I recently read the 2017 Customer Experience (CX) Index report from Forrester and was a little shocked at the main takeaway: Customer experience quality has worsened since 2016, and not just by a small amount. For every brand’s score that rose, two brands’ scores fell; and overall losses in index points were bigger than gains. Not only that, but the CX Index also showed zero improvement in customer experience scores by industry average. Ouch. Not a great look in a time when the vast majority of marketers cite customer experience as the number one way to excel past their competitors. So, we’ve clearly got a wakeup call on our hands: Consumers aren’t pleased with the quality of customer experience they’re receiving. So, what does this mean for our businesses?When You’re Not Winning CX, You’re Losing (In More Ways Than One)
