Have you thought about the effectiveness of traditional customer experience (CX) programs versus the emerging field of customer journey management? Traditional CX, often centred around feedback and surveys, is a subset of a broader customer-centric journey analytics and orchestration program. We think many businesses are starting to question the value of these traditional approaches.
The “Say Do” Gap: A Fundamental Flaw
David Ogilvy once said that people don’t think how they feel, don’t say what they think, and don’t do what they say. This “Say Do” gap highlights a significant issue with traditional survey-centric CX programs. They rely on what customers say, not what they do. Studies have shown that customer behavior often differs from their stated preferences. For instance, in an investment game study, the alignment between promises and actions was inconsistent, illustrating how customer choices can contradict their feedback.
Limitations of Traditional CX Programs
Traditional survey-based CX management does not map customer journeys, resulting in an incomplete view of customer behavior and motivations. Since only a small fraction of customers provide feedback, these programs lack the depth needed to understand customer actions and reasons behind them. Moreover, they often struggle to measure the effectiveness of their CX efforts due to a lack of real behavioral data.
The Solution: Customer Journey Analytics
The key to overcoming these challenges lies in customer journey analytics. This approach allows businesses to track customer behavior across channels and time, providing a single, unified view of the customer. By understanding why customers act in certain ways, companies can make informed decisions that drive revenue, improve retention, and enhance customer satisfaction.
