What Does Customer Experience Mean?

Customer Experience (in short CX) is about the feelings, memories and perceptions a customer has with your brand’s services and products. An experience starts long before you buy a product, it is every interaction someone has with your brand. It might start from the ads that generated their first awareness, to calls they make with your service team long after the sale was made.

Think about the last time you received a new phone. You might consider the technical details very heavily when you decided to buy, but usually, it’s the experience that you remember. Emotions – like the feeling when unboxing your new phone – stick in your brain longer than the hard facts.

That’s why, whether we’re providing a product or service, in the real world or online, our top priority is simply to give the customer the best possible experience. We don’t live in a world with products that are inherently great or terrible, sold by companies with good or bad customer service. There are only good and bad experiences.

What Is Customer Experience Management?

Customer experience management (in short CXM) includes all processes, strategies and departments that impact customer expectations, engagement, satisfaction and loyalty. It’s more than just customer relationship management (CRM) and affects marketing, sales and customer service. It is about tracking and measuring how customers feel about your brand. In combination with hard figures like sales data, as well as designing activities, you are able to improve every aspect of the customer experience.

ROI and Benefits of Customer Experience Management

With comparison websites, reviews, and the shift from in-store sales to faceless online transactions, it seems like our purchase decisions are only becoming more objective. However, fewer opportunities to connect emotionally means that the handful of brands who are still able to do so enjoy outsized benefits. Even if experience management sounds quite superfluous – in the end, it’s our positive experience with a product or service that makes us recommend it to others. That’s why the holistic approach of managing your customer’s experiences will pay off.

Therefore, you need to track every interaction your customer has with your brand with CX software (SAP CX suite). Collect all data from your relationship, and know your customers’ preferences and habits to deliver the best experience possible.
