448: How Will Consumer Sentiment Affect CX in 2021?
There’s no going around the pandemic when we’re talking about customer experience, so it’s crucial for every business to consider what will return to normal and what will stay as it was for most of 2020. Learn which pandemic-driven customer experience changes are here to stay and which ones will revert to pre-pandemic normal in this episode.
449: Ross Wainwright, Alida: Truth in Action
As Alida’s leader, Ross Wainwright firmly believes in a world where the best business decisions are those made with customers, not for them. We’re excited to chat with him about how he led Alida’s cultural, branding, technological, product and service transformation in the midst of a pandemic, and the valuable lessons in the process.
450: Gain Insights Through Community
We don’t normally think about how useful active communities can be, so we don’t always engage with them to make them more active and consequently useful as sources of insights. Your customers have a wealth of insights on ways that you can improve your product and overall customer experience. Nurturing an active community develops your relationships with your customers and gives you access to those insights.
451: Ramon Ray, Small Business Experience
Customer experience is important for small businesses, and technology has become a fundamental ingredient in the customer journey that customers expect from businesses that they work with. We’re excited to chat with Ramon Ray about the big role of technology in the improvement of customer experience and how to select which tech to incorporate in your customer journey.
