Customer Experience (CX) is emerging as a multidisciplinary field. It’s not just operations, marketing, sales, design, or insights… all of the above is required to create an immersive and seamless experience for your customers.

“Customer Experience Management (CEM) and Customer Relationship Management (CRM) are the same, right?”
Not quite.
While it may be true that at their core, both systems revolve around the key interactions a customer has with your brand, CRMs and CEMs serve distinctly different purposes and operate from two contrasting angles.

So it’s 2018, and with the New Year come new objectives and new challenges. For many executives at least part of those objectives probably includes achieving a target NPS score. The target scores could, in theory, range anywhere from +100 to -100 (based on a calculation of top two-box minus bottom-seven box responses to the likelihood to recommend question). But, of course, it’s unlikely that a company could stay in business too long if it were continually being scored by customers at those extreme lows. No brand is loved by each and every one of its customers.
