The Total Customer Experience Leaders Summit
provides both B2B and B2C case studies and translating these
innovations and insights is a huge part of the value of the conference.
Our unique idea gathering wrap-ups between sessions facilitate this
translation and were one of our most highly rated features last year.
Here on the blog we're doing a regular series of idea gathering wrap
ups, pulling together some of our favorite stories on customer
experience, customer experience design, and overall customer-centricity.

The 2012 North American Brand Performance Study by Forrester has given brands some very compelling, perhaps even scary, information. Customers are smart, more empowered then ever, and they seek innovation, trustworthiness, and convenience from brands more vocally as a result.
Inspired by the study, Sheridan Orr traces the customer journey way, way back in Retail Customer Experience with "Infographic: The evolution of customer experience." This interesting history starts with the rise of vending machines and traces the customer up to the modern day, where increasingly in each step the customer can customize and practice self-service, but in return expects smart and innovative responses.
While comparing the struggles of Kodak with the recent success of Instagram, Michael Hinshaw, Customer experience innovation strategist and co-author, ‘Smart Customers, Stupid Companies’ wrote in the Huffington Post "Your customers' changing expectations have forever shifted the ways they expect to be treated."
Forbes called out "Trust, Consistency, and Loyalty" as the "Three Attributes Of Enormously Successful Companies" saying "Self-awareness can be good for the soul; it is excellent for the company’s bottom line." When was the last time you asked yourself if your company was walking the walk?
So: Customer Experience Is Now a Strategic Priority. What does this mean? If you know your company is not providing a consistent customer experience, what can you do? These 5 Traits of Great Customer Service by Total Customer Experience Leaders Guest Blogger Flavio Martins are a good place to start. (We, of course, also recommend attending the conference.)
One thing's for sure, when you do gain a customer's loyalty it is a powerful thing. A recent study amazingly showed that "73% of travelers would choose loyalty-program benefits over a spouse if they could take just one on the road.”

Total Customer Experience Leaders Spotlight: David Blair of Rockwell Automation
In 2011, we interviewed David Blair, Director, Customer Experience,Rockwell Automation in advance of the 2011 Total Customer Experience Leader's Summit. David will be returning to the event in 2012 as our conference chair. Let's take a look back at some of his thoughts from last year:
TCEL: Tell us about a project you are working on or recently completed that you are proud of?
DB: We’ve just completed a new event-based survey that allows us to get feedback on our PROJECT business. The survey is very different from our annual customer survey in that it focuses on the individual project – from proposal through design through start-up. The goal is to both ensure a successful project, and get actionable feedback on our performance.
TCEL: What do you think is the key to a successful Customer Experience program?
DB: Senior Management support. Improving customer experience can’t be done from the bottom up. Moving the needle takes hard work and real commitment. And that comes by senior management talking about customer experience, defining performance goals, linking performance to compensation, prioritizing customer experience expenditures, and taking a personal interest in improvement projects.
TCEL: What inspired you to get in the field? What keeps you motivated?
DB: Motivation is easy. In our company, the Customer Experience Office is not just the messenger for conveying customer feedback - we’re also responsible for driving improvements. So knowing the next customer survey is right around the corner, and I’ll be the one walking through results with the CEO, I’m constantly motivated to drive feedback into actions that will improve our Customer Experience scores. I got into the field primarily because it allowed me to leverage my diverse background (sales, marketing, quality, product development) and interpersonal skills to make some real differences.
TCEL: What is one thing you’re excited about for this year’s Total Customer Experience Leaders Summit?
DB: Meeting peers. In our field, we rarely get a chance to share our approaches, successes and failures with peers. Books and consultants are helpful, but there’s really no substitute for an in-depth understanding of how other companies approach customer experience. There’s no one right way, and the approaches vary widely. My goal is to gather ideas that will form the basis for a strategy that elevates our own program to the next level, and likewise I hope I can offer ideas to help others advance.
TCEL: What is one question you are looking to get answered at this year’s Summit?
DB: My question: How do you keep the vitality in your customer experience program? It strikes me that no matter how good the research is, and how well it’s presented, the enthusiasm naturally diminishes over time.

Rockwell Automation, Inc., the world’s largest company dedicated to industrial automation and information, makes its customers more productive and the world more sustainable.

What is your customer experience THEME?
As part of ongoing customer experience training and personal development, I'm always on the lookout for a great training conference that I can attend to help develop my skills as a customer service and customer experience leader.
Being on a budget, I'm looking to get the best bang for my buck. The Total Customer Experience Leaders Summit is the conference you can't miss!
At last year's conference, a stellar group of customer experience leaders trained on the importance of establishing customer experience as a key value of your organization to compete in today's customer experience focused economy. Joe Pine led off the conference giving the state of what customers want today.
This along with more great customer service training content is waiting for you at The Total Customer Experience Leaders Summit this year!
The technology is there to help us create exceptional experiences with our customers in today's digital economy. Our only limitation is our creativity and willingness to focus on the customer.
It doesn't all need to be done in person. It doesn't require a physical handshake, or a human phone call.
What do you think? How do you show your customers you care? I'd love to hear what principles guide you to as you work to deliver a quality customer experience.

