A client experience strategy(cx)should be an
integral part in the overall marketing and growth
strategy.

feedback and furthering the relationship

21. Customer Experience as a competitive advantage
Client experience is looking at the overall journey or
experience of the client and seeking ways to
improve each touch point to stand out from the
competition.
Know your brand promse
Branding is about more than just a great logo, a
catchy tagline or vibrant colors.
22. Customer Experience as a competitive advantage
Those things are important. However, branding is
also about the promise that you make to your
clients.
It is telling your story and making a promise of
what your clients can expect from your company.
Many companies overlook their brand promise.
Know your company values and what you want to
consistently express to your clients.

Knowing what your client is currently experiencing
on their journey with your Sacco is important.
Stepping back and evaluating every customer touch
point is a challenge.
We can become laser-focused on improving the
experience with our core product or service but
forget to look at every touch point, such as the
experience customers have when interacting with
the receptionist, navigating the website and
receiving loan statements

Client Feedback
Client feedback is one of the most powerful tools in
your arsenal, but so we overlook seeking thoughtful
and targeted feedback.
Being clear on how our clients feel about our sacco,
your brand and the services we provide is critical.
Seeking this information allows our client to know
you are making an investment in them, and it
communicates that our sacco is seeking to improve
and grow.

Review of our internal processes.
Client experience must be about more than one
department. Our CX strategy must involve
evaluating the entire client journey, including
assessing which departments touch our clients.

leaders or a handful of specific employees. How a
company handles client
26. Understanding the Customer Development Journey
Review of our internal processes.
How our saccos handles client experience must be
part of our organzation’s culture.
How responsive are we towards each another? Do
departments seek feedback from other departments
on their experiences with each other?
Is there an expectation of constant improvement
and efficiency?
27. Understanding the Customer Development Journey
Review of our internal processes.
When all of these aspects are made part of our
sacco’s strategy, it becomes a competitive
advantage.
It creates loyalty with clients and involves both
clients and employees. It isn't enough for clients or
customers to have a mediocre experience with our
organization. The stakes are too high. The
competition is fierce.
28. Understanding the Customer Development Journey

Every interaction contributes to the overall
experience and perception of the company.

initiatives should be a key strategy that engages
customers, clients and sacco stakeholders alike.
