I have lied about this. I’d wager you have, too. Moreover, per Groupon’s latest survey, most people lie about being happy about the gifts they receive at the holidays. When I read this study, I wondered if we lie to people about our gift receiving experience, isn’t it also likely we lie about other experiences too? Does that also mean our customers lie to us about how they feel about their Customer Experience?

Company Culture Trickles Down From the Top. The most successful businesses and brands typically follow the same path when it comes to leadership. If your employees and company culture are a priority to you, your customers and their experiences will be a priority to your employees. Leading by example is critical to the success of your company and is the beginning of what is known as the “waterfall effect.

Imagine going on a cruise and having the ship know your every desire – sometimes even before you do. That’s the goal of Carnival Corporation’s new Ocean Medallion technology , a wearable device that will debut on the Regal Princess cruise ship later this year. It follows on the heels of Disney’s MagicBand and a similar device on Royal Caribbean cruises, but it goes even farther in predicting and responding to customer needs and desires.

Over the last decade, journey maps have transformed from obscure design artifacts to common customer experience tools. And they’re not just for CX professionals anymore. When I recently met with a group of three dozen cross- industry customer service, operations, and technology professionals, most of their eyes lit up when I mentioned journey maps—and several couldn’t wait to tell me about the maps they’d developed themselves.

A question I get sometimes: “Of course we want to value customers, but is doing so definitely tied to revenue?” The answer is unequivocally yes. I’ve been talking about this for years, as have many of my colleagues, professional acquaintances, and friends. If you boost customer experience, you boost revenue. Yes, yes, and yes.
