“Today’s most successful brands are winning on customer experience.” ~ Heather Campbell, Chief Experience Officer, ARG.
“Today’s most successful brands are winning and differentiating themselves with customer experience,” said Heather Campbell, Chief Experience Officer, ARG. “It’s no longer a choice, but a necessity that ultimately translates into higher profits and shareholder value.

New technologies are changing the game
Businesses face a number of challenges when it comes to driving customer loyalty and retention – from ongoing labor shortages to the shift to remote and hybrid work to evolving expectations. Yet, with customer satisfaction ranking as high in importance as a company’s products or services, it is imperative that companies look to improve and measure their efforts around CX.

Campbell said, “People abandon excellent solutions when they come with poor support. Yet, many businesses are using legacy platforms and not taking advantage of the array of new technologies that can help them improve the experience, often while reducing long-term costs. Further, CX and marketing leaders often overlook the tools available today that allow you to meet your customers where they are and make the interaction more efficient simply because they are unaware of their existence. The application of these tools as an overlay to or replacement for existing systems is a game changer.”
Within the Customer Experience: Market Insights & Decision Guide, ARG outlines what customers want from their interactions with businesses, how remote and hybrid work trends are impacting customer experience, and key factors that businesses should consider when developing strategies for optimizing customer service and identifying opportunities to improve business outcomes. From the role that employee experience plays in customer satisfaction to selecting technology providers, the Market Insights & Decision Guide also offers use cases for leveraging automation, including omnichannel self-service solutions; guidance on processes that can deliver a consistent and frictionless experience for the consumer; and key steps business should take in creating a digital-first experience for customers.
“Forward-looking leaders move IT into a power position when they leverage technology to improve CX and drive greater corporate returns,” added John O. Cooper V, Senior Solution Specialist, UCaaS/CCaaS, ARG.
