Customer experience plays an important, if not the most important role in the success of any business. Nearly all companies (89%) believe that customer experience will be their primary basis for competition. How do you stand in that competition? Customer experience management brings discipline to this somewhat vague and soft area: by establishing a systematic process for collecting, analyzing, and acting on customer feedback, you’ll be able to improve customer experience altogether.

As marketers, we tend to focus most of our efforts on acquiring new customers. Although customer acquisition is certainly vital to future growth, retention also plays an essential role in a successful marketing strategy. After you’ve worked so hard to earn those customers, it’s vital to keep them happy by building customer loyalty and fostering long-term relationships.

What is a Seamless Customer Experience A seamless customer experience is one where the customer interacts with a company in a smooth, effortless manner. The customer feels that their needs are understood, meaning the company is able to anticipate the customer's needs and proactively offer solutions. For example, a company that offers personalized product recommendations based on the customer's purchase history is demonstrating an understanding of the customer's needs.

Before the digital age, customer experience in retail was a completely different world. Success depended on creating an excellent physical environment for shoppers. Businesses focused on product arrangement, purchasing/return processes, and employee helpfulness. These elements, and others, are still significant today, of course. Where and how they take place has changed, of course.

Why do customers choose one brand over the other when both offer similar products in quality and price? Why do customers cling to expensive brands when they can get one with the same functionality for cheaper? Loyalty and brand image may seem the obvious answers, but did you know that these eventually tie to customer emotions? Emotions create preferences in customers’ minds, which in turn drive them to take action.

A few weeks ago, we compared manual agent evaluation vs. software-supported agent scoring vs. automated call scoring for quality assurance. The conclusion was that while manual scoring usually leads to more accurate results than auto scoring, it is very labor- and time-intensive, resulting in only 1-3% of the calls being manually evaluated. Therefore, scoring 100% of the calls using automatic call scoring — in addition to manually scoring calls — is required to get a complete picture.
