Winning the Customer Experience Race

Here’s a hard truth about the modern consumer: they have an unrelenting lack of loyalty. Personalisation matters but only when it adds value to the customer experience and is consistent across all channels. Meet their needs everywhere they are present, and your customers will stick with you. Mess up and you’re out.

When you consider Australian consumers plan to dedicate about 35% of their average monthly spending on discretionary purchases, the value of the customer experience begins to add up quickly.*

But here’s the challenge. Consumers have never been more fickle. They expect a flawless experience with a brand and that can only be delivered by 1:1 in every touchpoint.

They want to have one conversation.

• They expect you to be in the right place, at the right time, with the right information for the moment.
• They want consistent interaction across all channels, both online and offline.
• They want to know that you see them and even more importantly, that you know them.
• They demand privacy and data security (and who can blame them?)

Get the customer experience right and you have them for life. Get it wrong – or even take a misstep – and you could lose them forever.

Delivering the kind of customer experience consumers reward with long-term brand loyalty isn’t easy. It takes technology and it takes the smarts and experience to know how to use that technology in complex environments. It’s why Sitecore and Deloitte Digital have joined forces.
