What does a real customer-centric culture look like that’s built to win?  

Customer-centric companies put the customer at the center of all they do, which means the entire workforce takes the time to understand who customers are and then use that understanding to intentionally design better experiences for them.

Too often, companies believe they know what’s best and create customer experiences based on inside-out thinking, only to end up creating frustration and dissatisfaction.

During this podcast episode, you’ll hear Stacy Sherman and Annette Franz, Founder and CEO of CX Journey Inc. explore customer-centric businesses, examine the ways they implement strategies, and provide actionable advice for you to outperform competitors.

CX Topics:

  • What does “putting the customer in “customer experience” mean?
  • Actionable tips and key principles from her newest book “Build to Win”  
  • Views on linking customer experience metrics to employee bonuses. 
  • Effective tactics to really understand customers.
  • Advice to those who don’t know where to start in journey mapping & the game-changer of doing it right. 
  • Annettes views on CX trends during the up & down economic times 
  • Best leadership advice received.
  • A fun fact people may not know about Annette, before entering the CX field 
  • Advice to her younger 20-year-old self based on what she knows now and says to her two boys.

    Remember:

    Customer experience success does not occur overnight or automatically but rather happens when individuals and teams intentionally put customers first and do so consistently.