The recession isn’t slowing down this progress; instead, it is accelerating the shift to customer experience being what consumers truly want. With limited spending money, people...don’t value “stuff.” They value shared experiences...Soon, experiences will become the predominant economic offering.-Joe Pine, Cofounder, Strategic Horizons LLP
How do we create customer experience in a digital marketplace?
Experiences aren’t always done in real time and in a physical place. The key is to be consistent in the delivery of your service theme that your customers receive. Joe outlines how to create a THEME that will guide you as you design an exceptional customer experience.(T)heme the Customer Experience
- What thoughts/feelings to you want to evoke from customers? Is your entire team on board? Is your delivery consistent?
(H)armonize Customer Experience
- Do you connect your company ideals with the needs of customers?
(E)liminate Negative Customer Experience Points
- What words/actions/behaviors/triggers break down the positive experience your customers receive? What are you doing to mitigate these customer experience combustion points?
(M)ix Memorabilia in the Customer Experience
- Do you offer digital swag only your customers can enjoy? It doesn't have to be for everyone, but when you get feedback (good and bad), or an exceptional review or experience with an individual, what can you send to solidify that experience?
(E)voke the Senses in the Customer Experience
- Think of all of the touch points customers have with you. What does it look like from the customer's point-of-view? Do they feel special? Do they feel like you care? Do they feel special?

Idea Gathering: Customer Experience News: ROI Roundup
The Total Customer Experience Leaders Summit
provides both B2B and B2C case studies and translating these
innovations and insights is a huge part of the value of the conference.
Our unique idea gathering wrap-ups between sessions facilitate this

Here on the blog we're doing a regular series of idea gathering wrap ups, pulling together some of our favorite stories on customer experience, customer experience design, and overall customer-centricity. Share with us in the comments to add your thoughts!
Curious about The ROI of Customer Experience? Some recent Temkin Group research in both B2C and B2B environments as well as research by Forrester shows that "Yes, there is a revenue impact tied to customer experience."
According to that blog post on the SmartPlanet blog, the ROI is especially clear for hotels and wireless service providers, but relevant for all industries. Breaking it out:

According to that blog post on the SmartPlanet blog, the ROI is especially clear for hotels and wireless service providers, but relevant for all industries. Breaking it out:
"Forrester found that the impact of customer experience on hotels and wireless service carriers was more than $1 billion for each industry. For hotels, the potential impact is $1.36 billion, while for carriers it is $1.3 billion."Meanwhile in a report by J.D. Power and Associates, we learned that a fully satisfying customer experience (from beginning to end) can trump low prices. According to this post:
""While value is important, consumers want more than simply the lowest price," said J.D. Powers' Gina Pingitore, chief research officer, in a press release. "They expect a superior product that is delivered in a compelling presentation, through fast and easy-to-understand processes that are supported by responsive and concerned people. In addition, the price must be perceived as fair and competitive."One company that could walk away from this feeling positive? Best Buy. In this article by Retail Traffic Mag, the author recommends
"Closing 50 underperforming stores is a move in the right direction for operational efficiency, but Best Buy shouldn’t be competing with Amazon.com on price, they say—it should be competing on superior customer experience."Overall, we're taking away one lesson from all this research: Good customer experiences have a proven ROI, and can be real differentiators for a company. Do you agree?

Drive change and optimize your sales force by measuring customer feedback through the entire customer experience at the Total Customer Experience Leaders Summit, an event that not only redefines customer centricity, but explains what this means for you, your brand and your business.

Idea Gathering: Customer Experience News: What's "Good Enough" For You?
The Total Customer Experience Leaders Summit provides both B2B and B2C case studies and translating these innovations and insights is a huge part of the value of the conference. Our unique idea gathering wrap-ups between sessions facilitate this translation and were one of our most highly rated features last year.
Here on the blog we're doing a regular series of idea gathering wrap ups, pulling together some of our favorite stories on customer experience, customer experience design, and overall customer-centricity. Share with us in the comments to add your thoughts!
This week on the blog, we wrote about the impact of a customer-centric company culture and talked with Peter Dixon, Senior Partner, Creative Director, Prophet, about the power of creating small moments of delight for your customers.
Meanwhile, Kate Leggett was asking on the Forrester blog, Is "Good Enough" Customer Service Good Enough? arguing that the real focus needs to be a consistent, reproducible experience across all touch points. But is this a false dichotomy? In an ideal world wouldn't you have both moments of delight for customers as well as the removal of experience pain points?
Another big question this week: Are customer loyalty programs broken? This week Mashable's Webtrends series posted 2 Ways to Fix Customer Loyalty Programs, pointing out that many consumers see these programs as irrelevant, but that increased targeting and better use of mobile technology could remove some of the issues.
So how do you target your customers better? In this piece on MyCustomer.com, Professor Hugh Wilson from the Cranfield School of Management "claims that when it comes to experience design, marketers need to overhaul their thinking" and segment customers based on channel preferences, not demographics.
In an upcoming webinar, IIR will be hosting Joe Stanhope, Senior Analyst, Forrester Research and Annie Weinberger, VP of Marketing, Autonomy an HP Company on "The Future of Online Testing" and testing and targeting for more successful customer interactions online. Perhaps we'll gain some more insight then. Please mention priority code: MWJ0020-BLOG when registering.

An organization's culture can be a potent, powerful force contributing to its success or failure. Some organizations define their culture as "a culture to win", a "sales culture" or a "culture of excellence".

Podcast: Peter Dixon on Customer Experience
Peter Dixon, Senior Partner, Creative Director, Prophet, will be speaking on Understanding and Delivering Customer Experiences at our upcoming Total Customer Experience Leader's Summit. I caught up with him last week to record a quick podcast where we discussed his work with Prophet and the keys to building a great customer experience program.
Peter focuses a lot of the "moments of truth" for a company, creating an emotional connection and the small moments of delight that can pay off big if a company is willing to invest in them. As he put it "big brands doing small things."
Listen to our podcast here for more customer experience insights.
