Irrelevant Brand
• 89% of companies say they expect to compete primarily on the basis of customer experience by 2016 (Gartner)

Why is it so hard to integrate different departments and customer data?
Lack of Leadership
91% of organizations said they aspire to be among the customer experience leaders in their industry, yet only 37% had started a formal CXM initiative –
Oracle Survey, “Global Insights in Succeeding in The Customer Experience Era” (Feb. 2013.)
TOO MANY TECHNOLOGY OPTIONS!
Disparate Department Goals
• Different KPIs lead to competing efforts• Customer data lives in silos, each department has partial
insight• Same channels have disparate content
The Customer Experience Cloud
How Do You Build A Customer Experience Cloud?
It Starts With The Data
System of Record (SOR)
• For known customers, CRM is suitable
• For unknown customers, web analytics, or other anonymous data management platforms
• To recognize unknown and known customers, customer identity solution is needed.
• For real-time interactions, predictive intelligence is a must.
Case Study: General Motors
• “Customer 360” project to build a master customer database
• Uses data scientists along with primary research to create best offers for each segment
“In order to create better connections across different touch points, we knew we had to take it to the next level. That is the cost of doing business if you’re going to be competitive in customer experience”
Dave Mingle, Executive Director, Global Connected Customer Experience Program Execution at General Motors
Who Makes Sense of The Data?
Customer Insights Team
• Manages the SOR
• Develops rich personas
• Maps the customer journey
• Sets the final CX vision
• Sells it to the stakeholders
Case Study: ECCO• Unified Customer Insights team
with reps from Sales, Marketing and Product teams
• Cross-functional team creates customer journeys to share with sales/e-commerce/social teams
• Creating master dashboard to share customer data across multiple departments
“Companies need to create user journeys that can detach themselves from campaigns, you never know when people are interested in your product and that’s when you need to give them journeys to get attached to the brand”
Grimur Fjeldsted, Digital Innovation Manager, ECCO Labs
Who Acts on The Insights?
Content Management Team
• Takes findings from insights team, turns it into relevant content
• Not necessarily a content factory, but a content management hub.
• Hosts digital/creative assets.
• Sets governance for how content is used.
• Establishes guidelines for consistent voice, message and tone.
• Looks for integration between paid, earned and owned content.
Case Study: Nespresso• Sets governance for content
production process, guidelines for tone, visuals and messaging
• Orchestrates content across PR, customer service, local markets and commercial teams.
• Works closely with CRM and customer insights group
“It is first a governance exercise, and then a strategic exercise to identify all the content topics, the stakeholders, and the pillars within the organization that needs to be aligned”
Laure de Bary, Head of Social, Content and Media, Nespresso
