“Understanding” means, e.g., “taking account of preferences, purchase history, and other provided information.”
84% said they would no longer buy from a company that failed to “understand.”

A strategic inflection point

“Strategic inflections can come from anywhere: new technologies, new competition, new regulations, new customer values and habits, etc. – anything that has a significant impact on the business itself or the industry as a whole.”

§ Digital disruptions
§ Era of empowered consumers
§ Basic shift in the business environment
§ Impacts every firm, regardless of industry
Impact: Failure to provide superior customer experiences leads to irrelevance and business

“We can’t afford to be thinking about creating content for any one platform. We can’t be thinking about crafting a website. Instead, we have to think about how are we going to put more effort into crafting the description of our content, how are we going to put more effort into explaining all the different bits of our assets. And what that’s going to allow us to do is reuse our content more effectively and get more value out of it.” – Nic Newman, BBC

Omnichannel CEM needs content with:
STRUCTURE § MRU (“minimum reasonable
unit,” re Deane Barker) § Discrete, flexible, agile, freely
combinable, reusable experience assets
42
PURITY § WYSIWYG? Seriously?
§ Create messages, narrative elements, “engagement legos” – not pages, print, or any other format

Can “CX” be “M”d?
Source: h@p://www.bedeckhome.com/sloane-‐towels-‐2-‐colours.html
§ Customer experience (CX) is how customers perceive the totality of a their interactions with a company or brand. Note that in this definition, "customer" refers equally to prospects – those who have not yet conducted a transaction with the company – and that the “totality” of interactions includes all channels and touch points over the entire life of the relationship.
§ As a business discipline, customer experience management (CEM) refers to the strategies,
processes, skills, technologies, and commitments that aim to ensure positive and competitively outstanding customer experiences.
§ With reference to technology, CEM includes the array of software tools that organizations
use to create, store, deploy, analyze, and optimize the aggregations of digital assets that make up the user experiences on digital channels.

Unpacking CX and CEM
@$m_walters
#CEM means: Judging CEM tech and practices
from the customer’s (ad)vantage point.

Johanna Maria Christina Snel Three vectors of experience § Environment – The thing/product
experienced § Encounter – The interaction between the product and person § Effect – A person’s response to the encounter
Source: h@p://books.google.com/books/about/For_the_Love_of_Experience.html?id=u98ZkgEACAAJ
You create experiences (environments) that are experienced (interaction) and form an experience (subjective perception).
52
In short:
We say that #CEM is about the effect (perception), but we
should realize that it is about the environment (product).
(Because the things we offer to be experienced can be managed, but the reaction cannot be.)
53
Customer insight + brand story = experience assets
Experience assets + interaction = customer perception = CX
54
#CEM means: Managing the delta between your
intent and the customer’s perception.
55
56
You can’t do it alone.
Source: h@p://silence-‐without.blogspot.de/2010_12_01_archive.html
“CEM is so new, hard, and complex that nearly all organizations must draw on third-party service providers to provide or supplement skills in research, strategy, design, technology, operations, and much more. In short, service provider partners increasingly provide an indispensable ingredient in any CEM endeavor.”
57
§ Touchpoints (web site, app, call center) are too specific
§ Customer lifecycle is too unpredictable
§ Customer journey is just right – it combines end-to-end experience with clear outcomes and team responsibilities
58
Where to start?
@$m_walters
59
Selected journeys (McKinsey)
§ Identify customer goals/needs § Map the journey § Determine/assign responsibilities § Measure current effectiveness/satisfaction § Identify flows and gaps for social support § Organize and/or network team(s) for complete
journey § Refine and optimize § Learn, repeat, expand 60
The road to CEM reality begins tomorrow (or anyway, after the party)
