Build a Strong Technology Foundation for Customer Experience Management
Design an end-to-end technology strategy to drive sales revenue, enhance marketing effectiveness, and create compelling experiences for your customers.
Book This Workshop
Not having a strategic technology approach to customer experience management (CXM) results in many difficulties:
- An application portfolio that fails to improve core metrics for marketing, sales, and customer service.
- Unnecessarily high licensing and administration costs for customer-facing applications.
- A technology ecosystem that is not built around the voice of the customer and fails to use the interaction channels and enabling applications that would bring value to the customer experience.
- Missed opportunities to use technologies like native mobile applications, social media, and customer community portals and embedded devices to drive customer acquisition and retention.
By completing this workshop and taking a systematic approach to CXM, your organization will:
- Create a technology-enablement framework that is driven by customer personas, interaction scenarios, and external market analysis.
- Build a cohesive, rationalized, and cost-effective portfolio of applications such as CRM and digital marketing suites that enable a superior customer experience.
- Enhance the alignment between IT and marketing, sales, and customer service for deploying customer-facing technologies.
- Establish best practices for CXM application deployment and governance.
