Think Experience Management (XM) is simply the latest jargon du jour? Think again. XM provides immediate feedback about how people perceive a company’s brand and products – as well as employee and customer satisfaction. For CEOs, that’s a powerful tool which promises to bridge the gap between understanding how effectively their company operates and how stakeholders experience key aspects of their company.

You probably said “customer” without even thinking about it, right? And you would be correct! But, to design your service experience intentionally around your customers’ needs and wants, you must have a deep understanding of who your customer is.
At Disney Institute, we examine the idea that too many organizations limit themselves to a tunnel-vision approach while designing their customer experience. They think: “We know our customers don’t like to wait in long lines” or “We know they expect us to answer the phone after so many rings.”

CUSTOMER experience or CX is essentially the interaction between any enterprise with its customers that could be in the form of product awareness, discovery, purchases, and delivery of services.
Companies with impeccable CX strategies and implementation often reap the benefit in many ways, including increased customer satisfaction rates, reduced customer rate, and increased revenue.
And accordingly more and more senior executives and business leaders are shifting their focus on their CX strategies and making it their companies top priority, on the firm belief that investment in enhancing CX will be beneficial in both short and long-term for an enterprise.

Go with your gut is an old adage that we throw around quite often in the English language. It means follow your intuition or instincts (based on your “gut” feeling). However, when we apply this expression to business world, it isn’t always fitting, much less advisable – especially when it comes to A/B testing. Used to test multiple variations of a web page or app screen, A/B Testing is one of the most popular methods for improving conversion rates. According to eConsultancy, approximately 61 percent of companies carry out less than five tests every month. However, what many of these companies miss in their testing strategies is a concrete way of constructing hypotheses for future A/B testing. Thankfully, there is online customer feedback…

Every experience we go through is connected to our power as consumers. And experience surveys have become part of nearly every brand interaction we have.
Last month, I went to a museum and was solicited for feedback. My grocery store surveys me on my delivery experience. As consumers, we asked to be empowered to give feedback… we certainly got what we wished for! So then why are we still having bad experiences? If brands care so much about our feedback, why there is no impact to our journeys?

Customer feedback surveys are big business. But before you switch off, there is no reason why retailers of all sizes cannot benefit from them — on and off line, even little mom and pop stores. The problem for a small business owner is where to start? How can you be sure you are talking to the right people and delivering a good survey experience?
The people who take part in feedback surveys believe that the companies they are responding to genuinely care about their customers; this is likely a contributing factor as to why they answer a survey in the first place. If constructed well, these surveys not only provide retailers with key data on how to improve the customer purchase experience, but also create the perception of a brand that truly cares about their customers.
