially when revenues dip,competition surges and shareholders groan.While challenging,it is the explicit role of CX professionals to build a compelling business case that aligns with and supports executive and organi
9、sational goals.Only when the C-suite see the undeniable connection between CX success and bottom-line results,will investment and essential support follow.DEDICATED CX LEADERSHIP Dedicated CX leadership is needed to build an organisations Experience Management(XM)muscle and to sustain it.A defined C
10、X leader role and dedicated team endorsed by the C-suite is essential.Having such a team charged with defining the CX vision and strategy,collaborating with the broader organisation to create alignment,and then holding stakeholders accountable,is a key driver of CX success.Its imperative that CX isn
11、t just another part of someones job,but their entire job.With this focused view,its easier to identify and act on areas of opportunity,reduce costs and friction points,and improve customer journeys.We asked over 1,000 Customer Experience(CX)leaders across the globe about their key priorities.Results
12、 show that the top three priorities for CX leaders over the next 12 months will be:1.Develop or refine the CX strategic roadmap2.Closing the brand promise and CX delivery gap3.Delivery of personalised customer experiencesSource:Ipsos CX Global Voices study.2 3REWIRING YOUR CX DNA|IPSOS VIEWS2IPSOS V

18、only 34%of CX professionals can point to such a formal CX governance structure,where a CX Governance Board has the authority to allocate resources to CX activity.2CX initiatives fail to deliver when companies operate in silos,whether those are departmental silos,data silos,listening silos,insights a

23、rough assessment of the current state is required.In order to think systematically about current and future capabilities around CX,it helps to understand what a great CX culture looks like.In Ipsos CX Maturity Assessment,there are seven core competencies which underpin leading CX cultures,against wh

27、e lasting impressions.While some interactions will certainly carry greater meaning for the customer,the basic premise of seeing each interaction as an opportunity to reinforce a customers relationship shouldnt be taken for granted.Mapping your customers journeys,including their functional and emotio
28、nal needs,will help you understand how customers want to interact with your company,and what the ideal experience should be along their journeys.Brands need to understand the moments where they have the potential to create powerful positive memories.To do this,they need to:Have a deep understanding
29、of the entireexperience a customer has before,duringand after interacting with the brand.Identify those moments in the customerjourney that have the potential to be mostmemorable.Understand the CX Forces3 that driveemotional attachment and relationshipstrength.Ensure that Customer Experience is clos

31、osA CX vision shouldnt just be wordplay,it should be unique to your organisation and align with,and support,your brands overall vision,promise,and guiding values.A CX vision should be a compelling description of the ideal future state that everyone is working towards,and one that engages and excites
32、 both customers and team members.Having articulated this ideal future state,CX and business leaders can then formulate a strategy to achieve it,along with a coordinated set of tactics and action plans.INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL COMMUNICATION A customer vision and strategy is only as good as the effective
33、ness with which its communicated throughout the organisation,and to the world at large.Craft your vision and strategy,share it internally,then shout loudly about it externally.A communication plan is a vital part of the change management plan.Internal:Ongoing and proactivecommunication regarding exp

50、ers the option to provide feedback through one channel,email or web survey.When thinking about your listening strategy,consider all of the avenues your customers use to interact with you and give them the option to leave feedback through mobile,video,apps and social channels(e.g.,Facebook,WhatsApp,T
51、witter,Google).Where you listen matters,as it can ensure your business has a more complete view into how customers experience your brand.Are you only collecting feedback from the in-store experience when customers prefer to shop your brand online?Are you missing a key opportunity to collect non-purc
52、haser feedback?Focusing on the touchpoints that matter most to the customer,and most significantly impact your business,will deliver insights that will allow your teams to deliver a more seamless and impactful experience to your customers.And when are you listening?As well as having the appropriate
53、touchpoint listening posts in place along customer journeys so called CX transactional research you need CX relationship research to understand the end-to-end relationship with your customers;how you stack up,including against the competition,and to get a hold on what really matters.THE RIGHT TECHNO
54、LOGY SaaS platforms are table stakes in Voice of Customer and Employee programmes.The market is overwhelmed with demos and slick talk tracks.On the surface,technologies can appear to do the same thing(signal capture,text analytics,closed loop,etc.).Fundamentally,selecting the technology thats right
55、for you comes down to the maturity of your organisation and where you are at in your own CX journey.So how do you inspect under the hood and ensure the platform you select stands up to scrutiny?There are three main considerations:1.Functionality:what do you need todayvs.whats on the roadmap?Make sur
