Importance of Customer Experience

★ It costs 5 times more to acquire
a new customer than it does to
keep an existing one.

★ Happy customers spend more.

★ 70% of people leave because of
bad service, not a bad product.
★ The most successful companies
of the networked era are
service-oriented (customer and
self-service).


Today’s Marketing Landscape


Focused on Acquisition & Awareness


Stops at the sale. Nothing after
Emailed Question Phone Response Purchase Product

Visited Site
Clicked on Ad


Suﬀers from additional problems
★ Ineﬀective sales tactics – getting new customers is the
primary goal, happy customers is not.

★ Too much focus on interrupting people – At best it is
unrequested advertising. At worst its annoying and hurtful.

★ Too much focus on getting found – It all ends up as hand
waving… hey look at me.
★ Too much focus on the “sales funnel” – customer
acquisition does not work like a conveyor belt.


Lifecycle Marketing & The Holistic
Customer Experience


Optimize every interaction
★ We believe in optimizing your customer's experience
through its entire lifecycle, from the moment they ﬁrst
hear about you to the moment they passionately tell
others how great you are. We call this Lifecycle
Marketing.


Evaluate Brand Marketing Channels
★ How did my best customers ﬁrst discover my business?


Grade Acquisition Marketing
★ What was the last touch that resulted in a purchase?


Understand the Sales Cycle
★ How long does it take a visitor to purchase a plan?


Discover your Business’ Funnel
★ What content & multi-channel events lead to
conversion?


Replicate your Best Customers

★ Identify your best customers

★ Chart their path of touch points
with your company across all
channels

★ Understand what made their
customer experience
exceptional and replicate it for
future customers


How critical Social Media is in the
overall customer experience


Why Social Media?
★ Prospective customers are asking their friends about your
industry, your brand and the problems you solve

★ Your future customers are the friends and friends of
friends of your current customers, if your current
customers are happy.

★ They’re also Googling for information about you and your
industry – not to read your marketing copy but to ﬁnd out
what real people think
