Digital Customer Experience at Center of Smarter Customer Experiences
MCorp Interviewed for Recently Released Research Report, “Why You Need A Digital Customer Experience Strategy.”
San Francisco, CA, May 26, 2011 --(PR.com)-- MCorp Consulting was recently interviewed for and mentioned in the Forrester Research, Inc. report, “Why You Need A Digital Customer Experience Strategy,” authored by analyst Ron Rogowski, released on May 18, 2011.
According to the report, “Companies say that digital touchpoints are critical to their customer experience efforts but don't have an approach for multi-touchpoint experience, don't know customers’ expectations, and don’t know how to represent their brands. The problem is only getting more challenging as users’ demands widen across an expanding array of digital touchpoints.”
Michael Hinshaw, President of customer experience consultancy MCorp, commented, “Today, the disruptive innovations driven by near universal customer access to digital devices – web, smartphones, apps and more – are making customers 'smarter' than ever. And it’s dramatically changing the ways that companies need to think about customer experience in the short years ahead.”
Smarter customers demand smarter customer experiences – and digital touchpoints are increasingly important in delivering them. The rapidly expanding number and importance of digital touchpoints – as well as the growing strategic role these touchpoints play across the enterprise – demand that digital customer experience strategy becomes a top priority. Without digital experience strategy tied to a broader, multi-channel customer experience strategy, organizations will continue to deliver different and often inconsistent experiences across different channels.
“Through MCorp’s customer experience research, we hear customers in virtually every industry describe some of the companies they deal with as ‘stupid.’ In a world where the majority of customers will walk after a single bad experience – and tell 80 percent of their friends about it – no company can afford to be perceived as stupid. It’s time to reassess how customer experience is designed and delivered. And prioritizing the role of digital experience central to this effort,” concluded Mr. Hinshaw.
As noted in the report’s title, “It's Time To Back Up The Claim That Digital Customer Experience Is Important.” It goes on to outline the key elements of a digital customer experience strategy, where it should come from, and how firms can get started building a strategy that’s right for their brands.
