It’s 2020 and the world has completely turned on its head. Businesses have found themselves scrambling to adapt to the new regulations, searching for creative ways to maintain the same levels of efficiency with a remote workforce. This movement is so large scale, in fact, that Time magazine is calling it, ‘the world’s largest work from home project’. And what’s more, this way of working is likely here to stay for some time, even after the crisis is over.

We hear companies throwing around common phrases like, ‘Customer centricity is at the heart of our organisation’ and ‘We’re very much in tune with the needs of our customers’. Not surprisingly, seeing as how according to a study carried out by Bain and company, 80% of organisations they surveyed believed that they were providing a superior customer experience to their customers. Meanwhile, just 8% of their customers shared this opinion. Only eight percent! This is a huge disconnect and gap in perception, one that is commonly referred to as the customer experience gap.

Conversational surveys such as Wizu massively improve the survey experience by offering a more engaging, interactive and personalised survey. In some ways conversational surveys are going back to the old-style face to face interviews by gaining deeper insight through conversations. However rather than deploying hundreds of interviewers armed with a clipboard, you can utilise one chatbot to conduct your surveys.

It’s no secret healthcare has improved with technology. I can schedule an appointment with my doctor, view my medical record, and fill a prescription all from an app on my phone. Robotics has changed the way surgery is completed. Human organs are being printed using 3D printers. However, with all these amazing steps towards healthcare of the future, we are missing one important factor: digital user experience.

User experience (UX) design is the process of building relationships between products and prospects or customers through a digital or physical experience that involves engineering, marketing, graphical, industrial and interface designs. UEGroup CEO Tony Fernandes in an interview with CMSWire called UX design an “interactive brand experience that takes the place of establishing credibility and connection in the way that logos and taglines did in the past.”

With every business going digital with the aim of taking their products and services to a global market, it is also important to understand that competition is rising by the day.
As smaller businesses struggle to keep up with the demanding digital channels, there are also bigger players in every industry that make the going more challenging - especially with greater advertising budgets.
Now without customers, a business is sure to fail. But how do you pull consumers to what you have to offer when they have so many options in the market?

For your business to be successful, you’re probably doing everything you can to satisfy your customers. But how do you know if your efforts are actually paying off? We’re all aware that in today’s digital age, where social media is a powerful tool in the hands of people, customer experience can make or break a business. Both happy and unhappy customers wield much greater power than their counterparts from a decade ago. A happy post or an angry rant – both can go viral on social media, affecting your business in a way that you never imagined!

How many of us follow the same purchasing habits today as we did even five years ago? Very few. How many businesses rely on the same sales and marketing approach as they did five years ago?
More than you would think.
In the rapidly evolving digital era, the rules have been (and are still being) fundamentally rewritten. It used to be the supplier who created interest in their products and services, pushing out information and offers as part of lead generation campaigns. But now it is the consumer who is firmly in charge of their journey to purchase.
