The insights and research that
show tangible business benefit
to good customer experience.
April 2014
WHY ARE WE ALL
TALKING ABOUT
EXPERIENCE?
Because things have changed…
Macro trends are driving the world
of experiences
Market Rules
are Changing
COMPETITIVE
MOMENTUM
Everything is
a Touchpoint

ENGAGEMENT
DO WHAT YOU SAY
The way we see it…
Say something
Say it loud
Say it well
Say it often
What you do…
How you act…
What they
experience…
matters more
than what you say
In today’s world,
the experience is
the brand.
A brand promise is worthless, if the
brand’s experience doesn’t deliver.
SO IS IT
A NICE TO HAVE
OR A SMART
BUSINESS
MOVE?

Growth follows ‘verb’ brands
The Dollars And Sense Behind
Experience Optimization
According to Forrester, companies that continuously move
higher in their customer experience index scoring will see:
+ Increased revenue due to word of mouth: Incremental sales from positive word
of mouth can range from $2 million for investment firms to $176 million for airlines.
+ Reduction in churn, leading to improvements in revenue: Retained revenue
ranges from $30 million for investment firms to $1.7 billion for wireless providers.
+ Increased revenue thanks to incremental purchases of loyal customers:
The revenue benefit can range from a low of $39 million for consumer electronics
manufacturers to more than $1.3 billion for wireless service providers.
