2. THINKING BEYOND THE OBVIOUS
#WORKSHOP MOTIVATION
In today’s highly competitive business landscape, savvy business leaders are recognizing that best
way to have an excellent competitive advantage and create lasting customer loyalty is by optimizing
the entire experience for customers across all points of interaction and in all activities. All channels of
contact with customers must provide a consistent and desired experience. However, great customer
experience does not happen by accident. Managing Customer Experience for best customer satisfaction
must be consistent, intentional and valuable. Achieving the goal of excellent customer experience
and brand loyalty requires a customer service commitment that is proactive, continuously
responsive and delivers on the promise to customers.
Customer Service is more important than ever and a company’s reputation for satisfying clients has
never been so vulnerable. With a renewed focus on the consumer– the role and position of Customer
Services in business is drawing more and more attention. With the consumer being placed “legally”
at the centre of every interaction, how businesses deal with customers is becoming highly critical. In
fact, your business success seems dependent on how you engage your customers. New laws like the
Consumer Protection Act has changed the way companies and organisations engage their
customers.
The growing popularity and acceptance of social media is also giving new avenues to the customer
to voice their impression about your services. The consumer has never been more powerful and their
comments on the web have the potential to spread virally in an instant. Reacting quickly can often
quell negative comments and amplify positive ones. Customer Services today demands both effective
service and robust communication – Social Media and other online digital marketing platforms can
be used as powerful tools to better improve your customers’ experience. In essence, the new business
environment contains a number of challenges and opportunities. If you to want to better navigate
this changing customer centric landscape and successfully use social media to enable a
customer experience that exceeds the expectations of your customers, then this Managing
Customer Experience workshop is specifically designed for you!
