Intelligent Sourcing magazine recently hosted a dinner in collaboration with Teleperformance in London where Mike Havard, CEO of Ember Group, and Julian Herbert from Everest Group discussed the future of the customer journey. The team from Teleperformance was also there to give feedback on the role of the customer experience (CX) supplier in managing modern customer journeys.
The phrase “customer journey” has been discussed and argued over so much now that it’s in danger of becoming meaningless – which is a shame because at its best, analysis and understanding of it can improve client relations and ultimately make the bottom line healthier.
Ultimately each business is unique and in many cases today the customer journey will be unique because we have moved so far in just one decade that it is now impossible to draw a simple step-by-step description of how a customer first hears about your brands and then moves all the way to making a purchase and (hopefully) becoming a fan.
